The questionable lady in the Ackworth photo is Leola…I think?
Thank you Vickie and Debbie. I know Leola well too, but for some reason in this picture it did not look like her to me. Now that I know it is Leola I can see it is her in her smile.

Note: Our clothes were all purchased at Sister Rose’s store in Dunseith too.
I think this picture may have been taken at Grandpa Carl Petterson’s house?

Joke of the day

Older Men at Breakfast Chatting…

“Sixty is the worst age to be,” said the 60-year-old man. “You always
feel like you have to pee and most of the time you stand there and
nothing comes out.”

“Ah, that’s nothin,” said the 70-year-old. “When you’re seventy, you
don’t have a bowel movement any more. You take laxatives, eat bran,

sit on the toilet all day and nothin’ comes out!”

“Actually,” said the 80-year -old, “Eighty is the worst age of all.”

“Do you have trouble peeing, too?” asked the 60-year old.

“No, I pee every morning at 6:00. I pee like a racehorse on a flat
rock; no problem at all.”

“So, do you have a problem with your bowel movement?”

“No, I have one every morning at 6:30.”

Exasperated, the 60-year-old said, “You pee every morning at 6:00 and
crap every morning at 6:30. So what’s so bad about being 80?”

“I don’t wake up until 7:00 a.m.”
