I talked to Ora, Susan her daughter had surgery this morning.  Her appendix reptured.

12 Noon -  dinner with Michael, Autumn, and Alex in Provo

3:30 PM - tour Encircle Home near Provo City Temple.  Was originally built in 1891.  It is the same architectural style as stick's (1860s -1870s) and shingle's (1879 -1912).  The house style is similar to that of George Mariam Smith, Uncle Babe's, near Delta, AL.  Stephenie Larsen is CEO and Founder, her husband is Dr. Mitch Larsen; Jacob Dunford is COO; Stephenie and Jacob with other staff gave us a tour and introduced us to some of the children whose sexual orientation is not considered straight.  In fact there we 12 different categories for someone to choose from to identify yourself when signing in.  John Williams was a friend of Anteon, and Steve Young dominated $100 M each.  Michael and Autumn want to open an Encircle Home in San Clemente.  Stephenie has plans and funding to open a home in Boise and Twin Falls, ID.  

Debbie and I followed Michael, Autumn, and Alex to the Meringue House Secret Garden, 309 East 700 North, Provo where she will be living this school year at BYU.  Michael drove pickup truck and Alex drove SUV, both loaded and still have things of hers to bring down from the cabin.  I took some pictures.
