Dunseith Caribbean Cruise update From Gina, our travel agent.
Hello Gary,
Thank you and I see you are missing one cabin for your list: Terry & LeaRae Espe.
NCL needs me to finalize your group now, as I have been putting this off for a bit now.
(hoping and wishing to get you that 24th cabin to calculate your Group credit amount).
Your Group has confirmed mostly ocean view cabins which means NCL will base your
Group rebate amount on the base price of the ocean view cabins held for your group:
The ocean view base cruise price is $489.00 (the amount with all the taxes deducted).
Your group has earned two of these as a rebate to be applied to your final payments.
($489 plus $489 for a total rebate amount of: $978.00 which is divided by: 23 cabins).
All 23 cabins will be confirmed for a $42.53 cabin discount with their final payment.
Final payments should be called in or emailed to me prior to 5pm EST November 18th.
In addition to your group rate, I have also confirmed a one hour “group” cocktail party.
I’ll request first night of cruise and if not possible then it will be the 2ndnight of cruise.
I’ve also added a $50 onboard cabin creditand a bottle of champagne for every cabin.
For any cabins booked after today they will receive the above three group amenities.
(however their cabin would not be eligible to re-calculate the group discount amount).
Please let me know any and all questions.
Thank you and best regards,
Gina

ND Small Business People annual event
Message from Blanche Wicks Schley (’42): Grand Forks, ND
Gary, I don’t have your e-mail address. I have read the good stories about ND people. This last weekend over 200
ND small business people were here in Grand Forks for the annual event. This group are mostly people who have turned a hobby into a business — jelly makers, wine, jewelry and so many crafts. This is an annual event and the shows are held in Minot, GF, Fargo and Bismarck. There are a lot of talented people in this state who are willing to share their talent and we are the lucky ones — we get to be able to buy “home” made gifts. We are so fortunate that these people were willing to stay in the state and share their talents with the general public ( for a price ). Keep up the good work and to everyone out in computer land from ND — have a wonderful holiday!

Recorded History
Message from Gary Metcalfe (57): Forsyth, MO
Hello all, Recorded history. Gary Stokes what your blog does, in my opinion, above all is to provide an opportunity for anyone that felt left out of Prairie Past and Mountain Memories a record of familieis and events that a group of Dunseith citizens compiled.
I took advantage of written history and brought up Jack Dempsey on the internet, a boxer whom my dad thought was the greatest boxer of all time. It was great to be able to see him in action via internet. He came from a humble beginning in Colorado, a good looking man, one hand as dangerous as the other and knocked out most of his opponents in the first round. Then I looked to the old 34th infantry WWII, to find an outfit like the Texas company that had 400 front line combat days, just did not cut it with the 34th and their 600 days of front line combat days. There is a wealth of history on the internet now
Then for something to do I punched in Newman Lake, Washington. A lake near the Idaho border and Spokane. I found a website that told a lot about Mr. Newman. This was a place I spent so many happy months at the end of the war. If I was not so dog gone lazy I would contribute to their website and tell them about the Thoms who were our landlords and had a floating store on the lake. They gave me an 18″square box of candy…what a gift for a six year old boy!! The Thoms were related to Mr. Newman.
Most of the memories my dad gifted me with, hundreds of them, will be lost to history because I become frustrated when I try to write stories that are interesting.
I take my hat off to Larry Hackman and Dick Johnson and all other contributors who help this blog stay interesting. Where are you Aggie/
It is frustrating with our new computer because about the time Sue gets a paragraph typed….viola it disappears and we must start all over again! If I was running the computer I would find out from Dick Johnson what those X’s and O’s mean, and I think I would use them plenty about this stage of the message.
Thank you Gary. Gary Metcalfe
