Four pots were set up to boil water in. (See picture). After adding our extras (see table of extras) to our "egg bags", the bags were put in the boiling water for about 15 minutes. (See the bags in the pot). We had to put our names on the bags so we would know which bag belonged to who.
The eggs came out perfect and delicious. After they were cooked, we opened our bags and slipped the eggs on to our plates. They came out like a rolled omlette. Try it sometime. It's a healthy way to cook omlettes - no grease!
We ended our morning with entertainment from Leo and Wes.
More "old" friends joined us in Fun Valley. Connie and Wayland from Stamford surprised us this year. Delton went to high school with Wayland and Connie. Delton and Wayland played football together on their State Championship team. They joined us for a cookout and campfire. See us sitting around the fire. Carol and Gene (also pictured) also came up for a few weeks. We went to church with them in Grapevine.
Before the campfire, our neightbor, Mark, showed Wayland some of his carved canes.
We had a surprise visit from our POP-UP!!!!!
We owned a pop-up camper before we bought our motor home. We sold our pop-up to Steve and Linda. Last year we "bumped into" Steve and Linda in Fun Valley. This year we also "bumped into" Steve and Linda, but this time our old pop-up came with them. Actually, they bought a small RV and sold the pop-up to one of their kids, who joined them for a vacation in Fun Valley this year. Pictured is our old pop-up in Fun Valley.
Joni was very sentimental about seeing our old pop-up. It was the beginning of our new life of RVing. We had many many memories and fun times in it.
Delton taught a Bible Study again this year in Fun Valley. We had a good class and met some more great people who attended the class. Pictured are Carolyn, Forrest, Claire and Roger. Carolyn and Forrest just started fulltiming, having only been at it for a few months. So far they are loving the life style. Delton and I recommend this life style to everyone. Try it! You might like it!
Line dancing is a fun way to dance without a partner!!!! Delton doesn't dance! Joni enjoyed learning to line dance this year. It was easy since Sherry, the Fun Valley Line Dance Teacher, was parked right next to us.
Twice a week, the Wild Rose Band played in the Big Barn or the Square Dance Hall. Venita and Hank (shown in the back row) of the the Wild Rose Band, became special friends of ours this year. They both play guitar and sing. Many came to dance to their music. Joni joined the group this year. Line dancing, the Cotton Eyed Joe, Electric Slide, Two Step and waltz were among the many dances.
Delton played alot of golf this year, with the Fun Valley golf group. Mark, our neighbor, became his golf buddy and the two of them played twice a week in Alamosa. The Fun Valley Golf Cart (school bus) brought the golf group to the course which was about 50 miles east of Fun Valley. Mark and Delton got very serious about their game, taking lessons and hitting practice balls on a regular basis. Can you teach an old dog new tricks???? Kidding aside, hopefully they improved this summer and will enjoy the game more than ever.
We had a great summer this year. We guess that our Fun Valley family has extended to about 100 people. But now it's time to move on! See you next year in Colorado!
