Went to Fillmore for:

• Unclaimed property - Yester day we received a letter from the unclaimed property division of the state of Utah.  It was a little over $1100.  We had to take it too Fillmore and have a notary sign it.  We needed our driver's license and Social Security cards. 
• Food storage - We bought #10 cans of storage food for Robert, Lisa, and Eric.  Three cans each.  Potato flakes, dehydrated onions, flour, and a bag of  Cocoa mix.
• Some groceries - Just groceries.

Roofing Shingles    The hasn't been any roofing activity for a couple of days.  It was different today.  Ropers brought shingles for our house and garage.  The had a big fork lift that was used to get the shingles at roof level.  Two of them and later a third man came to unload the pallet and put the shingles on the ridge.  There were three or four pallets.  Picture is of the back or south side of the house.

 Next picture is the front or north side of the house. 

The front of the house has not yet been stripped clean of shingles.  A trailer is backed up next to the house with some plywood place as a slide so the shingles will end up in the trailer.  It takes a lot of maneuvering to back the trailer into that position with out much room to twist and turn.

Craft Show    There are quite a few crafty people in Holden and they organized a craft sale that started at four and ended at eight.  Carol bought a some towels that hang on the oven door.  They are gifts for some of our kids. 

Hanging Christmas balls   Yesterday morning we drove to Orem, Utah.  Carol was invited to a luncheon at Gary and O'leah's home.   Carol's sisters, Margery and Nyleen,  and her sister in-law, Leslie Peay were there.  They were honoring O'leah's whose health has really declined in the last few years.

Hair cut   Carol dropped me off in Linden where Miles cut my hair.  After that we had lunch in a Mexican restaurant in American Fork.  It was very good, and Miles paid for it.  I was a little slow to get my card out.  The picture below shows Christmas bulbs hanging from the ceiling.  I took a picture with and idea that we could do that in our house. 

Today I gave it a try.  I could not find a good place to hang them.  Finally in our family room.  It has a vaulted ceiling.  I hung them on the wall on the west wall where the vaulted ceiling begins.  I used some string from the chicken feed bags which are the same color as the wall.  Two of the fell loose so I used more tape to hold them.  The ceiling that is shown is in the kitchen,

Comments welcomed.
