‘The Ants Go Marching One by One’

Published by admin on Thu, 06/25/2026 - 8:00am

Except at our house they are marching five or ten abreast. We have an infestation of ants this year. They seem to be here some years and some years not. They are tiny ants, not really a problem except being a nuisance.

 What are our children? What are those things we receive as a seed in our lives, meditate on, envision, work toward until we have brought forth progeny and sought to raise it in our image by our nurture?

I have always done some of the maintenance around the house, Rick was always busy on the farm or at the shop, so quite often if I could handle the project I just did it without even asking for help. I could even handle minor plumbing projects. Things like fixing faucets and the like, but I have never tackled any major plumbing fixes.

49ers memories

Published by admin on Thu, 06/11/2026 - 8:00am

I received this email from friend Tina Spragg, it brought so many memories back; memories I had not thought of for years. I read it once, I read it twice, and thought what wonderful memories to share with Greybull Standard readers.  I hope you readers enjoy this as much as I did and it brings back Days of ‘49 memories for you as well. I just hope Tina is not angling to take over my job!
