1987

I finished putting 211 pictures from 1987 on a 32GB Flash Drive today. Many of them are included in these 2 Collages. It was another interesting year as we balanced time between family, job, travel, social, religious and environmental activities. Julie's birthday and her recital with Mr. collier were early in January after Elaine and I had participated in Gov. Kay Orr's Inaugural Ball. I began service on the Presbytery committee on Ministry. The ice at the farm had as much interest in the winter as water in the summer. We attended a National Association of Conservation Districts meeting in Reno, NV, went on to Phoenix, AZ where we visited Verne and Carolyn Bathurst and went on the Nebraskan Irrigation tour, We had a Soil Conservation float in the Goehner parade, appreciated a Blue Bird that Verlon carved for us. We danced to Dad's Accordion music at Ted & Muffy's. Enjoyed our garden, the Garland Alumni reunion, Staff picnic at Dayle Williamson's, the Seward swimming pool and Camp Creek Thrashers. Elaine's SHS Class of 1947 had a 40 year reunion. We visited Oregon Trail Limestone ruts, the Tetons,  and Yellowstone NP , with the VW behind our motor home on the way to a Soil and Water Conservation Society Mtg  in Billings, MT. We visited Walt Bagley at Prairie Pines on a Seward Grange tour, Went to Canada with Willard & Audrey Kilzer to fish, harvested our Certified Switch Grass, had Thanksgiving at Don's in Syracuse, NE and a quiet Christmas in Seward. It was a Great Year.
