Here is Gary out checking a trap line. This is a trapper's cabin built by a former Kako missionary about 30 miles round trip from Kako. He and Ray were setting traps for martin, lynx and wolverine.
Margo and Cayla going out to dinner at Donlin Creek Mine during the Kako Women's Retreat at Snow Gulch in October.
Best friends. Kira and Alissa and their mommies, Mary Ann and Cayla
Kako Women's Retreat. Vera, Carolyn, Cayla, Eunice and Margo. What a special time of rest, relaxation and fellowship hosted by our friend Carolyn at her home at Snow GulchGold Mine.
A fierce January wind storm lifted the roof on Kako's hangar building. The guys were able to pull the roofing back over the gaping hole with the help of the front end loader and cables, but major repairs will need to be done when the weather is more forgiving. We are grateful that no one was hurt and the planes weren't damaged.
This is our home in the right front of the picture and the row of staff and guest houses on the hill behind our house.
And i thought we were cold. i enjoy the photos and notes. Have you had time to quilt, margo?
ReplyDeleteThanks Gary and Margo for the update. Lots of great memories from the time with you at Kako. Do they still do the fourth of July parade? Debbie's Amy is getting married to Matt Neumann in Maui, Hawaii, next Feb.4, 2010. Matt's father is running for Governor of Wisconsin. When he was a congressman he was responsible for turning a 9 billion dollar deficit into a 9 billion dollar surplus. Now he is building homes that use solar and wind power. Lori's still teaching Art in East Troy, WI and out of 7 State finalists 5 were her students. Debbie and Tim are moving to a smaller home on Florence Lake, Okauchee, WI, so last night my son Mike came from Minocqua (I drove up to Minocqua to watch his three daughers win first place ribbons and medals for the Conference Swim Meet)to finish drywalling, sanding and texturing. We finished at 9:30 pm last night. Debbie, Lori and Amy are the only ones of my children that have been to Kako. The Kako experience will always be a highlight of our lives. With appreciation and love through Christ, Art Angove. Arthur E. Angove, D.O., General Surgeon, Ret., New Berlin, WI
