Lincoln School

Howdy, All,

I put Lincoln School as the heading this morning for a couple of reasons. First of all, if my memory is correct, yesterday was Harmon Cantrell's birthday, today is Lesle Oliver's and Wednesday is Smokey Chubb's. Correct me if you read this, and I'm wrong. Happy birthday.

Secondly, to my "Stinkin' Lincoln" classmates, I'd like to refer you to my personal blog (www.slightdetour.blogspot.com) where you'll find an item about a happening 52 years ago that could've claimed us all. The day before yesterday, I actually held in my hand pieces of the jet that crashed in the poleyard when we were in Mrs. Kinney's first grade class. Someone had brought them to the museum.

I'm sure all classmates who were in Sandpoint then remember that day, but those of us at Lincoln were just a couple of blocks away. I talked to Wanda Nordgaarden yesterday (she's a few years older than us), and she said the wing fell in her yard. Her mother's house was used as the control center after the crash.

On other matters, we're still ciphering on prices for the reunion. I think we'll wait until Donna Olson Coulter returns to Sandpoint before sending out another letter.

Saw Greg McFarland at DiLuna's the other day and teased him about Good and Plenty's from the Whatnot Shop. He said he'd be coming to the reunion in spite of my heckling. He also told me he still likes Good and Plentys.

Happy Easter to all wherever you are. Try this site: (
