Since then we have gotten three tickets in the mail. Apparently the person who bought it hasn't registered it yet, so they keep trying to get the money from us. Really? How many times do we have to prove something that is in the state computers?

He was reared in his home town, became an expert gardener and there remained until 1911, when he went to British Columbia and engaged in the nursery business at Nelson. Not long afterward he moved to Calgary and in 1922 came to the United States and after a brief residence at Eugene, Oregon, removed to Bellingham and in partnership with is wife and the latter's sister, Miss Honor Clohessy, bought the old Sehome Hotel and engaged in the hotel business here until his death. Mr. Kennedy was twice married and by his first wife, who died in England, was the father of four children, three of whom, son, Cecil, William and Harold, all residents of British Columbia, survive. All these sons are married and have families of their own. On July 4, 1919, at Calgary, Alberta, Canada, Mr. Kennedy was united in marriage to Miss Adelia Clohessy, who survives him and who with her sister, Miss Honor Clohessy, is now operating the Sehome Hotel, which they have converted into a family hotel and apartment house. The hotel was established in 1892 and has about one hundred rooms. The Kennedys bought it from J. M. Tally and it has since been converted into an apartment house, with more than thirty apartments, one of the most popular apartment houses and family hotels in the northwest, even as the hotel is one of the oldest in this section. Mrs. Kennedy and her sister are natives of Ireland but have been residents of this country since their girlhood days. Mrs. Kennedy's education was finished in St. Mary's Academy at Portland and in the University of Oregon, from which latter institution she was graduated (A. B.) and then engaged in teaching in the Portland schools. She later took a special course in the Holy Name Normal School and prior to her marriage had engaged in teaching in high schools in Spokane, New York city, Calgary, Eugene, Oregon, and in Okanagua College in British Columbia, her specialty being Latin and English. Miss Honor Clohessy finished her school work in the Business College in Portland and became engaged in secretarial work, her first position being with the staff of the Lewis and Clark Exposition, for which service she was awarded a diploma attesting her efficiency. When the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition later was held at Seattle she also rendered secretarial service in that connection. The board of Multnomah county commissioners at Portland secured her services and she was made secretary of that commission, a position she occupied for eight years or until her resignation in 1921 and later became a partner in the Kennedy's enterprise of taking over the old Sehome Hotel at Bellingham, which place has since been her residence. Mrs. Kennedy and Miss Clohessy are members of the Roman Catholic church.

When my son was five he stuck one of his grandmother's hearing aid batteries into his ear. After a $4000 procedure to get it out,( they had to put him completely out ) we asked him why he did it, he thought he and his grandmother would be able to talk to each other when they were apart. You never know what a kid is thinking.

They wanted more that they were earning in allowence and that was the only way that they could earn it. Both of them are now adults with excellent work ethics and my three year old grandaughter has a 'chore chart' for when she picks up her toys without being told to. When she gets a line filled she gets a special outing with Mom & Dad.

All this has turned into is "lets make the other party look bad" And that goes for both parties!!!

Let a cop whap them on the head and they scream ' police abuse' louder then anyone and want the same rule of law that they are protesting to discipline the police. Make up your minds...you can't have your cake and eat it too!!

All jokes aside , this disease is not spread like human herpes is. It is spread by contact and by aerosol (sneezing, coughing, snorting) and it can be fatal.

Got lost out there once and it took us hours to find our way out and that was with a good map, a compass, a good 4WD that had excellent traction tires.
