We set a record breaking temperature for the day at 90 degrees! Went on a walk with Petra early and hosted Bruce for dinner. Got pumpkins and candy corn in between. Osten was very happy the Oklahoma Sooners beat Texas. Fun day for the Olson family!

day 7 1/2
Another morning at RFPME for me. Felt great to be back and teaching lessons. I got a lovely rose from a student this morning. Walked home at noon and took a four mile walk around the section—cascade to Wasson to cemetery to main and back to cascade. Dinner at Juniors with Brad and now watching Osten and the wildcats play Rice Lakr on YouTube. We’re up 17-0 in the third quarter.

Another half day at school and it felt good! I plan on doing day 7 1/2 tomorrow. Brad made the most incredible egg bake for dinner tonight. It was a great day!

day 6.5
This morning I went in to school and saw lots of neat things at the farm field trip. We saw bees, ducks, chickens, beef cattle and had a tasty snack of beef sticks, honey and fresh milk.

day 6
I was at school a full day today. It was workshop, so not overly demanding, but there were meetings and thinking required. It felt good.
After school, we watched #83 play against Hudson. We lost 20-12, but he played well and felt good. After practice, we went to a basketball meeting for this winter season. Love seeing him play.
