General news update
From Vickie Metcalfe (’70): Bottineau, ND
Hello Gary and friends,
It is a beautiful Autumn Day here at the foot of the Turtles.
This morning, after reading the Minot Daily at the Family Bakery, I found many washers open at the local pay laundry and washed rugs
A sunny crisp day for clean rugs. And walking the dogs through the leaves and smelling the fresh air.
While the rugs were drying, I ran across Main Street to Jerry’s Grocery to visit Sharon.
Sharon says, “She’s better every day and feels great.” It is so nice to have her back in good health, behind Jerry’s counter slipping kids treats!
“Sharon B.” who womans the aisle at the grocery story, the gal every kid in the Bottneau hopes their mom goes to because she remembers their name and always has a ready smile and treat.
I also greeted Mark L. a football player, ( his dad and all of his L. Aunties and Uncles graduated from Dunseith) who although Bottineau won another Football game last night managed to keep his feet on the ground.
My “boy’s” and I then zipped out to Rolette/Bottineau County area’s “General store”; Walmart
I find enjoyable Saturday shopping at Walmart. I like visiting in the aisles with friends and acquaintances of yesteryear.
I met up with M.J. who I started teaching in Dunseith. I also visited with several Dunseith Elementary former students, classmates and bus buddies.
I was checked out by……Norm & Irene’s daughter (Marlys Hiatt) from the hills, of the Ackworth Community and Gamble Store.
Whoo.eee__ Oh yes! I finally ran into Art Hagen and Rose___ I met Rose! We visited about yesterdays blog Governors Choir photo.
After a pleasant visit, I bid them goodbye, I looked them each in the eye, and asked them pointblank, “Are you two going steady?”
The answer was affirmative.
So there’ it tis__ news of our Turtles,__where I peer out my window and see,
“The Autumn Leaves of Red and Gold________.”
Happy Fall!
Vic
Art Hagen (’73) was named an honored member of Who’s Who
Art Hagen was the owner of the Davidson Meat processing plant in Bottineau for many years. He is to be commended for his community contributions and involvement both through his business and personal. Through Art, Davidson’s Meat processing plant was a big supporter of the local 4-H clubs and many of the other local organizations with it’s contributions.
This award says it all for Art and the business side of the house of Davidson’s Meat Processing plant too.
Art has now sold Davidson’s. From the reports I’ve gotten, Davidson’s is thriving well. The good (Good Will) reputation that Art made for the business is following through to the new owners.

Uncle Carroll Carlson had this picture with no identification. Maybe someone on the blog knows who this is.
Joke of the day
Posted by Larry Hackman (66): Bismarck, ND
Three women die together in an accident and go to heaven. When they get there, St. Peter says, ‘we only have one rule here in heaven: Don’t step on the ducks! So they enter heaven, and sure enough, there are ducks all over the place. It is almost impossible not to step on a duck, and although they try their best to avoid them, The first woman
Along comes St. Peter with the ugliest man she ever saw. St. Peter chains them together and says, ‘Your punishment for stepping on a duck is to spend eternity chained to this ugly man! ‘
The next day, the second woman steps accidentally on a duck and along comes St. Peter, who doesn’t miss a thing. With him is another extremely ugly man. He chains them together with the same admonishment as for the first woman.
The third woman has observed all this and, not wanting to be chained for all eternity to an ugly man, is very careful where she steps.
She manages to go months without stepping on any ducks. One day St.Peter comes up to her with the most handsome man she has ever laid eyes on, very tall, long eyelashes, muscular. St. Peter chains them together without saying a word.
The happy woman says, ‘I wonder what I did to deserve being chained to you for all of eternity? ‘
The guy says, ‘I don’t know about you, but I stepped on a Duck.
Boracay Philippines located about 400 NW of Cebu.
Folks, Rose (Art Hagen) is putting together a group to visit Boracay in February. Those of you interested are most welcome to join. We’d love your visit to Cebu too. We do have accommodations too, for those of you wishing to come. Boracay is a beach resort island located about 400 miles NW of us with reports of having the very best beaches in the world. In addition to the 2 cent air fare, I am very confident that Rose will find great hotel accommodations too. Gary
