My companion from the MTC (Paula) lives in northern Wyoming. She always invites me to come and visit her, but our schedules never work to let us get together. This summer we were determined to make it work. Between both of our schedules there was one time we could make it work. It meant one day of driving to get there, one day to visit, and one day to drive back. Kind of a crazy schedule. But I hadn't seen her in years, and I really wanted to meet her fiance, so that is just what I did!
I was stunned by the beauty of northern Wyoming. Seriously, so beautiful. I was not expecting it to be quite as picturesque as it was. Made it worth the drive!
Paula and her fiance Jerry showed me all that they could in the short time I was there. We went on a beautiful hike up Steamboat Mountain, took drives, went shopping, had a BBQ, went on walks, and had fun!
I even taught Jerry how to braid. He did pretty well. He resorted to using his teeth once, but beyond that seemed to pick up on it pretty quickly :)
I love how quickly Paula and I can pick up again after not seeing each other for years. We have only seen each other four times since returning from Brazil, but it always seems like just yesterday. It was such a fantastic trip!
PS - If you EVER have a chance to have Lemon Meringue ice cream, DO IT!
