Riding in a Model A

Brother Dick & Ella Mae MCCellan came over on Sunday and took Andrew and Quentin Durfee for a ride in their Model A. It was their 50 year wedding anniversary gift. They rode all around La Grande.

Eagle Project

Andrew had 5 Scouts show up on Saturday morning to help them do their Eagle Project. Michael Queebeman, Parker & Gentry Berry, & Dereck Huntsman, were the happy helpers. Andrew had already marked off & sprayed a white line for the pipes. Bruce used the ditch digger to dig a ditch & then the Scouts hand dug the hole for the main line. The digging took 6 hours. The ground was very hard. We went back in the evening and filled in the ditch. Howard Houck did the plumbing for us.

Eagle Project

Andrew & his dad are working on their Eagle Project. They are putting in 2 drinking fountains at LMS. One by the shed and one by the bleachers.

High Adventure

Andrew and 3 other scouts, his dad & Bro Isaacson went to the coast for thier high adventure this year. They played laser tag in Portland, went out in a boat in the bay crabbing, camped in tents, fished off the reef & played in the sand.

New Washer

We got our new washer on Friday. It is a front loader. It is supposed to cost only $8 a year, very energy efficient. We like all the push buttons.

Dan & Heidie Reception in La Grande

We had a small reception in La Grande in the pavilion. We used Verl's fountain, our trellis, Ernie's mints, Jean's cake, and Heidie's colors.

I liked the watermelon hearts, the sequin plant shoes, the cream puffs, Ernie's cream cheese mints and all the smiles.
