III Issue 11M Ponderosa Thanksgiving Causes Reflection As the whole of America comes off of their high from all the chemicals in the turkey that they ate the day before and things come back to normal, We reflect on the Thanksgiving Day just passed. It sure was festive at the Ponderosa. The wine flowed pretty freely. There was even a bottle of Sparkling Burgundy that was non alcoholic for all of the kids. Food? Of course. And on top of everything, an unexpected guest. A young man named Colton. He is a friend of Ashley "Ashcan" Pothast. He was treated like a member of the family, as Mary Hinkle observed, "There is always room at the table". To say he was treated like one of the family is not quite right, he was treated better. He enjoyed himself immensely as well. Everything was "The best ever". The turkey, the potatoes, desserts. Not once did he complain. He treated the Hinkle's better than family as well. Colton claimed that this thanksgiving was the best he ever had, which makes one wonder what his everyday life is like. One thing is for sure, he was truly thankful for everything he received yesterday. May that be said of all of us this Holiday season. Wedding Bells in Faulkton The Methodist Church in Faulkton will set the scene for the new life of Dianne Hoffman and Harry Macek. For on this evening at 6pm the two of them shall be one flesh. For Dianne and Harry, this will truly be the first day of the rest of their lives. They came upon this marriage late in life, but like the man said, "Better late than never". This marriage, like any other, will not be easy. They will have good times and bad. To enter in this new phase of their life together, they will need faith, hope, and love. These they have overflowing. It has been reported to the Holabird Advocate that Greg and Susan Geitzenauer of Eden Prairie, Minnesota will be singing at the ceremony. Their daughter Clare "The giggler" Geitzenauer will be singing something at sometime as well. Reverend Jerry Hinkle is planning on going to the local piggly wiggly to buy a box of Dolly Madison Zingers since he didn't send his RSVP in time. He intends on feeding everyone who is hungry with that box. "The guy I worked for fed 5000 people with a couple loaves of bread and a fish!", Rev. Hinkle declared. "So I can feed that crowd if I have to!" Joyce Ferris To Make Return Trip Ken and Joyce Ferris are planning on going to Arizona to work the Ember Gold Mine sometime in the future. Before that, Joyce will stay at the Ponderosa Pines Old age Assistance Home for a while beginning next Wednesday. In the next month, Joyce will also have to go to a specialist in Sioux Falls to be given the old poke, prod, and cough. Both Ken and Joyce were seen at the Ponderosa on Thanksgiving Day and looking well, all things considered. Wine must agree with some folks. Everything in moderation. All of us here at the Holabird Advocate hopes that Joyce has less than moderate trouble as she recovers.
