March 4, 2026

 

Conner Iverson, youngest child of Kurt and Margret Iverson, has received his much anticipated call to serve as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He will be serving in the Mexico, Mexico City West Mission, Spanish-speaking. Conner will enter the home mission training on June 4 and then transfer to the MTC in Mexico City later in the month.

Jesse and Annavelynn Wilcox and their son Desmond recently returned from a cruise. Based in Florida their activities took in several items connected with the Kennedy Space Center and checking out NASSA. There were lots of fun aquatic events included and lots of learning. It was not part of the plan, but they brought home a flu bug of some sort, not intended as a souvenir. All three are now recovered we happily report.

There has been music in the air when the Young Women's group invited the Young Men group to a dancing activity to learn some line dances and cultural dances. The instructors were Greenlee Christensen and an adult leader, Jillian Iverson, both of whom have experience in the field of dance. There was a good turnout and claimed to be “one of the best” combined activities in the community for quite a while. That indicates everyone had fun and learned new things. There is nothing quite like new dance steps for one's social repertoire.

The mail has brought seed catalogs and local home greenhouses are getting ready for the approaching season. Not sure what to expect—will it be spring, or has spring sprung and maybe it will be winter. After the strange winter where it should still be snowing, any local green thumb has to feel a bit in suspension. There are rumors of crocus and early tulips, daffodils already.

It is turkey time and you need to be aware during those speedy drives through Mink Creek, on your way to get to work or wherever on time.  Those critters do like to graze near the highway.
