Gary and Friends,
We have a nice picture of early local history, compliments of
Lloyd Awalt. He found this very interesting picture of the winners of
the international ‘Tug ‘o War’ at the dedication of the Peace Garden in
1932. The back of the picture lists the names of the team and states
that they won the ordeal. This type of picture is priceless to buffs of
local history and we certainly need to thank Lloyd for finding it and
getting it posted for us to enjoy. Thanks Lloyd and Gary!

Joke of the day
Posted by Dick Johnson (68): Dunseith, ND
Gary and Friends,
There is an old joke I have told for years and it still fits the
mold. A rancher from the Turtle Mountains went to the national
cattleman’s convention in Kansas City. He had never been to one so had
no idea what goes on. He registered and asked what was happening? They
told him there was social going on over in the big convention center
right then so he headed over. As he entered, he noticed groups of men
standing around and visiting and enjoying a drink so he got a beer and
walked over to one of the groups. A big Texan was telling how he could
get in his pickup and drive all day and never get off his own ranch.
The guy from the Turtle Mountains agreed and said, “I had a pickup just
like that one time.”
Dick
