The ice has broken up on the Park River and water is going down the
river without a problem. Water levels will have to go up several inches
before coving Ruby Nappers Lawn. That is, of course, when it was Ruby
Nappers lawn.

Joleen and Keith Bjorneby returned home Friday night. It's sure great
having Keith back for coffee in the morning. Unfortunately, somewhere
between Florida and home, he forgot how to loose at dice.
==================================
For the past several days I have been closing by suggesting that the
Gazette works better when the folks that read it, write it. Often I
receive notes from folks that are wondering, "whats going on with other
members of the Gazette family."
Often, I find myself asking, myself, the same question. Once in a while
I do hear things, -- like Dorothy having same day surgery so she can go
to Japan this fall. I haven't heard how the surgery went, nor anything
about the trip,... yet.
I suppose everyone is so dad-burn-busy (Thats a Larry Jensen
expression) they don't have time, or care to share.
Once in a while though, I do get notes like the following from Ralph.
He wrote;
Gary,
Saturday you wrote that the Gazette is best when written by those that
read it. It may be true that getting information on Trueman from his
daughter was important to all of us. However, it is often your comments
that elicit those responses. I suspect Cathy never would have written to
you if first you had not told the helicopter story. The vehicle you have
created is something special to our community. It is too bad other towns
don't have a Gary Moe. -----Thanks for the kind words Ralph. As a matter
of fact, I was hoping for another update on Trueman.

Speaking of returning home, Trueman, Rain, nice weather and Billy D.

Dear Gary,
Thanks so much for the Gazette and keeping us updated on all
the news from Grafton. We have just migrated back to Wash. from
AZ. Soon as we got back it starts raining which it hasn't all winter.
Gary when Trueman Thompson gets back to Granny's, tell him he better
practice up and get back in shape because I intend to come back in June
and shake him for breakfast and I always look forward to the win. It is
great to hear that Trueman is on the road to recovery.
I have been trying to come up with some more history on Billy Desautel
as you requested Gary, but most of the stuff I remember, is too XX
rated to report here. He was quite a kid.
Say hello to all the gang and thanks again for the Gazette.

I'm not real sure if I have the story straight, but it had something to
do with Billy, nip, and a Stark girl.
==================================
Aunt Alice sent the following note, in the form of a request.
NEW SUBSCRIPTION
HI GARY:
WOULD YOU PLEASE ADD OUR DAUGHTER JULIE TO YOUR LONG LIST OF SUBSCRIBERS
TO YOUR
DAILY GAZETTE?
I THINK THAT WILL INCLUDE ALL OF OUR FAMILY (7) THAT RECEIVE YOUR
PUBLICATION. WE SHOULD RECEIVE A CHEAPER RATE DON'T YOU THINK??? <<<
Thanks a million Alice. We would be pleased to add Julie to the Gazette
family. I checked with the subscription department and according to our
records. A cheaper rate would mean we would have to pay you. Wanna guess
what I think about that?
==================================
Welcome back to the group Jean. We're pleased you decided to renew
your subscription after your recent move. We hope your settled in and
comfortable in your new surroundings.
-----------------------
That reminds me, I have to remember to put Connie and Lewie on
vacation rate tomorrow.
==================================
GOTTA GO WORK ON MY DASH
================================== The Gazette works best when the
folks that read it, write it. Or so it seems to me.
P.S.
If someone should see a retired North Dakota farmer walking around a
swimming pool in Arizona, with a box of cookies or brownies and a sweet
little lady on his arm. Tell him "Hi" from the guys at Granny's, and me.
Or, If you happen to see a white Cadillac on the side of the road with
the hood up, that too could be Uncle Norman. Tell him "Hi" and we
understand.
Write if you can, call if you can't, and, tell your loved ones they are,
before it's too late.
