A.M. Thursday Morning................
There was a Pounding on our
door......Again and Again...Cassi & Gwen answered....It was
the POLICE.....Huh?....snow ordnance? Nope, he said our back
yard was on FIRE!! Huh?....I finally arrived and then looked
and there were FLAMES everywhere...Our chicken coop was a
blaze and so was our neighbor's wooden fence...Firemen were
already working on it....My neighbor, who called it in was
emptying his fire extinguisher. Man, it was scary and cold
outside....The firemen worked for about an hour and a
half...lots of nooks where the fire could
smolder......Chicken coop was totaled....all chickens were
dead, including a duck or two....damage to neighbor's
fence....Could have been so much worse....a heating lamp
caused it.....Thank God Gwen put the coop as far from any
house as possible.... The Firemen and Police were awesome.
We were lucky.... |

So,
Every Christmas You Watch The Movie, "It's A Wonderful
Life?...have the younger generations ever seen it?
I found this very
entertaining, short story with info that I bet you have
never heard about....Did you know the movie was a box office
flop? Television made it a classic....The angel who helped
save Jimmy Stewart was named "Clarence".....Did the movie
come out BEFORE, DURING or AFTER World War
Two?...........AFTER.....Our mother, Dorothy, loved Donna
Reed, who was born near Denison and not real far from where
Dorothy lived for a short time in the Manila area......This
is a GREAT little story.....CLICK

Larry & Jan's
60th Wedding Anniversary!!
Wow! 60 years ago! Friday, Aug. 18th. And such a great
family of kids and grandkids, and Jan has been such a strong
member of the Tryon Family...both Larry and Jan were sophomores at BV,
starting their junior year, I
think.....Wow....Sioux Rapids, Ia...1963...I was 13 and
remember the wedding well...I got in trouble for marking
Dale's car up with "Just Married" stuff.....(Bill gave me
the shaving cream/cans etc...Randy helped...everyone laughed
but Dale....) ...This was he day my "ornery" brothers
kidnapped the bride and groom....yes, "innocent" Ray, Bill,
Dale, Gaylord and Jerry....I would say, 5 ring
leaders....hauling LT and escorting Jan away.........boy, was C.L. mad......and GT got the brunt of it....as told, many,
many times by GT....as Dad stopped in Sac City on the way
home and really gave it to him..........I am sure there is much that I do not know about
this infamous incident.....a very blessed day!! We
sure miss Larry and all of the "gang". Bless Be The
Tie That Binds....To All..... |

\Sportsmans
Tiki Bike Ride, Saturday Aug. 5th!
Dave, Dan and Don are hosting their
annual bike ride around the lake. Got the following email
from Dan:
My first bit of news is that Danny, Donnie,
and Dave are hosting our annual Sportsmans Tiki Ride on
Saturday 8/5/23. We previously talked about doing a Tryon
reunion on the day after (8/6), but we will not be doing
that this year. You are still welcome to come to the fund
raising ride we do on 8/5. Last year we helped raise over
$30,000 for our trails and this year we expect 700-1000
riders. Wow!
Next possible get together is tailgate party
for UNI at ISU on Sept 2nd. We have a lot of UNI and ISU
grads in this family. We will even let the Hawkeyes in the
family attend. Hope to see you there. Dave is host of this
famous tailgate party.
Thought I would start a fb group to see if it
is of interest to a lot of us. I know not everyone is on fb,
but this is one way to get the word out about family get
togethers or family news we want to share. And, of course,
Dick’s website is the best place. I sent fb invites today
7/21/23 to those on my feed. Feel free to add those I’m
missing. Fb site is called “Tryon Family”
Sounds like great, Tryon fun!! |

TRYON
SAP OF THE MONTH
A couple of weeks ago, I
was home alone....and decided to cook......Now this urge
does not come my way very often......My daughter has banned
me from using the burners on the top of stove, (another
story for another time) but I can and do use the
oven.....(Jack's Pizzas).....Well, she was not around, who
would know?.....I decided I could micro wave soup, but
thought I would make grilled cheese to go with the
soup.......Now, I remember what Mrs. Oxenford told us back
in middle school......butter the OUTSIDE of the
bread.....put cheese in the middle...cook until golden
brown.....use fry pan......NO PROBLEM.......even a Biden
supporter could do this.......
So I turned on the
burners.....I could not read them very well, but figured the
more I turn to the right, the higher the heat.......I
buttered slices, added cheese and gently put them in the
pan.....and waited....they were smoking pretty good and I
got to worrying that I had the burner TOO HIGH.......and
then I remembered......I had to be very careful about the handle
of the frying pan......I could have a disaster and spill and
burn every thing...including me....THE PAN's HANDLE MUST BE TURNED TOWARD
THE INSIDE to prevent me knocking the pan to the
floor.......so I look, but I CANNOT find the handle to the
fry pan.....WTF?.......(remember my vision is not the
best)......Ooops.....then I discovered the SAP moment.....I
had put the buttered bread directly on the burner....NO
PAN.....It looked like a pan to me....Big Mistake....notice
photo.......burnt grease, butter splattering
everywhere......When my girls came home, they cleared the
smoke and noticed right away.....Grandpa's been
cooking....(How do you turn off those smoke detectors
again?).........and my sandwich was pretty crisp and
burnt......soup was good, however.....SAP OF THE
MONTH......I am now back on probation....
Oops......Big Mess
Looked like a fry pan to me... |

Oh, What A Night.....
There was a TEAM TRYON
entered @ the Glidden Booster Club fundraiser last
Saturday night....But what a joke.....Very, very,
very few trivia questions asked....mainly "pop"
questions to fit the under 35 crowd. We were by far
the oldest team entered.....Music blasting so loud,
no one could talk or visit. 6 minutes or more
between questions....(took 3 hours)...only 45
questions....3 crappy categories....Pop, new movies
and recent music...That was it.....Randy, Nancy,
Warren, DBT, Jerilyn, Tammi, Gwen and Alexis
competed.....but it was not really a competition as
they "helped" teams with answers and hints.....only
8-9 teams were there....(Nevada would have over 50
teams, sometimes)....We were in the middle of the
pack.....Alexis, Gwen and Tammi led the way.....most
of us snoozed.....and kept looking at our
watches/basketball scores......Not sure RT or Nancy
answered any....Oh, Randy did get Snow White, the
movie..(first full length animation) ..and he got
the last song....Sandman by Metallica...and
Oops....Nancy did get an Elvis question right......I did not
know there was more than one Kardashian....this
was not the Trivia that Nevada does/did....100
questions/10 categories.
Gwen
and Alexis got into my closet and swiped a couple of
my Tryon sweatshirts...which was cute, but they cut
one up....I now have a mid-riff, Tryon sweat shirt
to golf in..... The stinkers.....but it WAS great
seeing everyone and thanks to Randy, Mr.
Entertainment, for hosting....There were lots of
laughs, if you could hear anything. |
JIM

bypass, which went well, but ever since, he cannot
eat or sleep....He has lost
massive
weight and has been in and out of the hospital and
special centers......They just cannot find what is
wrong...His lack of food has led to fluid in a lung
and a small blood clot, which they have
fixed.....Prayers needed. Photo of Jim golfing last
summer. And enjoying RT's patio cook out. |
