 I e-mailed you before the 4th of July.
Finally, I am thinking, perhaps my e-mails are going into your junkÂ
mail box.
Right now it is threatening rain.
But it is all sound and show, not much moisture.
 The weatherman predicts, 100 today. UffDa Hot.
It has been so very humid.
The dogs and I have been walking before 6:00 a.m.
By 7 :00 a.m. the humidity gets too uncomfortable.
My sister, Nancy was here for a week.
Her granddaughter Ashanty,participates in the Missoula ChildrensÂ
Theatre.
We made a trip to RiverSIde Cemetery and St. Louis Cemetery on Sunday,Â
the 8th.
After paying respects to the memories of family and friends we wentÂ
to Rugby Haaland Home.
A delightful afternoon was spent with our cousins.
Paternal cousin,Eleanor Metcalfe Nerpel and maternal cousin EleanorÂ
(Schroeder) Edwards.
I will send a photo at a later date.
Eleanor Metcalfe Nerpel is the oldest Metcalfe first cousin.
 My brother Shan is the youngest Metcalfe first cousin.
They were born 40 years apart, both in August.
Later Vickie
Vickie,
Yes, your message went into my junk email box and I missed it. I get lazy and don’t always log into my hotmail account to check my junk email box. That is one of the disadvantages of using outlook express for managing my email. So sorry Vickie. Yes, please do send that photo.ÂÂFolks, It you don’t see your messages that you send me posted or if I have not replied to your message, then I have missed it. I try to make it a habit not to ignore email messages.ÂGaryÂ
Julie, I am so so sorry I didn’t see this earlier. It went into my junk email and I just now saw it. Please give us a report with how your reunion went. Thanks, Gary

I am leaving Washington State tomorrow to drive to Dunseith to see my brothers, Kick, Jay, Bill and Dan and sisters, Patsy and Myra. I will be in Dunseith about a week and then I will go to Milnor, North Dakota where my daughter, Tyera and my grandchildren, Derek and Chelsea live.
On August 1, Chelsea and I will fly out of Fargo to Washington DC. We will be there until August 8th. We are hoping the heat will subside while we are in DC. But if not, we will be spending our time visiting air conditioned museums. We will take a moon light tour of the monouments!!
I contacted Senator Hoeven’s office and set up tours of the White House and the Capitol Building. We also have tickets for the Holocoust Museum. We tried to get tickets to visit the Bureau of Engraving but all tours were full. I guess this means there will be many more people besides us that are visiting the Capitol in the sweltering heat of summer.
I think Evie’s idea of goint to Vegas is a good one!!
Phyllis McKay
ÂPhyllis,
I can tell you for a fact that Dunseith will be brightened up next week with your presents. We only wish that we could be there to see you too. As you well know, you have a special place in Bernadette’s heart too. Enjoy your vacation with all of your family and friends.ÂGaryÂPS – I just called Phyllis suggesting a little gathering with some of the folks while she is in Dunseith. She said Wednesday evening on July 25th at 6:00 PM at Dale’s works for her. I will call George in the morning to let him know so he can be geared up for a few more folks this coming Wednesday. After I talk to George, I will be posting a separate message for this event.ÂÂ
