Spencer Wilde, son of Judy and David
Wilde, reported on his mission in the LDS Ward. Spencer was assigned
to serve in the South Dakota, Rapid City Mission when he began his
two years of service. While there some new missions boundaries were
formed and his area was included in the North Dakota, Bismarck
Mission. A large group of family and friends were here to welcome
him home. It has been four and a half years since the five members of
the David Wilde family have been together. The three brothers,
Aaron, Christopher and Spencer, have all served missions during that
time, overlapping the time of entry and release.
Leon and Katherine Noorda are
finishing time in the Provo MTC , preparing to serve another
humanitarian mission in Asian countries. This time they are going to
Hanoi, Vietnam. Past mission experiences were in Indonesia and
Thailand. They will be doing a Welfare Mission.
Siblings and their families of Colleen
Wilde gathered from near and far at the home of Warren and Colleen on
Capitol Hill Rd. for a Lewis Family Reunion. Ann was unable to come
but her sons represented her side. Bob and Renae Lewis came from
Denver, CO. Benson and Julie Lewis live in Sandy, UT, Beth and
Buddy Alford in Idaho Falls, Lynn and Steve Cherrington in
Santaquin, UT. Lots of cousins attended, the group totaled
fifty-five. One night the siblings met at the Bluebird Restaurant in
Logan for dinner while the cousins chose Angie's Restaurant for their
meal. Everyone enjoyed a hayride and lots of visiting, catching up
on each other's lives.
The County Fair has folded up.
Participants have put away their ribbons and other rewards and can
now start planning for what interests they might display next year.
Even the livestock get a break, not more scrubbing baths, no more
spiffing up to look perfect for the judges.
The bicycling population is practicing
on our Highway 36, getting ready for that Lotoja Race that takes
place every fall, Logan to Jackson. This year it has been taken one
step further with a highway sign down in Riverdale, lights flashing
around the request. “Share the road with bicycles.”
I thought we already were.
An extra blip on the above news about
the Noordas heading to Vietnam. They started out fine and then ended
up with a delay regarding their visas. They were marooned in
California for a few days while things got straightened out. True
to form, they found fun ways to fill the time, one was a Disneyland
outing. The last message received was that they had arrived in Hanoi.
