Pioneer Days "24 of July"

The celebration of Pioneer Days this year was without parades, fireworks, and pioneers, but it was a great day with some of our family and friends. The Texas brisket was to die for. Tyler did an amazing job cooking it (President and Sister Rose would have been proud) and just as wonderful was Tosha and Ronda's rest of the meal. Thanks for the great meal. I wish the whole family could have enjoyed it. My mouth is still watering. Additional thanks to Breklyn and Tage for the dancing art man video set up and filming.

Benson Family Reunion

It was great to see everyone and spend a little quality time.

Great Grandpa James Nye was a skilled carpenter that turned the posts for the Tabernacle stair railings. He turned them on an old treadle lathe. It was like riding a bicycle while cutting wood with a sharp steel blade. Check out the work he did in the Paris Tabernacle and his home to the south.
