Shen-Fest


77º here in Clarinda, IA at 7:30 pm Tuesday.  Has gotten to 90º the last couple days, but into the 50's at night.  

Enjoyed our day Saturday with Patty Steckelberg while we attended Shen-Fest (Shenandoah Festival)  Had a lengthy parade and had great weather for it.




 After eating in downtown Shenandoah we attended the Aden Everly concert.  Aden is the son of Don Everly, who with his brother Phil Everly, were the Everly Brothers from the 50's & 60's of Rock & Roll Fame.  They grew up in Shenandoah.

Finally gotten around to trimming the hedge in the back yard.

Am working in the shed to get insulation and boards up for the last of the west side of the shed.  Will still have some on the east side---which will wait for another year.

Few more pictures from Saturday in Shenandoah.  After the parade we spent some time in their Museum downtown and met several friends.

Hadn't seen June Miller for some time.  Her husband, Bob, worked for us for many years at Coin Grain Corp. and she did some office cleaning occasionally there, also.


GROANER'S CORNER:(( A wife went to the police station with her next-door neighbor to report that her husband was missing. The policeman asked for a description.  She said, "He's 35 years old, 6 foot 4, has dark eyes, dark wavy hair, an athletic build, weighs 185 pounds, is soft-spoken, and is good to the children."  The next-door neighbor protested, "Your husband is 5 foot 4, chubby, bald, has a big mouth, and is mean to your children."  The wife replied, "Yes, but who wants HIM back?"
