Busy day at Cove Fort (Mike)

What a busy day we had! The surrounding stakes held a regional youth conference at Cove Fort. They watched the movies of Joseph Smith and the fort, and took tours. They had square dance instruction and a barbeque and then held a dance. There were about three to four hundred kids along with another three to four hundred regular visitors that came for tours. At the end of the day, the actual count on visitors was 958, a new record for one day other than Cove Fort days. The missionaries were running to keep up, and right in the middle of it one of the missionaries called to me and introduced me to a lady who had Kanosh connections. I soon learned that she was a cousin that I had never met from California, Monica Cuthbert, who is an M.T. in the Student Health Center at California State University Northridge . She is the daughter of my aunt Eva. (A sister to my grandpa Cummings) She remembered camping at our hunting camp in the mountains above Cove Fort.

It was another good day at the fort.
