First day of "Rest"

After the long ride to Blackfoot we had a short ride to Idaho Falls, 35 miles. We arrived at Aunt Evelyn's new house very tired. Uncle Bob and Aunt Sharon dropped by to visit and we all went for dinner at the authentic mexican van parked in front of Aunt Evelyn's office. The next day, after Paul and I spoke at the Blackfoot Rotary meeting, Wayne, Ben, Paul and I played frisbee golf at the park in Idaho Falls. It was Wayne's first time and he is hooked and good but not as good as Ben, the veteran player. That night Aunt Evelyn treated us to "Oklahoma" performed by many Butler relatives. Rick had a speaking and singing part, with his wife and daughter, brother Steven and his daughter and son joining the stage in the chorus.

The next night we had a cook-out hosted by Aunt Evelyn. With all the Perrys it looked like a min-family reunion. It was great to see many aunts, uncles and cousins and Uncle Bob kept the little ones entertained with his guitar. After a hard day of biking to Swan Valley, we were invited to Uncle Bob and Aunt Sharon's for dinner. It was bittersweet to be on our way to the next state in the morning.
