The tie Adam wore looks like cheese - he even commented that the touch was kind of "cheesy!" (Meaning the wearing of the tie, not the actual feel of it.) Adam gave a great talk. Roger Bown commented to me, "I don't think anyone's been in this ward longer than your mother and me, and I've never seen a more confident, well-prepared Clayton boy head out for the mission field."
Lots of family was there - Joan and Fred, Paul and Camille, Charlie and Jeanette, Debbie and Alyssa, Brenda and her husband, Mary, Dad, Noah and I - among others. There will be a trip to the temple on Tuesday and an open house on Wednesday, but I have a prior commitment for Wednesday, so I wanted a group shot. Even when all the Claytons aren't there, it's still a big group! You may need to click on this to enlarge it to see everyone - we recruited one of Adam's friends to be the photographer and he did an admirable job with the 3 cameras he was handed!
On the way there, we saw someone riding on an old bike - the kind with a very large front wheel and a rather small rear wheel. The guy had a suit on too - and when we passed him, it turned out it was Bishop Tovey! It's not a very good shot, but it was the best I could do, short of chasing after him and asking him to slow down and "pose!"

I remember that bike from when I was a kid. He's had it for ages. Glad to see the tradition has held.
How odd that I never noticed it! Shows how unobservant I am!
Well, I never noticed it, and I don't know who Bishop Tovar is, but he made my morning.
Tovey. Sorry.
nice bike - and glad adam's farewell went well - we're hoping to be there on wednesday.
