As for the cleaning-up, I (Megan) am home in Sheridan for a few days finally going through my old room and getting rid of my stuff. My mom has been using the room as her office for a few years, but I am ready to know that I have all the stuff that I will EVER want from it. It has been fun to re-live many memories, buy I am shocked at how much stuff I kept around for so long. It has been quite invigorating to throw old stuff away.
I have realized a few things as I have done this:
- I had wonderful growing-up and high school experiences with very supportive parents and siblings, crazy and clean friends, and wonderful teachers and church leaders
- I am very spoiled living in West Jordan with curb-side paper recycling
- You forget about a lot of things, both important and not-important, that can be remembered by just reading a short phrase or seeing an old picture
- I would rather take the time to read- and look-through things (old notes, programs, cards, etc.) now than keep them around for another 9 years thinking that I will look at them "some day"
I love Sheridan and Wyoming in general in June. Thanks to all the rain, everything is so beautiful! I love the smell, the sights, and the feel of being away from the city and in the wide open west. I will post some pictures that I took along the way next week (or the week after, depending on the time I have and the different pictures I take.) I can't wait to show them all.

7 D. in a W.
8 R that pull S. S. (or 9 if you count R.)
12 M. in a Y.
I look forward to trying to figure out your submissions.
Well, I didn't get numbers 10, 13, 14, or 18...what a letdown. A nice diversion though.

The puzzle came from Games Magazine many years ago (20+). It is still popular today--I loved it too.
So, how much of your junk was mine rewarmed over? Hopefully not too much! Wish I was there too. I always seem to head "home" in July, when everything is less green and much hotter.
