St. George Store
The Store in St. George was takin down October 27, 2010. To many this house was an eye-soar but to many others it was known with too many memories.
The store had been in operation since before the Dakota uprising. Harvey Palmer operated the business from 1951 to1964. In June of 1964, Elmer and Louise Penkert purchased the general store and tavern. (Craig's Grandpa and Grandma - Patty's Parents). After operating the store for over 13 years the store closed its doors forever August 22, 1978. Myself I don't remember the store but minutes before it was torn down Roger was walking through. He pointed out the place that he proposed to Patty. Now knowing the landmark of memories is now gone.
The Lafayette Excavating was hired to take the house down with the help of many other. Hauling the loads were Jim Gleisner, Roger Beranek, Lafayette Excarvating truck and Holy Land Haulers - Matt Wendinger.
They started on Wednesday and still getting the final layer of gravel on as of Friday.

Tooth Fairy
The tooth fairy came to our house last night and it wasn't for Brianna.
Emily lost her 1st tooth. I am really stocked.
Yesterday Emily was having bloody secretions and we didn't know why.
We were thinking she had a sore in her mouth.
After supper I wanted to get to the bottom of this bloody stuff.
Sure enough all of a sudden there was a tooth on top of her tongue.
The cup that we use was the same cup I used growing up. It is a Happy Joes cup which is now wore off
Some people put their tooth under their pillow and our house put it in a cup.
(with water I may add. I don't know why)
Funny thing is mom had us put it in cabinet that dad had his change bowl and wallet.
The tooth fairy treated us well.

Why can't I go?
Sam is attached to Craigs hip. Goes with him everywhere.
When Craig went to go plow or something Sam was just devastated that she couldn't go with.
