MAUREEN'S BIRTHDAY AT THE FARM
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAUREEN!
Maureen and Lana drove to Cartwright on the weekend, where they celebrated Maureen's birthday, enjoying the new calves, among other outings, and a family gathering for dinner at the Powder Keg in Fairview on Sunday--where we caught up with them by cell phone. All the noise in the background, including Abbie's chatter, made it sound like quite a party! Maureen said they had stopped at a quilt show in Glendive en route--a first experience for her.
Tim was also at the farm, staying at Dad's, making for a good visit with him, as well as Amber, Dany, Abbie (all of them "too cute" Maureen says), Luke, and the other family. Lana made an angel food birthday cake to supplement chocolate chip cookies for the Sunday evening meal.
Mavis said that spring's work on the farm was well underway, with the barley and wheat planted and most of the beets done as well. Of course there are dozens of new calves, including some that needed to be bottle-fed by Lana and Maureen!
Julie has purchased a house in Minot!
SCOTTSDALE: VISIT FROM AN OLD FRIEND
We had a great time yesterday (Saturday) hosting lunch for a long-time friend, Jim Barron, (and his wife, Karen, whom we met for the first time) from our Washington State University Days. They were traveling through by motorhome. He and I did several projects and publications together over several years, but we had not seen him for more than 15 years. It was really fun to get reaquainted!
Cheers,
Bill and Marie
