The Bonelli House tour is great. It tells briefly the story of the Bonelli family, but more importantly has some great items from the past, 1915 to about 1970.

**The Woodchucks
I saw several yellow-bellied marmots (woodchucks) at the Bannock County museum running around the outside exhibits. I caught a couple pictures as they ran around.
Reminds me of a childhood rhyme.
If a woodchuck could chuck wood; how much wood would a woodchuck chuck?

**Sheri Has Been Visiting with Grand Babies in California
With Charity's baby coming early, Miranda and Sheri left last Saturday for California. I finally coaxed Sheri into sending me some pictures. She even got to go with Camberly to a baseball game. Camberly is getting so big. The only thing she didn't get to do was hold Porter, the new baby as he has been in the hospital and not able to see him with Covid precautions.

Welcome to Kingman: Dig It Neighborhood Garden
Next to Cecil Davis Park is the Dig It Neighborhood Garden. Many people are there working hard as it is spring. The garden has many nice decorations. The garden is kept secure with a lock. There is also a neighborhood library, leave a book, take a book.

Welcome to Kingman: Radar Hill
Radar Hill can be seen from all sides of Kingman. I fully thing that from over 90 percent of Kingman you can catch a glimpse of Radar Hill. Today the hill has a couple buildings and cell phone towers. During the cold war it housed a An Air Force radar station of part of a defensive program. The hill is positioned such that cell tower signal is provided to all sides of Kingman. Today the hill can be seen but it is no accessible to the public. I understand there is a Christmas tree on the hill during the holidays.

Outside it has picnic area ad lighted softball diamond. This is the stake center meaning when several congregations meet together this is where they meet.
