Roaring Youth Jam
I want to thank the Idaho Falls Arts Council for letting me have a booth at the Roaring Youth Jam. Their policy is that any Non-Profit organization can have a booth there for free. The only requirement is that you have something free for the kids to do. So, here is the test. Can […]
Tri-Cities Triathlon
I would like to start by wishing my Angel Shannon a very Happy Birthday today! This week’s story is about my trip last weekend to watch Ryan’s race. I left on Thursday so I could do more research for my training program. I stopped at several Agriculture dealerships to do some secret shopping, and […]
Foundation Night at the Chukars
I really enjoy the nights I can have a booth at the Chukars games. I would like to thank Kevin Greene, and everyone on the Chukars staff for their hospitality and support. I would also like to thank the businesses that have donated door prizes. Last year I started doing a free drawing […]
Another Opportunity
This week’s story is about a Chukars game I attended a couple of weeks ago. I had gone there to give my adopted granddaughter Savannah a ride home after the game. She is such a good kid, and it makes me feel great when she calls me G-Pa. As I was finding my way […]
Six Years
On Thursday, at 5:34 AM, it was exactly six years since my Angel Shannon left for her next chapter. There are days that it seems so much longer than that, and days that it seems like it was yesterday. For this week’s story, I want to let you know what I have learned […]
Lava Hot Springs
It was Tuesday morning when I received a text from my sister Patty. She said my nephew Quinn and his family were up from Arizona. They are all going to Lava and asked me if I wanted to come over. It sounded like fun, but my first thought was I would be interfering with […]
Fourth of July
I hope everyone had a Happy and safe Fourth of July. It has always been one of my favorite holidays. I remember Shannon and I taking the boys to the Fourth of July celebration in Arimo. We had so much fun and those are memories I will always cherish. My holiday started off […]
Family Reunion
A few weekends ago, my little brother Jon and his entire family (Except his daughter Erin) traveled up from Nevada so he could show them the ranch we grew up on. It was a perfect opportunity for all of us to meet at Mom’s house. The only one that couldn’t make it was my […]
Ironman
I am writing this week’s story from beautiful Coeur d’ Alene. Ryan is competing in the Ironman event, so Justin, Cassidy, and I are up here to support him. I am so happy all of us can be here together. Justin and Cassidy left earlier so they could check out some of the […]
Happy Birthday Berna Deane
This is going to be a shorter story than most. I was originally going to write about spending last weekend with my family, but after yesterday, I decided I needed to talk about the surprise birthday party for my Mother-In-Law Berna Deane Lusk. It was put together by Nicki Lish and some other great […]
