Trees Fall in Priest River

What a terrible site on the nite of July 26, 2009 the winds really started blowing around, 60 miles an hour and the rain came down in buckets.

The weather center called it a tornado it was awful. These picture were the huge trees in front of the Jr High school on Highway 2 in Priest River. I will post more pictures as they come in.. so keep in touch. Thank goodness no one was hurt and in time everything will be back to normal.

Jack's Great-grandparents

This picture is one of favorites and the only one I have of my great grand parents.I never met my greatgrandma she died.

But in 1962 I got to meet Great Grandpa Yoder, he lived in Missoula Mont with his daughter my great aunt Tennie Yoder.

I was only about 5 or 6 years old back then and one thing I can remember is see my Great Grandpa wearing a nite cap and a gown just like they wore in the old western days.

Sharing the Pool.

Well its now been almost three months since six Canadian gosling eggs were brought to me, to finish hatching out.

Im happy to say they all survived and are doing great. They really enjoy the water,and grazing in the large fields in the area.

I would quess any day now they should be ready to fly away and be on there own, Im hoping when they do that they will return and have goslings of there own.

Enjoying the being alone.

Im not real sure where these pictures were taken, either Montana, or while dad was in the Navy at San Diego Calif.

I was about 2 or 3 years old, so long ago. What a simple life.

Toddler time

This photo is in my jonny jumper, it was a blast I drug it all over the place.

Baby Jack

This photo is me in the crib even back then I always had smile to share.

The card is when I was born the hospital gave it to mom showing my time of birth the date of birth and the doctor I cant believe after 55 years I never lost it.

The Good Life In Priest River.

This place they call Priest River is a neat place to live and have a business.Every night I can walk about 1 mile and swim in the river.
