Wayne, I've found OWYHEE heaven just for you!

Hi Winters, I'v found a website you'll  ,  it's called "Buckaroos in Paradise". I don't remember if I sent you something about it before, but I just saw it & it's great. It's an on-line museum of northern Nevada, eastern Oregon & some Idaho ranches; cowboys; cattle; etc. & 233 old photos listed in photo index. Click on the photos to enlarge. I got all excited when I saw "stone house ranch" but it was a different one. I thought I saw Wayne in several round-up photos but I guess cowboys look alike. There's videos & audios too, of old cowboy interviews.

I bet they'd love to have your photos of the stone house & horses and those old newspaper stories of the Winters cowboys. I was on the website over an hour before Boyd made me quit to eat. It's on my "favorites" list so I'll go back when I have more time. Let me know here or e-mail me when you see it or if you've already seen it.

We're doing fine except Rylee had both eyes operated on last Wednesday & they over corrected them.  He's seeing double now & wearing glasses & a patch. They might have to operate again but David hates to see him suffer. Rylee was allergic to something & itched all over expecially his eyes. Poor little guy.

Early HAPPY BIRTHDAY THELMA. There's a birthday card in the message below for all our April birthdays. Hope you all had a good Easter. We were at Sheryls with Betty & Evan, had a delicious dinner & great day. Rylee lost his first tooth there & we found out that the tooth fairy now brings $5 with an extra $1 on special days like Easter. Inflation!

I've added a few more photos, family recipes & more Kids Corner items to this webpage, take a look.    LUV you guys. Bye for now, Leslie

A special Birthday message!

Letter to all the gang.

Hi family,

     If David stops sending me instant messages from work I will get this written & wish you all a great Easter.   I tried to get a card on here like smarty pants Sheryl but I wasn't smart enough. Tried for half a day. 

     Boyd is between well-drilling jobs, Rylee home for Spring vacation so while they're at the store I thought I would drop you all a note.

     I have canceled my long-distance phone service because they made me mad.

So if you want news from the Wood family, you'll have to look here.  I'll miss those Sunday telephone visits with Thelma. 

     We're all well and busy.  I'm still scanning photo's to my web page and adding genealogy.  Boyd is doing Spring clean-up of  the yard, garden & barn.  Rylee's got glasses {when he leaves them on}and has his eyes operated on in two weeks. It's out-patient surjury.  He will miss a couple of days of 1st grade.   I'd better close for now as I've run out of news but would love to hear from all of you, Whats Up?    Leslie

 

Easter Greeting!

Easter Greeting for all to see...

Welcome Thelma, Wayne & Jim Erlandson!

         
Thelma & Wayne have joined the family fun gang!  Since they wrote their message on the member's profile page I'll copy it here so all can see it.  They are going by the name "Lucky Lady".  "lucky that i have reid to help me get this first note on here!  wayne & I want to be part of the gang.  Hope to here from all of you soon."

Jim Erlandson hasn't signed up to be a member yet, but he did leave a message. You can read it by going to message below this & read reply # 2.

We're sure glad to hear from them, and hope to see more input from the members.  Sheryl has added to the "Kid's Corner".  I'm going to add a family recipe page and an OOPS! page.  Guess what that will be about.  We need some ideas from you!

       I am busy adding to my Allen family history this week.  Hope you all have looked at my genealogy web page by now.  Betty & Evan brought me lots of old photos to add to our history, so I'm busy scanning them.  Rylee has Spring Vacation next week so I will spend a lot of time with him.  Please take a few minutes & let us know what's up in your life.  
                                                                                      
                                                                                        Leslie

    

All the gang are assistant managers of this site.

Hi family --- To make it easier for all the family to add to this family home page, I've made you all assistant managers.  Any new members will be made assistants also. Let me know if it's still not easy to add your input.  Sheryl's going to add a page about our family picnic soon.  Hope everyone has seen our family history web page, I'm working hard on it.  Click on to Recommendations [on your left] then click Links & you can get there.  Come on guys, let's hear from you, please.     Leslie

5th try to get message here

Hi gang, David's still working on my computer but I thought I'd try again to get a message on.  Wish I new if you-all are having the problems I am, or if you just don't try.  I sure got excited when I saw the new members, but we've had no activity lately.  When I get my computer all fixed, I'm going to jazz up this home page, just to see what I can do.  Please add some photo's, recipes, favorites, messages or chats to our family home page.  I'll quit for now until I see if this finally gets on.    Leslie
