Christmas is just
around the corner. The
homes are decorated, Main
Street looks bright and
cheerful and families" are
looking forward to having
their college students come
home for the holiday. There
are concerts, parties and
Santa appears in various
places so the children can
talk With him.
My son, Nathan Shum-
way, finally realized that
the cold weather around
here is just not going to let
up for a few months and he
returned to his home in Pa-
tagonia, Ariz. He called to-
night and said he's final-
ly warm at 85 degrees. He
was in the Cowley area for
five months and our fam-
ily members enjoyed hav-
ing him here. He survived
South Pass and said the
roads were fine except in
the Wind River Canyon.
We have a new neigh-
bor, Nadine Larsen bought
Dessie Woodis' home right
behind us and has been in
town since November. She
is from Salt Lake City. Her
son Boyd and daughter-in-
law Julie Larsen and six
boys bought Randy and
Dione Townsend's home
last year. Mrs. Larsen said
she loves Cowley, that the
people are so friendly and
have welcomed her, and
her youngest grandson
comes over to her house af-
ter grade school and keeps
her company. She spends a
lot of time with her grand-
sons and she is happy to be
here.
She said she just at-
tended the Rocky Moun-
tain High School Christmas
Concert and is glad that
she doesn't have to fight
traffic to attend the many
events held in the area. She
also mentioned that people
have told her that it really
doesn't snow much here,
but she was caught in that
heavy snowstorm last week
and when she returned
from the Red Apple she
couldn't see much and her
turn into her driveway was
too sharp and she got stuck
in a snow bank. Luckily
her friends Ken and Sha-
ron Blackburn, were pretty
close by and helped dig her
out. Welcome to Cowley.
When we grew up in
the 1940s and 50s there
was some property that we
called Tucker's Hill. All the
young kids rode their bikes
and scooters and horses up
that hill and we thought it
was like a mountain. In the
winter we would ride our
sleds and some kids would
even ski there. Grand-
mother Tucker would nev-
er sell the land because she
just knew an LDS Temple
would be built there some-
day. We had many won-
derful hours of the day and
early evenings on that hill.
The Tucker family lived in
a home right by the land
as long as they were alive.
Their son Jim Tucker has
inherited the place.
Dr. John Bennion, son
of the late Wayne and Reva
Bennion and his wife, Mar-
garet, daughter of Alys
Welch Winterholler and
the late Bert Winterholler,
have recently bought a lot
in Cowley and are in the
process of building a'home.
John and Margaret live in
Billings, where he is a den-
tist and he said that the
home should be finished by
July 1. Dr. Bennion's broth-
er, Dan Bennion of Pow-
ell, is in charge of building
the new place. The couple
is looking forward to mov-
ing back home for the sum-
mer months and when they
retire they will return for
good.
Neil Simmons has
bought the other lot. Neil
was raised in Cowley with
his brother Roland and sis-
ter Marguerite Strom. Their
parents are the late Vernal
"Fat" and Lizzy Simmons.
Roland and his fami-
ly live on the home site of
their parents and has built
a beautiful new home there.
Marguerite and Moody's
lumberyard used to be on
the Tucker land and soon
the brothers and their sister
will be close to each other.
John Bennion told me
an interesting event that I
never knew. John told me
that when the new LDS
church was built, dirt from
TuckeFs Hill was given to
the church so the contrac-
tors would have enough
dirt to level the land. That's
the reason Tucker's Hill
has looked so small the last
years. The young people
who grew up here all have
their own memories of our
famous hill and it will be
nice to have the two fami-
lies living on our "sacred"
play yard.
Allred are pleased to an-
nounce the marriage of
their daughter, Stephanie
Veronica Allred, to Scott
Workman Winters, son of
Norman and Marla Win-
ters. They will be married
in the Billings Temple on
Dec. 21, 2010.
Stephanie graduated
from Rocky Mountain High
School in 2010 and has been
attending Brigham Young Scott and Stephanie
University in Idaho. Scott
graduated from Burlington Riverside Spanish Mission
High School in 2004, served and is attending Northwest
a mission in the California College.
Burnham/Block summer
wedding planned
Ken and Diane Badget
of Cowley have announced
the engagement of their
grandson James Burnham
to Rachel Block.
Burnham is currently
serving in the U.S. Navy.
He graduated from Rocky
Mountain High School
in 2007 and is a nuclear
power reactor operator on
board the submarine USS
San Juan SSN-751.
Rachel is the daughter
of Debra and James Block
and resides in Orland Park,
Ill. She is employed as an
accounting assistant for an
insurance company in Chi-
cago.
A mid-summer ceremo-
James and Rachel
ny is planned. Following
their wedding, the couple
hopes to come to Cowley to
visit family and friends, af-
ter which they will return
to Maine to begin the ad-
venture of a lifetime as a
Navy family.
