Happy Easter to you and Bernadette. Praying that this will be an especially good day health wise for both of you. It’s snowing in Rolette this morning even though we feel the promise of spring coming.
Tale care, Margaret
Margaret,
It is wonderful hearing from you. Looking forward to seeing you this summer too with our 50th class reunion too.

Joke of the day
Posted by Larry Hackman (’66): Bismarck, ND
An old geezer, who had been a retired farmer for a long time, became very bored and decided to open a medical clinic.
He put a sign up outside that said:Dr. Geezers’s clinic. “Get your treatment for $500, if not cured get back $1,000.”
Doctor “Young,” who was positive that this old geezer didn’t know beans about medicine, thought this would be a great opportunity to get $1,000.
So he went to Dr. Geezers’s clinic.
This is what transpired.
Dr. Young: — “Dr. Geezer, I have lost all taste in my mouth.” can you please help me ??
Dr. Geezer: — “Nurse, please bring medicine from box 22 and put 3 drops in Dr. Young’s mouth.”
Dr. Young: — Aaagh !! — “This is Gasoline!”
Dr. Geezer: “Congratulations! You’ve got your taste back. That will be $500.”
Dr. Young gets annoyed and goes back after a couple of days figuring to recover his money.
Dr Young: “I have lost my memory, I cannot remember anything.”
Dr. Geezer: “Nurse, please bring medicine from box 22 and put 3 drops in the patient’s mouth.”
Doctor Young: “Oh no you don’t, — that is Gasoline!”
Dr. Geezer: “Congratulations! You’ve got your memory back. That will be $500.”
Dr. Young (after having lost $1000) leaves angrily and comes back after several more days.
Dr. Young: “My eyesight has become weak — I can hardly see !!!!
Dr. Geezer: “Well, I don’t have any medicine for that so — ” Here’s your $1000 back.”
Dr. Young: “But this is only $500…”
Dr. Geezer: “Congratulations! You got your vision back! That will be $500.”
Moral of story — Just because you’re “Young” doesn’t mean that you can outsmart an old “Geezer ” !!!!

Reply from Cheryl Larson Dakin (71): Hi Gary This is in reply to Wayne Smith…… loved the 50’s/60’s production! My husband and I went to Hot August Nights in Reno again this year. You’ve never seen so many beautiful classic cars as the thousands they have parked in the Casino lots and cruising the boulevards. My husband restores 50 Plymouth’s (he’s on his 3rd so far) and we also have a beautiful black 49 Chrysler New Yorker Highlander that needs to be completed. They’re fun to drive too, like a ship on the sea. To Neola……..take care and feel better soon. Cheryl Larson Dakin ’71

From Mel Kuhn (70): Gary, The St. John boys football team put forth a valiant effort but lost yesterday to Williams County 20-12. It was their first loss of the season. By the end of the game it was getting mighty cold and somewhat breezy, 20 degrees and 10 mph winds. Later.
