Happy New Year 1981

The hottest winter ever for Vernal no snow no rain a real drought.
The boys are really helping out around the house because Darolyne bent sick because of being pregnant.

I am now teaching Elementary Education classes for USU. This as an Adjunct.

I played basketball for the Cardiac Kids and scored 24 points in game that ended in a tie 98 to 98.
Hostages are still being held in Iran.

Darolyne still has morning sickness, It is January 9, 1981

This is my 9th year in the Vernal Stke High Council. They are going to make a Davis 3rd Ward.

Jamie is playing in a YBA basketball team it is called the Cockroaches.

All 3 boys are doing good in school, I am proud of them.

January 14..Went to ALC with Randy Biggs to talk to the Elementary School Principals of Salt Lake City Schools. I spoke about Gifted and Talented students and programs. Their Superintendent Donald Thomas came to the meeting. I was asked to apply for a Principalship for next year. Then I went to Eastmont Middle School in Sandy. Salt Lake was smogged in for 43 straight days. It took $40 for gas to go to Salt Lake and back. Gasoline is about $1.17 a gallon.
