Jared and Juli Egley and children spent
part of their Christmas break in New York City with its extra sparkle
for the holidays. They soaked up a performance of the Rockettes at
Radio City Music Hall,checked out the Empire State Building and the
Rockefeller Center and the Statue of Liberty. It was braving frigid
cold temperature with the additional humidity from the nearby ocean.
JR and Elaine Rasmussen and their
boys, William and Luke, came up from Riverdale, UT, for Christmas
doings with JR's parents, Mary Jean and Larry Rasmussen. Later Terry
Carr, daughter of the Rasmussens who now lives in Centerville, UT,
was able to spend the long weekend here and helped with putting away
of all the Christmas decorations. That is an extra holiday gift most
appreciated.
California lost one couple for the
holidays. Adam and Camene Haws and their four children spent their
days in snowy Mink Creek at the Haws home. They live in Solvang, CA.
Camene's parents, Kim and Richard Morrison of Riverdale, UT, joined
them for some family time.
The holidays attracted Lillian and
Larry Hansen and some of their family up from Utah to enjoy winter
life in Mink Creek as opposed to the fun summer month visits.
Another pair of 'in and out' Mink Creek householder was Jeff and
Julie Workman of Stansbury Park, UT.
Five young men of the community
enjoyed three days of a Winter High Adventure recently with a trip to
West Yellowstone. For some of them it was the first time they had
ridden snowmobiles. They rode through the winter creations and
recognized the source of all that beauty. They increased in
avalanche awareness, always a good thing in winter mountains. In
preparation they had to focus on the goals of the trip and what they
might learn from the experience. The three Iverson sons, Charles,
Walter and Andrew, Dallon Baird and Austin Corbett, were accompanied
by leaders Shane Corbett, Sid Whitehouse, and Bishop Kurt Iverson and
their advisers, Lin McKay and Bret Rasmussen, both with years of
snowmobiling activities under their belts.
Marie A. Keller has moved to
Pennsylvania. She has been a teacher and nurturer of our young
children and will be missed. She has also had a menagerie of pets
that are surely aware of her absence as new owners are found.
Our college age kids have scattered to
their various institutions of learning. I may miss a few, but recall
seeing River McKay, Clair and Clay Jepsen, Celina and Rico Crosland,
Ben Seamons, Brooke Corbett, and McKinley Longhurst.
