The 3 kids are all at Camp!

We just took the last kid - Parker to Camp today. We have three weeks alone without the 3 boys. Brenden is in his 11th year is the Asst. Waterfront Director. (He works the girls camp.) Kyle is in his 9th year and is a CIT (Counselor in Training.) And this is Parker's 5th year.

They post pictures every day - http://www.coniston.org/

Grandma's Marathon is today - Saturday, June 21, 2008

My cousin Sandy e-mailed me yesterday that Grandma's Marathon was this weekend and it brought back memories when we used to work the race. I worked for Honeywell at the time and we did the timing. Here is the url for the website: http://www.grandmasmarathon.com/

Can you find Julie Olson (I think it is her), Bernice Olson, Sandy & Chuck Hatfield and of course me.

Can you find Judy and me.

Me with Grandma!

Old Photos Friday!

I just came across this photo - and it is one of my favorite photos as it brings back lots of memories. That is Bernice probably cooking either hot dogs or burgers.

Bernice and Eldred feeding the deer. I am not sure where they were - maybe Deer Town in Park Rapids.

Barb and Kay with their Aunt Beatrice, their Uncle Eldred and their Grandma Rose Huss.
