Ryder News for Aug. 13, 2020
In
the wee hours of Sunday morning I was awakened by a boom of thunder
that actually shook the house! I figured it must be raining (sometimes
there is thunder and not rain) and sure enough it was and also
lightning. My rain gauge shows just over .20.
Alice Vangsness identified the lady in last week’s photo.
The gal on the end in the front row is Allegra (Bluhm) Haugen and the
lady in the back row has been tentatively identified as Dorothy
(Arvidson) Nienow.
A small memorial service will be held for Shirley Bradshaw Cunningham Aug. 29th at 5 p. m. at the Ryder ND cemetery.
If you plan to attend and have a good story about or involving Shirley please be prepared to share if you so choose. Please contact Eden Brunsell or Brad Cunningham with any questions. Shirley passed late last year but Covid has postponed her memorial.
I’ve
been trying to catch this mouse that keeps getting on my kitchen
counter and leaving his ‘tracks”. So I have to clean and disinfect my
countertops every morning. It seemed that I just couldn’t catch him! I
even put sticky traps under the kitchen sink cabinet but no luck. I
finally got more sticky traps as I had run out. I put one along the wall
on my counter and decided to put a piece of Dorito on it. Lo and
behold...the sneaky little devil didn’t even wait until dark...he zoomed
right up to it when I left the room! Ha..caught him and disposed of
him!
Vacation
Bible School started at Calvary Church Monday morning and I took Johnny
over there. He was really looking forward to going. Staci, Johnny and
her dogs are staying here in their camper for a few days while John is
in Fargo at the Air National Guard for 3 days. Hopefully she will be
able to go through some of her “stuff” at the house and get it up to her
house. Then she can help me pack up some of my “stuff” to be moved into my new home when it gets here!
Due to Covid 19, there will be no bingo in August.
There is another produce giveaway at the Ryder Food Pantry on Aug. 13 at 5 p.m.
That’s
about it for the news this week as I haven’t heard from anyone with
news to share for the viewing public...maybe next week!
