Busy holiday week in Strahan area gatherings noted
Frigid Friday rain did not stop the Robert Malcom family from attending Mrs. Carl Malcom’s birthday party. The Chester McKinney home welcomed Steven and Stacey McKinney and the Gary family from Arizona. The Future Feeders and Busy Bees earned a lavish 4 H dinner at the 64 Club for outstanding club of the year. A collision with a discarded Christmas tree caused minor damage to a car but no injuries. Families visited relatives in Red Oak, Bellevue, Atlantic, Council Bluffs, Omaha, and Des Moines. Emmett and Marjorie Gipe photographed a wedding in Tabor and celebrated family visits across Iowa and Nebraska. The notes end with wedding mentions in Imogene and a festive close to the week.
