Sherry and Ernie York are back on their Mink Creek mountainside. Glad to have them home, but I fear they will find this hot weather not much better than that of Arizona. Maybe with that perspective these hot days feel cool.
Karen and Layne Erickson were able to be with daughter Connie and Adam Westenskow when Adam was sustained to be the 2nd Counselor in the Bishopric of the 17th ward in Logan. Following that meeting the family went to Wellsville to share dinner at the home of their son Bishop Bryan and Shannon Erickson.
Lin and Sharla McKay and Kent and ReNae Egley managed to squeeze a weekend of leisure time to go to Jackson, WY, and listen to the Bar J Wranglers one more time before that group retires. A mountain ride in the wilds of nearby mountains wound up the summer break. One gets a beautiful view from those heights.
Nicholas Christensen, son of Kim and Wally Christensen, and Elizabeth Lasley were married on June 13. The wedding took place in Logan Canyon.
The family of Roxanna and Mack DeVries enjoyed some vacation time at Yellowstone National Park. Lots of things to see: geysers, buffalo, hot pots, waterfalls, great Yellowstone offerings filled their days.
Jonathan Seamons won first place in the Idaho State USA Wrestling, 170 pound, contest in Greco and Freestyle Wrestling last May. This qualified him to represent Idaho in the Nationals at Indianapolis, IN, this last month. Team Idaho did well and ranked 6th or 7th nationally. It was a duals tournament and Jonny was able to compete in several matches. He is the son of Jeff and Jennifer Seamons.
Fathers’ Day was recognized in the LDS Ward with messages and memories. Each father received a bag of treats—-popcorn of a variety of flavors. They could choose from caramel, white chocolate, muddy-buddy, some chewy, some crispy, some popcorn, some corn pops---all a yummy snack!
The children of Carl and Lenna Christensen gathered for a Family Reunion. Some of them live in Mink Creek: Eldon and Danita Wilcox, Forrest and Patti Christensen, Phillip Christensen, Brian Christensen. Others came from some distance: Brad and RaOna Stuart, Vachelle Higbee, Vance and Connie Christensen and many of the grandchildren and great grands.
Preparations for the 3rd --4th of July are well underway. Volunteers make this happen and it has been a long standing tradition in this little village. A great many improvements have taken place at the beautiful ballpark that hosts this annual event.
