FAULK COUNTY RECORD Wednesday, July 16, 2014 – Volume 132, Number 28 Faulk County Record on-line - www.faulkcountyrecord.com e-mail [email protected] 75¢ Includes Tax We believe in possible! After technical difficulties, the new digital projector sends out a picture like no other David Huss is carrying on the family tradition of the Lyric movie theater into the 21st century. Let’s face it, in the age of the Multiplex, it’s hard to keep an independent theater running. Seems like the industry is doing everything in its power to kick out the little guy. Somebody, a few years back, thought it would be a good idea to make film a thing of the past. After several false starts, it’s become more or less a reality now. And like any farmer with a new tractor featuring a GPS guidance system, there is a learning curve and a few technology gremlins to be worked out. “Oh the picture and sound were just phenomenal,” said Huss about the new system on Monday. “That is until it stopped working on Sunday night’s showing. Something wrong with the video board, there are tech guys coming in tomorrow (Tuesday, July 15) to get it working again. I’m planning to do a Thursday evening show and a Saturday matinee at 3 p.m. for How to Train your Dragon 2, and we’ll do Transformers Age of Extinction on Friday, Saturday and Sunday at normal evening show times at 8 p.m.” Aside from looking very chic in high definition, and taking up every single inch of the Lyric’s beautiful antique silver screen, (truly a case of modern high tech meeting classical elegance) the new digital projector does have several positives. “I take a flash drive and a set of keys, and plug them in to authorize the server,” said Huss. “Then we program the movie. On Saturday it was really handy because I told the machine I wanted to start the movie at 8 p.m. and it just went ahead and did it. I didn’t have to rush upstairs after taking tickets to get the projector going . . . it just started up all by itself.” Also it has features for me to play blue-ray discs, so if a church or a non-profit wanted to use the theater for an instructional movie they could do it. If the Historical Society made a video about the Pickler mansion or a non-profit group made a DVD or a YouTube video promoting the town of Faulkton or had a listing of coming events, or somebody wanted to do a video for local advertising, we could show those in a half hour preshow before the movie starts. It’s a technology that has a lot of interesting potential, so I’m curious to see where we can go with it.” “Also, lugging this little hard drive upstairs is a lot easier than hauling sixty pound metal canisters worth of film.” But new technology has foibles too. Huss said that aside from the board issue that will be worked on, he has found the machinery produces a lot of heat, maybe even more heat than burning the old phosphorous sticks of yesteryear. Right now he’s got electric fans running but he’s seriously contemplating getting airflow put in. “Right now the final cost of the upgrade is sitting at around $45 thousand,” Huss said. “That’s not counting the replacement of the air conditioning and heating system that we’ll be looking at soon to, because the AC and heating unit that has worked for the theater for the last 64 years has finally given out. That will be about $15 thousand to replace it with something that can cool the projection room and provide heat in the wintertime. A lot of folks have asked me about being open in the winter, and although it hasn’t been feasible in the past, I would like to try it.” Another caveat with the digital films is the up spike in fees. “The films usually took about 35 percent of my gate cost, but now with digital the percentage has gone up to 40 or even 50 percent,” Huss said. “It’s just one more thing that makes it more difficult to stay open.” But there are no plans to close the theater. Huss said that though he’s sometimes played movies to only an audience of two in the past, he does know that he’s got a lot of local support. “This last year we raised about $22 thousand with the gun raffle we hosted. If we can do as well, or better with this year’s gun raffle then we’ll be in pretty good shape at paying off the upgrade cost.” Huss said the best place to do Lyric’s digital upgrade (Continued on Page 2) SOUTH DAKOTA –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Inside this issue: School board................2 Town ‘n Country ...........3 Crop report promising ..4 Here is Father John Helmueller riding in the Wild West Days Parade on July 4th. Father John took on the parishes formerly assigned to Father JoJi as of the beginning of the month. Priest believes faith and service to his fellow man is his joyous duty and humble privilege Father John Helmueller took over as the local priest for the parishes of Faulkton, Orient, Polo, and Seneca at the beginning of July. Father Helmueller was born in 1962 and is originally from Maplewood, Minn., just north of St. Paul. He’s studied theology and philosophy, and had worked and studied in Spain, Italy and Rome, and was ordained as a priest in 2001. “For me, it’s been living a dream,” he said. “My faith has always been important to me. When I was growing up, I would sometimes see things like a traffic accident. Maybe someone was hurt, or even killed. I wanted to be able to do something to help.

We control what you see and hear. Weak humans bow down before your new robot masters. Technology can sure make you feel that way, can’t it. For the Lyric Theater’s Dave Huss, manager of his family’s business it’s a big upgrade that’s come with it’s growing pains. Still a programable movie projector that turns itself on when it’s time for the movie to start is nifty. 4-H Fashions................6 Obituaries.....................8 Sports...........................9 There are 16 rummage sale locations, so it will be a full morning for bargain hunters.

In the case of the car accident, the giving of last rights, that’s something a priest, does. Baptisms, funerals, marriages . . . these are all important events, both full of joy and sadness in people’s lives, and I get to be a part of that. It’s a humbling and joyous privilege to serve God in that way. In short, I wanted to be a priest because then I would have the opportunity to bring people closer to our Christ. ” “I was teaching a Spanish class, and at the end of the lesson I asked my students if there were any questions, and one boy in the back raised his hand and asked, ‘What is the meaning of life?’ Now he may have asked it in fun, but honestly I am somebody who can give an answer to that question, according to our faith. Our Catechism answers those questions. Who made you? Why did he make you? What’s the meaning of life? The Catechism says that God made you so that you could know him, love him and serve him. So what is the meaning of life? It’s to go out and find meaning. It’s a participation in the light that God shines into the world. The book of John gives the most succinct definition. God is Love. God’s love is a pure, godly love and we become a reflection of that when we share that love with each other.” Father John’s last parish was based in Flandreau. He once served Miller, Wessington and Polo parishes, so Father John said that he’s already very familiar with the Polo parishioners and that it’s nice to be back. Father John was a good friend of Father Todd Reitmeyer who served our local parishes before he died in a jet ski accident back in 2006. In his spare time, Father John loves to get outside into God’s great creation to fish and hunt, especially with a bow. Board preps for the coming year, sets yearly assignments The Faulkton Area Schools met in regular session on Monday night. The regular meeting was early, at 5 p.m. with a budgetary meeting at 7 p.m. The board approved the agenda and then made nominations for board chair and vice chair. Heather Bode was nominated and voted unanimously to retain her seat as board chair and Grady Heitmann was reelected vice-chair. The board voted to approve minutes, financial reports, and payment of current bills. They then renewed the current Associated School Board health insurance policy and declared the following as legal representatives of the board: • Faulk County Record as legal newspaper. • Supt. Joel Price and Business Official Lisa Raethz as purchasing agents. • Dacotah Bank as legal depository. • Business Official to properly invest surplus funds. • Business Official as Administrator of Federal Programs. • Business Official as Supervisor and Treasurer of the Food Service Program. • Chain of Command as Superintendent, Business Official and Secondary Principal in case of emergencies. • Superintendent as Asbestos Coordinator. • Set the second Monday of each month as the as the official meeting date of the Faulkton Area Schools 24-4 Board of Education. • Compensate board members at a rate of $65.00 per month and $65.00 per negotiations meetings. The board then voted to join the S.D. United Schools Association for the year, (formerly the Association of School Boards). Dr. Price did a final review of the new policies to go into place for the 2014-15 school year as discussed in two previous board FAULK COUNTY RECORD (USPS 188-240) Faulkton SD 57438 Published weekly by Jim Moritz, 121 8th Ave. So., Faulkton, S.D. 57438 Ph. 605-598-6525 – Fax 598-4355 E-mail: [email protected] Periodical postage paid at Faulkton, SD 57438.

Dr. Price also mentioned to the board that board member educational webinars were available for interested board members as an educational resource from the school board association. Next the board reviewed the revisions to the Garry Cunningham Sports Complex agreement with the City of Faulkton. After reviewing, board member Todd Brand was concerned that there were a few key items missing from the agreement, such as a total spending cap. Brand said that it had been discussed by both parties, but that nothing in the agreement as written had addressed it. The board all seemed to support the idea of sharing the cost of watering the complex, but agreed with Brand that the ceiling for such a cost was undefined. They tabled discussion on adopting the revised agreement until the next meeting so they could confer with city officials before their next regular meeting, to finalize details before final approval. Next the board discussed the busing issue that had also been talked about in previous meetings. K&D Busing currently handles the schools bus services. The school still owns the bus garage and uses some of it for vehicle and other storage, and though there was talk at previous meeting of selling the building the board decided that wasn’t feasible at present. K&D wants to increase rates, and has said that the cost of heating the building is very high in the wintertime. Their requested increase is to also help cover the cost of heating. Finance officer Raethz said that if the school paid for the heating costs, purchasing the propane as part of the schools bids for propane it would reduce costs, and K&D would give them a mileage discount as compensation. Dr. Price said that they would also want to look into installing a programmable thermostat, so that the building would save fuel and money when not occupied, but not so cold that the plumbing of the building would freeze. Board member Brand had many questions regarding using teachers and administrative staff as substitute drivers for the busses and whether or not the school was getting the service that they were paying for. Dr. Price said that realistically the board had little choice than to go with K&D busing, as no other potential services were available. He did however agree that these questions should be asked, and suggested that the Transportation Committee meet personally with K&D before the next regular meeting, so that whatever negotiated conclusion could be reached, it would happen well before the beginning of the start of term. The board agreed and the two members of the Transportation Committee, Kelly Aesoph and Grady Heitmann would meet with K&D. Next Raethz listed the current salaries (see listing of salaries on page 6 included in the official minutes). The board voted to hire Todd Brand as head girls basketball coach for the year (Brand abstaining from a vote regarding himself). The board then voted to hire Theresa Edgar as the competition cheer coach for 2014-15. Lastly before adjournment chairwoman Bode asked the board at large if committee assignments would be staying the same. Even though this was not on the agenda, she thought it worth bringing up. Everyone agreed that board members would stay on the same committees for this coming year. The board then adjourned and recessed until 7 p.m. to have the preliminary budget hearing. Only Bode, Brand, and Gary Bowar remained for the budget meeting, giving the board the three members for quorum. Raethz took the board through the preliminary budget for the 2014-15 year. Raethz explained that the $20,000 set aside funds for technology was included in the capital outlay budget as per board request from the June meeting. She also noted budget line items such as money set aside for a possible election and wanted to know if the board wanted priority to be given to the Google chrome books that would be issued to the board. Dr. Price said that the idea is that someday soon, they’ll be able to do everything paperless, using Google drive, so that the board members would not come to the meeting with stacks of paper, but rather a digital devise that would make all the school related paper work be able to reach a board member wherever he or she went, providing internet access. After only 15 minutes of budgetary review, the budget discussion was tabled for later, and the board adjourned for the night at 7:15 p.m. –––––––––––– Senior Nutrition Program Menu Faulkton-Seneca Wed., July 16 thru Wed., July 23 Wednesday, July 16 Hot roast beef combination, carrots, mandarin oranges, peanut butter cookies.

Wieseler receives training in college missionary work by JoAnn Schaefers Orient/Polo correspondent Desirae Wieseler, 22, of rural Orient is excited about her recent missionary training and the chance to work on a college campus. “What a summer I have just experienced!” was Desirae’s enthusiastic comment. “I just finished my first summer training with FOCUS (Fellowship of Catholic University Students), after receiving my bachelors degree in math education from U.S.D.” Over the course of my freshman year of college, I got involved with FOCUS on my campus. It was through the witness of a missionary that I saw a living example of the faith and desired that for myself. I attended a FOCUS Conference in St. Paul, Minn. in January and that was when I truly encoun- tered the person of Jesus Christ. From coming to know Him personally, I then desired to share that love and joy I had experienced with other people,” Wieseler said. In June, she joined 212 first year missionaries in Ave Maria, Fla. (near Naples), this past summer for five weeks of formation and training to be sent onto campus as a missionary. She learned from and heard several speakers who came in to teach about scripture, apologetics, prayer and evangelization. “The tools we learned prepared us for our mission on the college campus,” Desi explained. “We practiced how to build successful Bible studies, how to share the gospel and mentor students in the faith while teaching them how to teach others. I desire to invite students to a renewed encounter with Jesus Christ and an openness for them to encounter Him because no one is excluded from the joy brought by the Lord.” Wieseler will be serving at the University of Wisconsin, La Crosse with a team of four FOCUS missionaries. “We will be meeting students on campus and investing in relationships with them, by inviting them to small group events and Bible studies. Our goal will be helping them to grow in their walk with Jesus.” “College students are pulled and torn in so many directions and they are at such a pivotal point in their lives,” she explained. “They are making life decisions revolving around the careers they will be choosing and so much more. Because of this, our ministry exists to transform today’s culture with the most impact for our generation.” Desirae’s closing comment was, “accepting the call to be a missionary, without fear of what God is asking me to do and how he is asking me to follow him, is to share with others the gift of faith I have received.” Since 1998, FOCUS has grown from just two missionaries serving on a single college campus to hundreds of missionaries serving on campuses across the country. From private colleges to big state schools, secular campuses to Catholic, FOCUS missionaries are reaching and influencing our nation’s next generation of leaders.

In Faulkton, David Bartholomew reported temperatures in the high forties overnight with just a shot of rain, .20 inches over the weekend. In Orient, Rex Young reports like wise cooler weather, though they got a bit more rain than Faulkton did. “I’ll sure take these cooler days,” he said. “It’s all right for the corn and the beans if they slow up a little in the cooler weather. At least they aren’t being baked dry. We had about .53 inches from 8 p.m. Saturday evening to 8 a.m. Sunday morning, so it was just about perfect. Everything looks nice and green. Very lush, with lots of good feed for the cattle.” In Chelsea, Dennis Carda reported much the same but with less rain. “Things have been good all around,” he said. “The cooler temperatures have been good for everybody, even the crops. We had just a sprinkle of rain, I’d say no more that .05. The crops are progressing nicely, maybe through the first half of growth. Maybe in the next ten days the corn will be tasseling out. The beans are drying up, and becom- ing that nice green color that everybody likes. We aren’t hurting for rain right now, but this is South Dakota, so an inch or two out of the sky would be greatly appreciated by everybody.” Carda said that he took a recent trip to Chicago, and having a look at the crops in Minnesota and Nebraska on his way there and back, he felt that our local crops were looking a whole lot better. In Onaka, Shannon Waldman at CW Repair said that there wasn’t much shaking out in the fields that day. “We had about .60 of rain here in Onaka, and it dipped down to about 50 degrees last night,” he said. “It’s been nice and cool. Some guys are out doing a second cutting of alfalfa, and some are doing some haying. The wheat and the corn are looking pretty good. Jeff Greiner in Seneca reported even more rainfall. “We’ve had about an inch and a half since last we talked,” he said. “It’s cooled down nice the last couple of days. All the crops I’ve seen look pretty good. We ought to have a nice week of growing with that good shot of rain we had. The rain has been pretty regular the last three or four weeks. Certainly better than last year.” With a whopping 19.65 inches in the month of June, Canton established a new state record for the wettest month at any location in South Dakota. Canton has been an official National Weather Service Cooperative Observer location since 1896. The previous wettest month on record in the state was May 1946 at Deadwood, with a total of 18.61 inches. Canton received 13.16 of the month's total rainfall in three days; with a single day total of 8.43 inches on June 17, 2014. "This would likely be the most over a three-day period in South Dakota, though not an officially kept record," said Dennis Todey, SDSU State Climatologist. He added that the monthly total is considered preliminary while being reviewed for final quality checks and final verification. Several other stations set records for their individual location including: Sioux Falls with 13.70 inches; Centerville with 13.50 inches and Vermillion with 11.46 inches. "Nearly all stations reporting from Minnehaha, Lincoln, Union and Clay Counties had more than 11 inches. Many locations between Sioux Falls and Canton ranged from 13 to 16 inches for the month," Todey said. Heavy rain throughout southeastern South Dakota during the month of June led to documented flood damage which impacted urban and agricultural areas. "Extensive damage is due to both excessive rainfall and severe weather. Many roads, highways and bridges have been washed out," said Laura Edwards, SDSU Extension Climate Field Specialist. "Flooding has brought debris into cropland and washed crops into ditches. Rain, hail, wind and tornadoes have affected farmland, buildings and vehicles. This combination has resulted in some management challenges for farmers who have had multiple hazards affect their farms." The northwest part of the state had a very heavy precipitation month as well. Two stations in that region set new monthly records: Bison, with 8.07 inches, and Timber Lake with 9.89 inches. Some roads were also washed out in the northwest. Edwards said that standing water in some row crop areas of the region has made it challenging for farmers to plant sunflowers and other oilseed crops. "For existing crops, some fields have lodged wheat, barley or oats, and diseases like wheat scab may become an issue," Edwards said. In western South Dakota the rainfall in June created exceptional grazing and haying conditions for many western South Dakota producers, and stock ponds are full to overflowing. Moving into the weekend of July 5 and 6, Edwards said the forecast shows a brief warm-up before temperatures average out. "The active weather pat- Canton takes state record for most monthly moisture tern over the last few weeks will settle down this week, although localized storms are common this time of year," she said. July is typically one of the wettest months of the year for most of the eastern counties, with 2 to 4 inches on average. For more information, visit igrow.org.

Thank you . . . “Your Mother is always with you. She’s the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street. She’s the smell of certain foods you remember, flowers you pick, the fragrances of life itself. She’s the cool hand on your brow when you’re not feeling well. She’s your breath in the air on a cold winter’s day. She is the sound of the rain that lulls you to sleep, the colors of the rainbow; she is Christmas morning. Your Mother lives inside your laughter. She’s the place you came from, your first home, and she’s the map you follow with every step you take. She’s your first love, your first friend, even your first enemy, but nothing on earth can separate you, not time, not space ... not even death.” To the family and many friends of Gladine Bowar we wish to extend our sincere thanks for your many kindnesses, and for the condolences and support that we have received.

Younger people concentrated in six South Dakota counties According to a recently released U.S. Census Bureau report South Dakota was among seven states in the U.S. that showed a decline in median age. "A number of those states are located in the Great Plains. This is an interesting change in an era when the number of people over the age of 65 is projected to increase," said Leacey Brown, SDSU Extension Gerontology Field Specialist. The median age in South Dakota is 36.8. This age, Brown said, is a slight decline from the previous estimate. "It is important to note median is not average. For example, if you have five people ages 3, 9, 12, 24, and 57, the median age would be 12," she said. "This tells us very little about the people of South Dakota or where they reside." Where the young live While South Dakota may be attracting younger people, Brown said those moving to the state are moving to very specific areas of the state. "Of the 67 counties in South Dakota, 39 have a median age above 40," she said. In South Dakota, 389,170 people are under the age of 35. More than half of those or 199,126, are concentrated in six counties in South Dakota. Four of those counties are located in more urban areas of the state, including Lincoln, Minnehaha, Pennington and Meade. The remaining two host the largest universities in the state Brookings and Clay Counties. "Younger people are concentrated in very limited geographic areas of the state," Brown said. What is attracting young peo- ple to flock to the Great Plains? The U.S. Census Bureau suggested younger men are coming to the Great Plains due to the Bakken oil boom, explained Peggy Schlechter, SDSU Extension Community Development Field Specialist. "While that may the case for North Dakota, only two of the counties discussed by my colleague are near the Bakkaen Pennington and Meade," Schlechter said. "South Dakota seems to be making some gains in drawing a younger population." How can our rural communities benefit from this migration pattern? Schlechter said the answer to this question can be found by looking at some of the things people consider when planning a move to a new community. "People often look for a safe community with close prox- imity to relatives. They also seek communities that offer quality education and health care. Some reasons people may choose to move to a rural community include open spaces, a slower pace of life, and recreation." If small communities can offer opportunities to make a living and provide a lower cost of living, Schlechter said younger people might migrate. To assist communities looking to market themselves, SDSU Extension has developed Marketing Hometown America program.

ASylvia Anderson, MD –––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Choose Wisely Campaign Part 2: The American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP), in conjunction with most other primary care and specialty physicians groups in the United States, has developed a list of recommendations for Physicians to follow in practice with their patients. This “Choose Wisely Campaign” has grown substantially over the last year and includes hundreds of medical tests, procedures, and medicines that may be over-used. These Physician Groups believe that eliminating most use of these things may help to improve quality of medicine, reduce potential harms of these items, and reduce cost. The top 6-10 items to avoid in this Choose Wisely Campaign are as follows: 6) No elective (non-medically indicated) inductions of labor or C-Sections before 39 weeks gestational age. 7) No elective (non-medically indicated) inductions of labor between 39 and 41 weeks gestational age unless cervix is deemed favorable. 8) No screening for Carotid Artery Disease in asymptomatic adult patients. 9) No Pap Smears on women over 65 who have had prior screening and are not at high risk for cervical cancer. 10) No HPV screening in women younger than 30. Many other recommendations and patient friendly information can be found at www.choosingwisely.org. Your medical provider may or may not agree with these items. Some procedures are not Screening, they are Diagnostic, and other factors may be taken into consideration in the decision making process. You should work with your physician in order to make the most appropriate choices for your health. 8 Faulk County Record Obituaries Barry Jungwirth Wednesday, Ju;y 16, 2014 ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Barry Francis Jungwirth, 64, died peacefully at his home, Wednesday, July 9, 2014.

The program will be held on Thursday, July 17, at McCrory Gardens, starting at 6:30 p.m. This event is part of McCrory Gardens Third Thursday series. It is free and open to the public. "Kim loves working with flowers and getting her students excited about floriculture," said David Graper, SDSU Extension Horticulture Specialist and Director of McCrory Gardens. James teaches several Horticulture courses at South Dakota State University and is the Advisor of the Horticulture Club. She has taught workshops on doing floral design and floral judging. During the Third Thursday workshop, James will take the group out to the gardens to collect some materials to create a demonstration arrangement. If there is enough interest, there may do a make-and-take workshop in the future. "We certainly have a lot more flowers to work with here at McCrory Gardens than the typical home garden, especially if you just focus on the ones that have the beautiful blooms, but there are likely a plethora of overlooked plants that can be used to make arrangements," said James. During the course she will also discuss basic design components and methods for keeping arrangements looking good longer. To attend, meet at the Education and Visitor Center at Mc- Crory Gardens, 631 22nd Ave. in Brookings, at 6:30 p.m. on July 17.

Cresbard Area News by the Cresbard Hotel Coffee Crew Last week Ron and Fran Raethz from Arizona treated his aunts Shirley Holt and Marge Bisbee to lunch at the Hotel. Joining them were Dave and Judy Ortmeier of Chelsea. The group enjoyed the afternoon visiting in Shirley's home. Kathy Gerdes of Aberdeen and Ellen Petersen joined Wendy Guindon of Pierre and Karen Lester of Fargo, ND in Brookings on Saturday for the annual "Arts Festival" with arts, crafts, food booths and entertainment. Although the day started with rain, the sun came out making for a fun day. There was another work weekend for John and Colleen Klein of Aberdeen. The yard at Marge Bisbee's looks nice and neat as a result of their work. Their reward was a roast beef dinner and visiting. Onaka News by Ramona Goetz – phone 447-5880 Well, I decided it's high time I put some news in the paper. I arrived in Nebraska five minutes after baseball sized hail had hit Mike's place. I spent the day cleaning glass out of our bedroom while Mike was helping his son board up all the windows in his house and ours! Then Mike replanted the corn, rained five inches and flooded the creek by our place which flooded the corn! Can't get in the fields to do hay as it's too wetl I love to mow the yard and do it anyway then Mike Cresbard Coming Events Published as a Public Service by Dacotah Bank – Cresbard has to clean all the caked on grass out from under the mower! Needless to say it's been quite a wild time here in Nebraska but I love it here. My dogs are still adjusting to being in a fenced in area, they get to run around the farm in the morning before we let the ducks out for the day. I have a great job and only have to drive 14 miles to work. While I've been in Nebraska Kara, Matt, Jessica and Brian came to visit Barb and Bob at their new home in Ipswich. While I was busy moving to Nebraska they were busy moving into their new home. I'm still not moved in yet! My brother Mike was a color guard at Trail Days in Ipswich and also drove his Corvette in the parade, if I'm not mistaken I think he drove it in Faulkton's parade at Wild West days too. Al came to visit Jim and they worked at hauling iron. Heard my sister Marie and her husband Bill went to Ireland. We spent a quiet day at the farm in Nebraska for the 4th. I had enjoyed a fireworks display they held in Dodge where I work on the 2nd. Will try and get the news in at least every couple weeks from now on. Hope you are all well in SD. (This week’s news) Monday Suzi spends the day mowing. Stella, Shelbie, Katie and Paisley went shopping in Omaha yesterday and bring Suzi a new birdhouse. Tuesday tragedy hits here, someone drove over Paris, our pretty, feisty little white dog. Katie and Stella dug a grave for her while Mike made her a coffin. Suzi returns from work to hear the news. Wednesday Suzi goes to work in Dodge while Mike is busy spraying the corn. Thursday Mike finishes spraying and Suzi heads to work. It's pretty quiet in the house without Paris around anymore. Friday Suzi loads up her dogs and heads for South Dakota. After a long trip she decides to soak in a hot tub and discovers there's no water in the house! Chris comes to her rescue and fixes the problem. Guess the man who took out the water filter system shut off the water July 30-Sept. 24: Cresbard/DeVoe Museum will open its doors to the public on Wednesday afternoons from 1-3 p.m. beginning Wednesday, July 30 through Wed., Sept. 24.
