Stetson just went with his scout troop to Garden City for the weekend and biked 50 miles all the way around Bear Lake. They also slept over night up there and the high was 58 degrees. It was a little cold. Stetsons good friend Kade was his buddy as they road around the Lake. I guess Kade thought that his jacket would be too much weight and so as they started out he didn't want to wear it. Even though it was nearly 35 degrees. Not many miles into the event Kade started to stop responding to Stetson questions and Stetson could tell that Kade was getting really cold, too cold. It seems that they were required to put their leaders phone number on a wrist band. Stetson says that was a small miracle on behalf of Kade. Stetson had to flag down another rider and use their phone so that he could contact his leader and get him to come to Kade's aid. Lee was able to come and get them and Kade warmed up, got his jacket and was able to finish the race. It seems that there is always something exciting happening in the life of Stetson.
All of the kids are getting into a really great routine with school. Stetson wakes himself up every morning for classes at the high school and gets himself there. Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays the girls and I work together to do a variety of writing, spelling, typing, language arts, history and math. There is also the occasional book on CD or fairly constant morning reading of scripture and other great literature.
