This morning while driving past the former home of Red's Dinning and
Sports Bar. I noticed the large for rent signs had been removed from the
windows. My first thought was that it's possible that someone had
decided to reopen the former Reds/Shananigan's restaurant.
Later on yesterday afternoon I received the following note from Erick
clearing up any possible question as to the new occupants of that
facility. Erick wrote. >>>
Morning,
As of today, Monday October 8th, We have moved our business to 40 E
12th St (the former Red's and Shananigan's building) from our spot
at20 E 12th St (Former Barb's Property Mgmt). This will allow us
to carry a greater inventory and provide more services such as ink
cartridge refilling and certain custom products in the near future.
We are open and ready for business andwill be getting more
streamlined and adding more products daily as long as UPS and fedex
continue to show up. Thank you for all you have done and thank you
for your continued support.
Sincerely,
Erick K. Soltvedt
Combined Wireless
Alltel Authorized Agent
40 E 12th St
Grafton, ND 58237 <<< Congratulations and good luck in your new and
expanded facilities Erick. Thanks a million also for the update. If
anyone is in need of just about anything in the line of office supplies,
you might do well giving Erick a call.

Whenever I mention Chandler Field someone finds reason to share
something. Kathy would like to share her thoughts and observations. >>>
RE: Chandler Field
Speaking of Happy Chandler last week and all the times that this Grafton
community comes through reminded me the Chandler baseball field that is
starting to really take shape. If you haven't noticed-take time to slow
down when you drive by. I know that there have many people working on
this, however there is always one individual that is almost always
amidst the others or often times working on the field alone. Driving
by during many evenings and weekends Brent McMillan can be seen working
on the field, watering, shovelling, raking, building this or moving
that. From the beginning stages of the grant writing, and each step
along the way, his support and dedication to this project Brent has
logged many many volunteer hours. On behalf of the parents whose
children will play ball many years to come on these diamonds we want to
thank Brent and all of the others who are working on this field of
dreams. Kathy K. Larson<<<< Thanks a million for caring and sharing
Kathy. From every indication I see. The newly configured Chandler field
should serve us well for many years to come and will make us all proud
of the wonderful facilities. I too would like to thank all of those
involved with this most worthy project.

If you get a chance to drive by the intersection of 12th street and
McHugh Avenue (preferably at night) you will see a fantastic selection
of Ghosts, Ghouls, and Goblins. The residence, once owned by Bob Dahl,
has been adorned with a dozen or more Halloween characters complete with
sufficient lighting to enhance our evening enjoyment.
It should also be noted that several other local households are
displaying various Trick or Treat decorations geared toward the
Halloween season.

I'm sure glad I never said anything about never making a mistake
yesterday when I mention my first correspondence with the Gazette was
with my two daughters. Almost before I could say darn, bugger, heck,
shucks I received the following note from number one son. He wrote. >>>
You said it started out with your two daughters, what about your son?
I remember getting them from the start.
Jeff <<< Thanks a million Jeff. You most certainly are right. As a
matter of fact, if I remember correctly, it was you that finally
translated the proper operating instruction for this thing. Thanks again
Jeff for your patience and understanding.

Rumor has it the Red River Valley Sugar Beet crop is approximately 40
harvested. That, of course, is based on the best guess estimate of the
best guesstimaters in the business. The exact number will not be know
until the last beet is harvested. And, no one seems to want to guess
when that will be.
==============================
GOTTA - GO - WORK - ON - MY - DASH
==============================
Gosh it's great hearing from members of the Gazette family. If you
prefer I not mention your name or share your note with the rest, simply
say so and your note will be kept strictly confidential.
Please remember, if you don't tell me, I can't know. If I don't know, I
can't share with anyone.
Write if you can, call if you can't, and, tell your loved ones they are,
before it's too late.
