Hello,
everyone! I apologize for missing last week, but I have a
plausible and wonderful excuse. My daughter and son-in-law, Nicole
and Jasper Bloom, presented my husband and I with a beautiful new
granddaughter, Aspen Joyce. She was 7 pounds and 9 ounces and 20
inches long. The new parents are doing well and are quite proud
they produced such a charming little creature.
My son and his
wife, Chuck and Stacy Hartley of Aumsville, Ore., are waiting for
their child to born in the next couple of weeks. Bob and I will be
heading that way shortly thereafter, so if I miss a column or two,
I'll be busy being a Grandma.
Rebuilding
main
After the
reconstruction of Main Street, it is beautiful this year. The new
trees are blooming and growing taller every day.
Travis Peterson,
the city's tree guy, is taking good care of them and keeping them
nice and healthy. Good job, Travis!
The city held an
Arbor Day Celebration on May 5 and planted trees in Larry Price
Park. Despite the day being cool and rainy, about 40 people
attended. The kids especially enjoyed digging in the dirt and
getting very dirty.
Stampede Street is
now open, and the finishing touches will be completed in the next
two weeks.
This column is
rather short this week as I didn't have time to gather information
but I'll do better next week.
We just moved, and
now that the weather is nice, I have been mowing and landscaping. I
love the many smells of spring in Wyoming!
If anyone has any
news to be included in the column, please call 746-4818 or e-mail

wonderful week.
