Twlonie and Kim Bullock are serving as missionaries with special needs students at Green Canyon High School. The Bullocks began this service last March and have continued into the current school year.
Jacobi Johnson and Ryann Greaves were married at the beautiful Day Mountain Ranch Resort and Event Center in Cub River Canyon on September 10th. Jacobi is the grandson of Phee and Robert Crosland of Mink Creek and grew up here as a son. Ryann is the daughter of Shawn and Kari Greaves of Preston. The Crosland clan were in attendance, so pleased for Jacobi.
Roxy and Mack De Vries have added a baby boy to their family. He was born Sept 20th, a little ahead of schedule, weighed 8 lb, 10 oz, and was 21 inches in height. Roxy and Mack had chosen the name Carter Slade for this young man.
We have had some cougar sightings, the big cats are out and about and it pays to be aware, particularly for pets and livestock. These mountain lions don’t seem to be deterred by the traffic on our main drag, Highway 36. After all, we are living in their territory along with the deer, elk, skunks, raccoons, eagles, etc. Speaking of deer, the critters are attacking garden sites, even consuming grapes, tomatoes, squash, nothing seems to deter their appetite, or a desire to sample each plant, then moving on to the next one.
With Fall coming on our ‘in an out’ human population dwindles somewhat. Jim and Debbie Harrison are still making frequent trips home to Mink Creek. David and Melanie Law of Kaysville, UT, are getting more comfortable in their spot on the slopes above the Mink Creek itself.
The sons of Robert and Phee Crosland who came home for Jacobi’s wedding, enjoyed some extra days together hiking these hills of their youth. Now that they are spread across the nation they treasure time spent together when it comes available, it is hard to schedule vacation days to match in the world of adulthood.
