Let the games begin ~ June 30, 2004
David Heiller We are hosting a big family reunion this weekend. About 20 people will be here for a couple days. I’m not sure what we’ll be doing for a lot of that time. My sisters were supposed to plan some activities, but last I heard they hadn’t put anything together. Our homestead, the venue for a fun-filled family reunion So as I ’ ve been working around the farm the last few days, I ’ ve come up with some creative games that I think everyone will enjoy. I ’ m sharing them here in case you need them for a reunion of your own. Move the Freezer. The chest freezer in the barn needs a new home in our basement. This simple game takes four strong adults to carry it to its new location. Kill the Burdock. This is a healthy activity that appeals to the outdoorsman. Glen Jostad is the honorary chairman, since he is an authority on the subject. We will each be given a garden spade, which Glen will sharpen. Then we will walk back and forth on our six acre home site and use the spades...
