Dear Family and Friends,
If there is any truth in the saying "wealth is not measured by your
monetary value, but by your family and friends," then we are certainly wealthy.
2008 has been filled with both, and we are very fortunate. Not only did we have our groups who come every year but also made the acquaintance of twins, their grandfather and two young men from Washington. Our list of great people contacts just keep growing and we enjoy it.
We did have some horrific storms during July, which left a need to redo the roof on buildings from the 75 mile an hour winds, hail and lightning. Trees were blown over and just a real mess. Had not seen a storm like that for several years.
October, what-a-month, it was the 100th birthday party in Ashland. What a group of people that came, close to 225-250 to join in the festivity. We had guests from
Alaska, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Michigan, Minnesota, Washington, Wyoming, Wisconsin, South Dakota, and of course Montana. We appreciate each and every one of you that made the journey to share the day with us and those who were not able to attend, but sent cards and gifts makes all of you have a special place in our hearts and lives, thank you.
We wish that each and everyone of you have a "Blessed Holiday Season" with all of your families. Please keep in touch, and stay safe. Keep warm and know that we are
thinking of you all, and all wish the best in 2009.
Gladys and Dick
