A Joyful Day

This is a beautiful picture of the temple Eileen Petersen took early this morning from her apartment, which looks right at the Temple.

We started the day by going to a fresh produce market. After are shopping and a short rest, we went to a ceramic shop. Sister Petersen got a group picture of us when we came out of the store.
I brought a small painted ceramic dish.
They showed us around the shop. Most of the workers are handicap, and Frank is talking to the manager. She spoke very good English as well as Spanish. Pres. Petersen is sitting in the store area of the business and is petting a very friendly dog.
More workers at the pottery shop. The two men are making necklaces with clay beads. In the next picture the man is showing the lady how to paint the ceramic birds. Across from the shop was a park with this big tree. Notice the big limbs.

Next we went to a place where they painted wooden trays, frames, plates, and even a childs desk. They use bright colors and paint fruit, cats, chickens, sun. Off the painting area they had a small patio with a lot of potted plants.
We ended the day going to a really good restaurant, Hacienda Real. The 11th of June is the Gibbons wedding anniversary. He offered to take us all out for dinner in celebration. The first picture is in front of the restaurant, Halls, Kitleys, Thompsons, Gibbons, Petersens, Frank. In the bathroom of the restaurant they had this beautiful orchid and some mouth wash to use. This is the kitchen area used to cook the meats.

The waiters sang to the Gibbons and gave them this Feliz 47 Aniversario. It was a fun day.
