July 25, 2013

Tomorrow, Friday July 26th at 6 p.m. the Max Senior Citizens will be having their potluck and meeting at the Senior Center on Main Street.

Max's Annual Roughrider Rodeo will be held August 2-3.  It is always a fun time for adults and kids with the mutton busting. Let's hope for good weather.

The month of August keeps moving on with swimming lessons being held in Minot on August 5-9. Call Amy Hauf at 500-2857 for more information.

Is your world getting smaller, as the saying goes?  Margaret and Eugene Zaderaka's sure is, especially for Margaret. We were in Bismarck last week and following the appointment, the doctor and Gene were 'farming', as men do when they visit. The doctor said he was raised on a farm by Wishek, N.D. "My oldest sister, Florence Wiest, lives there!"  The doctor knows her; she taught home ec. to his sisters; and because of Florence, he now has his Grandmother's German Bible that he cherishes. That came about when Florence found it at a garage sale! She then gave it to the Mother, in assisted living there in Wishek, and then the son got it. He said Florence is such a wonderful person, 'she didn't even keep the Bible, she gave it to us!" My sister, Florence, felt very special when I told her about this.
