Having a Centennial Celebration was a great way for Granville to “git ‘r done”. All of the comments were good and for that the committee is very grateful. The displays, entertainment, fireworks, food, and parade received the highest accolades. The following is a simplified look at what the BIRTHDAY PARTY cost:
Entertainment: $18,000
Communication: 3,500
Event Insurance: 600
City Beautification: 500
Display Buildings: 1000
There were expenses incurred by the city such as the necessary ambulance on hand all three days, the purchase of flags, garbage containers and additional labor for cleanup.
To this can be added many, many actual cash outlays which were never billed, plus thousands of hours of volunteer labor by the very dedicated committee members and those who they were able to enlist for help.
Many things contributed to the attractiveness of the town that weekend. Sprucing up of the homes and lots, citywide cleanup, colorful street benches, plantings in many locations, street flags, the Roadside Park, and signs at residences and businesses all added to the celebration’s festiveness..
Businesses and friends from out of town gave a major part of the cash that was contributed to the mail campaign prior to the celebration. Because of this and the grants received, the celebration finished with a balance, which when fully calculated, will enable this town to have a lasting legacy of the “once in a lifetime” celebration.

I LOOK OUT OF MY OFFICE WINDOW AT 430 NORTH BROADWAY IN MINOT ONTO SOME WINDOW BOXES OF BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS THAT PEOPLE WHO CARE FOR THE CHURCH HAVE PLANTED.(I GIVE YOU THE ADDRESS AS A WAY OF INVITING YOU FOR A VISIT.) THERE ARE A VARIETY OF COLORS AND TYPES. WE HAVE HAD SOME WIND AND RAIN STORMS BUT BECAUSE THEY ARE ENOUGH UNDER THE OVERHANGING EVES THEY ARE PROTECTED AND COME THROUGH UNHARMED. THEY DO NOT MAINTAIN THEIR BEAUTY ON THEIR OWN BUT REQUIRE SOME WATERING AND TENDER, NURTURING CARE.
OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD IS LIKE THAT ISN’T IT, IT HAS A BEAUTY ALL ITS OWN AND WE CAN BE BUFFUITED BY THE STORMS OF LIFE BUT IF WE MAINTAIN A CLOSE RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD, NO MATTER THE SEVERITY OF THE STORM WE COME THROUGH IT JUST FINE. GOD’S OVER HANGING EVES PROTECT US WHEN NEEDED.
A CLOSE, LASTING RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD IS NOT FREE, IT TAKES EFFORT ON OUR PART. WE MUST SPEND TIME DOING THE WATERING AND NURTURING BUT IF WE DO OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH OUR CREATOR CAN BE A GARDEN OF RICH BLOSSOMS ALL YEAR ROUND.GOD WILL PROVIDE MORE THAN ENOUGH LIGHT AND WARMTH BUT WE MUST DO OUR PART. AT TIMES THE STORMS OF LIFE MAY SEEM HARSH AND UNRELENTING BUT IF WE ARE STEADFAST IN THE CARE OF OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE DIVINE WE WILL DISCOVER ONCE THE STORM HAS PASSED THAT GOD HAS DONE FOR US WHAT WE COULD NOT OF POSSIBLY DONE ON OUR OWN.
MAY YOUR SUMMER TIME BE ONE OF GOOD FAMILY TIME, GOOD BARBIQUES, GOOD GARDENS AND SAFE TRAVELS. MAY OUR FARMERS HARVEST BE ONE OF PLENTY AND MAY WE GIVE THE HONOR AND GLORY TO GOD FOR THESE AND ALL OUR BLESSINGS

THINK ABOUT IT!
I AM SO GLAD YOU ARE SO PATRIOTIC. YES, YOU WHO STOLE THE NEW FLAG FROM OUR MAIN STREET DURING THE CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION. I HOPE YOU ARE DISPLAYING IT WITH GREAT PRIDE AND PATRIOTISM.
TO YOU WHO HAVE IN YOUR POSSESSION THE CITY'S WATER TANK PICKUP TRAILOR BOX, AND GRADER. I HOPE YOU ARE KEEPING YOUR FLOWERS AND GARDEN WELL WAERED, AND YOUR WOOD HAULED SO YOU CAN KEEP WARM OVER THE WINTER AND YOUR STREET OPEN IN CASE THE CITY CAN'T DO IT RIGHT AWAY.
TO YOU WHO THINK IT IS ALRIGHT TO PUT YOUR GARBAGE IN THE DUMPSTERS OF THE CITY. ARE YOU PAYING CIRCLE SANITATION, THE CITY RESIDENTS ARE AND EACH TIME OUT TONAGE GOES UP SO DO OUR RATES. TO YOU WHO HAVE NOTHING ELSE TO DO BUT WRITE OBSCENITIES ON OUR PICNIC TABELS AND BREAK OUT OUR LIGHTS AT THE PARK, HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO COME HOME AND SEE THIS WRITTEN ON YOUR KITCHEN TABLE, OF COURSE, IF YOUR LIGHT BULBS WERE BROKEN OUR YOU WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO SEE IT ANYWAY.
DO I SOUND BITTER? I GUESS I DO, BUT I TAKE GREAT PRIDE IN MY COMMUNITY AND HAVE TO WATCH THE SPENDING, SO WITH EACH LITTLE INFRATION THAT IS COMMITTED ANOTHER DOLLAR HAS TO BE FOUND.

JUST A THOUGHT. . .
WELL, I MADE IT THRU. THRU SURGURY, THE CENTENNIAL AND THE WEDDING. AND I'M STILL KICKING, MAYBE NOT AS HIGH, BUT STILL KICKING. THIS HAS BEEN QUITE A SUMMER. BUT IN THE FAMOUS WORDS OF DR BRUDERER, "IN A YEAR IT WON'T MATTER". THE SURGURY WENT PRETTY WELL. OF COURSE, I GOT HOLLERED AT A LOT FROM MY FAMILY FOR DOING TOO MUCH OR LIFTING SOMETHING TOO HEAVY. I HAVE A TENDANCY TO JUST DO IT MYSELF INSTEAD OF ASKING FOR HELP. I DID ASK FOR HELP A FEW TIMES AND I HEALED JUST FINE. GETTING USED TO THE EATING IS ANOTHER THING. I STILL CAN ONLY EAT VERY LITTLE, NO BREAD AND NOT VERY FAST. I HAVE TO CHEW, CHEW, CHEW! ONE OF THE REASONS I AM SO HEAVY IS CAUSE I ATE SO FAST I FORGOT TO TASTE THE STUFF IN MY MOUTH. THAT IS A HARD HABIT TO BREAK. I VERY RARELY SIT DOWN AND EAT. I USUALLY EAT ON THE RUN. SO I WOULD EAT TOO MUCH TOO FAST AND WHEN I REALIZED I WAS FULL, I WAS TOO FULL. NOW WHEN I EAT TOO FAST, I PUKE. IF I EAT BREAD, WHICH WAS ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS, I PUKE. IF I DRINK POP, I PUKE. IF I DRINK TOO MUCH WATER, I PUKE. SO IF YOU SEE ME SOMEWHERE BENT OVER DON’T WORRY, I PROBABLY DID SOMETHING WRONG AND I AM PAYING FOR IT. I'LL BE FINE! JUST GIVE ME A MINUTE.
THE CENTENNIAL WHEN GREAT. THERE WERE A FEW LITTLE FLUBBS BUT "IN A YEAR IT WON'T MATTER". ONE THING ABOUT IT, WE WON'T BE AROUND FOR THE NEXT ONE TO COMPARE.
THANK YOU TO LUCILLE WHO GOT ALL OF US GOING AND MAKING IT RUN SMOOTHLY.
HOLLY'S WEDDING WAS ONE OF THE BEST DAYS OF MY LIFE. SHE IS SO HAPPY! SID AND HOLLY ARE BEST FRIENDS AND THAT MAKES A VERY

GOOD START FOR A MARRIAGE. ON THE WEDDING DAY, AFTER I HAD WALKED UP THE AISLE WITH TODD AND SAT DOWN. ALL THE WEDDING PARTY HAD COME UP AND TIM WAS SIITING BESIDE ME, IT WAS LIKE I JUST WOKE UP AND REALIZED "HEY, THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING!" WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DAY IT WAS, TO HAVE FRIENDS AND FAMILY ALL TOGETHER IN A MY YARD VISITING, LAUGHING, IT WAS GREAT. THAT WAS WHAT HOLLY ALWAYS WANTED. THANK YOU TO ALL WHO CAME FOR HELPING US MAKE IT A SPECIAL DAY FOR THEM.
I AM GLAD THESE THINGS ARE OVER. NONE OF THEM SEEM TOO STRESSFUL NOW. NEXT WEEK THERE WILL BE SOMETHING ELSE THAT SEEMS STRESSFUL BUT IT WILL BE FINE.
BY THE WAY I HAVE LOST ALMOST 60 POUNDS. THAT'S LIKE A CHILD, OR A CALF, OR A LARGE DOG. CAN YOU IMAGINE! I SURE FEEL BETTER AND I CAN ACTUALLY DO THINGS I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO DO IN YEARS, LIKE CUT MY TOENAILS WITHOUT HAVING TO BE A CONTORTIONAIST ON THE BED TO DO IT. I STILL HAVE A WAYS TO GO BUT I AM FEELING GREAT. WE HAD A VERY GOOD TIME ON OUR VACATION. OF COURSE, OUR GROUP ALWAYS HAS FUN TOGETHER. TIL NEXT TIME, ENUF SAID, JO

Secrets of Life
On the day God created the cow, God
said, "You must go to the field with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves and give milk to support the farmer. I will give you a life span of sixty years."
The cow said, "That's kind of a tough life you want me to live for sixty years. Let me have twenty and I'll
give back the other forty." And God agreed. Very pleased with his work,
God then created the monkey. God said, "Entertain people, do make them laugh. I'll give you a twenty-year life span.
The monkey said, "How boring, monkey tricks for twenty years? I don't think so. Give me ten years and I'll give you back the other ten." And God agreed again.
God then created the dog. God said, "Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in
or walks past. I will give you a life span of twenty years."
The dog said, "That's too long to be barking. Monkey
gave you back ten, so that's what I'll do too, okay? " So God agreed.
Finally, God created man. God said, "Eat, sleep, play, marry and enjoy your life. I'll give you twenty years."
Man said, "What? Only twenty years! Tell you what, I'll take my twenty, and the forty the cow gave back,
and the ten the monkey gave back and the ten the dog gave back, that makes eighty, okay?" "Okay," said
God, "You've got a deal."
So that is why the first twenty years we eat, sleep, play, and enjoy ourselves; for the next forty years we slave in the sun to support our family; for the next
ten years we do monkey tricks to entertain the grandchildren; and for the last ten years we sit on
the front porch and bark at everyone.
Now you know.... Life has now been explained.
