Elder Cole Twitchell called his family from the Salt Lake Airport before boarding a plane to fly to his mission headquarters headquar-ters in the California-San Fernando Mission. The new rule is that families are no longer permitted to see their missionaries off at the airport. An incident I heard this morning delighted me. Dorie Baugh of Tropic, after waiting with the school children and many others from Bryce Valley, the bitter cold weather to see the Olympic Torch come to Canyon, sent an e-mail to someone some-one in Salt Lake to protest. After she explained to the man that she was from Garfield County, he said, "Oh, I know about your area because I read the Garfield County News every week." Our county paper is quite renowned. That's pretty neat! Hazer Manning, son of Gil and Shantel Manning, had surgery sur-gery on Wednesday to put tubes in both ears. He is doing well.

His brother, Kenneth Clark came from Salt Lake City to take care , of him but he decided he wasn't needed and his own wife was ill, so he returned home. We sincerely hope that all of the sick people are soon well again.
