Stone Garage
Question from Marge Longie Langan Wilcox (’56):  Vancouver, WA.
 

Gary wasn’t the stone garage owned by Joe Lamoureux?
Consequently I have been away from the Dunseith area since 1963

Hi Gary,    
 
The stone garage. Ray Lake built the garage in 1939.  Him and his brother operated it till Dale Fugere bought it.   I worked for Dale for awhile when he first started.  Yes Dick, I remember the fish house.  I’m trying to think of who bought it from Dale.    I think some one else had it before Orlan bought it and made a bar.

Randy and Cheryl Kester Gaugler in China
Picture/message from Cheryl Kester Gaugler (’69):   North Brunswick, NJ

Gary,

Randy was working with the Chinese Academy of Science for two months in Harbin, so I joined him for a month.  We were fortunate getting to travel to Hong Kong, Macau, Guilin, Kunming and Xian before heading home.  Had a great time seeing the exotic sites-this one shows the karst formations Guilin is famous for with the Li River in the background.  It was a gorgeous day of sightseeing!

Really enjoy your blog and am thankful you are so dedicated.  Thank you for a little bit of home!  Cheryl

Joke of the day
Posted by Neola Kofoid Garbe:  Bottineau & Minot, ND
 
An Irishman, a Mexican and a Blonde Guy were doing construction work on scaffolding on the 20th floor of a building.They were eating lunch and the Irishman said,”Corned beef and cabbage! If I get corned beef and cabbage one more time for lunch, I’m going to jump off this building.” 

The Mexican opened his lunch box and exclaimed, “Burritos again! If I get Burritos one more time, I’m going to jump off, too.”

The blonde opened his lunch and said,” Bologna  again! If I get a bologna sandwich one more time, I’m jumping too.”

The next day, the Irishman opened his lunch box, saw corned beef and cabbage, and jumped to his death. 

The Mexican opened his lunch, saw a Burrito, and jumped, too. 

The blonde guy opened his lunch, saw the bologna and jumped to his death as well.

At the funeral, the Irishman’s wife was weeping. She said, “If I’d known how really tired he was of corned beef and cabbage, I never would have given it to him again!”

The Mexican’s wife also wept and said, “I could have given him tacos or enchiladas! I didn’t realize he hated Burritos so much.”

Everyone turned and stared at the blonde’s wife. The blonde’s wife said,

“Don’t look at me. He makes his own lunch.”
