Well, things have settled down since the holidays. We are seeing everyone recovering nicely. Erin and I made a trip to Bismarck yesterday to visit Curt. Although he still has problems with his knee, he is healing up very well. The cuts on his face have almost vanished. Steve is finally free of his various hand braces. He is really enjoying ice skating now that we got the kids some skates.

Julie is back at school now and really enjoying her classes. The plan is that she will graduate next spring (2009). Bev is crossing her fingers she gets in the nursing program at Mayo. She keeps inching up on the list. Curt is debating about what program to join. There are many factors that make his decision making process difficult.

Despite the cold wind, Steve, Tom, Brianna and I played hockey for 90 minutes this afternoon. We decided to enjoy the temperatures as they will dive later this week. Well that’s all for now.
