April 16, 2024

 

Eldon and Danita Wilcox enjoyed a reunion with a former exchange student who lived in the Wilcox home while attending Preston High. It has been 22 years since Omar Lopez lived in Mink Creek. Omar brought his wife and two children to share past memories of his life in Idaho. Living in Tijuana, Mexico, the kids were particularly interested in seeing snow. The group went up into our canyons in order to find enough to get in some sledding activity. MaKenzie Gunter and Brigham Wilcox were part of the Wilcox household when Omar was a teen and they came home to reconnect with Omar and meet his family.

Jay and Kristin Collins spent Easter weekend with their daughter Claire Collins in the Boise area. One of the objectives of their visit was helping Claire move to a new apartment, always a daunting task and extra hands help to lighten the load.

Doug and Kathy Wilcox have been building a lovely home on a spot of land they have owned for a number of years. They were up from Utah recently and brought some family as well, Steve and Brooke Wilcox and Darin and Maddie Wilcox. Mink Creek is a great place for a second home, especially during the warm, green months of the year.

Robert and Phee Crosland have recently returned from a long anticipated trip to New Zealand, in the company of two of their sons, Rico and Armando Crosland. Rico Crosland served as the organizer, planner and tour guide for this venture, having served in New Zealand for two years as a missionary. They loved the beautiful scenery, enjoyed a visit to the Hamilton, New Zealand, Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and survived a flat tire with no spare.

We have had a respiratory bug making the rounds with the coming of spring. Several of our citizens have reported three weeks of dealing with a congestion, head aches, etc. that simply will not leave. It is more than the annual “Spring cold” with the sniffles.
