This is a picture of our great granddaughter, Bethany Anderson. She is the daughter of Carl and Julie Anderson. They live in Orem, Utah.

Ron and Lee Bingham with VerNon and Bernice Bingham on a cruise. We enjoyed our meals along with entertainment and shore tours. This happened from September 14 to September 24, 2005.

This a picture of our grandson, Andrew Coy, taken in Alaska. Andrew has recently been called to serve a mission in the Hungary Budapest Mission. He will enter the MTC the first part of January. We think the people of Hungary are very fortunate. Good luck Andy.

Chris and Cecilia Aaron at a dinner with missionaries from Cochabamba. They are now living in Utah.

Randle and Lucile Romney recently returned from a Mission in Mexico. They served in the temple presidency with us in Cochabamba, Bolivia, in 2000 when the temple was opened. They met us in front of K-Marts in Spanish Fork, Utah, as we traveled through on our way to visit with the Pulsiphers in Logandale, Nevada. It is great to have such wonderful friends

Each year Grandma and Grandpa Bingham manage to be in Arco, Idaho, on the day that there is free fishing for everyone. The Steensons love to go fishing at the nearby reservoir. This is the results of our efforts.

I am busy today trying to see if I can put something on my blog without help. We will be heading back to Arizona tomorrow, Wednesday, October 19, 2005. If this works, we will be able to share some pictures of family and friends as well as what activities we are involved in. This will be in addition to brief messages we send via e-mail. We hope you don't mind checking in with us from time to time.

This is a picture of the family soon after we moved to Brigham City, Utah, from Pocatello, Idaho. This would have been about 1961, taken at my mother's place in Smithfield, Utah.

This a picture of me in Homer, Alaska, during the month of July when we went fishing for halibut.

This is a picture of Grandma and Grandpa (me) Bingham in Hawaii September 2005.

Integrity

I don’t care if a man stands tall
With muscles bulging for all to see.
What I desire most of all
Is a man with integrity

A quality that is a must,
The trait he will ever defend;
A feature of unfailing trust,
Is faithfulness to the end.

He must be honest, true and chaste;
And one who is dependable.
He will never be prone to waste;
Even those things expendable.

If he knows the value of time,
He’ll always give a full measure.
Each task will be considered prime.
And menial jobs will bring pleasure.

I will seek until I can find
Someone who honors verity.
If he’s humble, sincere and kind.,
He will also have charity.
