LIGHTS OUT! (Poles...that is)

The old elementary school building (known as Grant) which now houses the Boys and Girls Club and The Glenrock Rec Center is slated for partial demolition in the coming months. What will this mean for the building’s occupants? Don’t panic--it means very little, actu-ally. According to Kirk Hughes, Superintendent of Converse County School District #2, the only portion of the build-ing to be torn down will be at the north end of the complex--the uninhab-ited part of the building which holds the former elementary lunchroom. It is being demolished because it is the oldest part of the building, it’s in disrepair, and it isn’t being utilized. Also, the State has deemed that Converse County School District #2 has too much square footage, and the

elimination of this end of the building will help reduce the number of square feet accounted to CCSD#2 along with the maintenance required for its upkeep. This keeps the useful square footage where it belongs--with our children in the build-ings they are utilizing. An architect firm, GSG out of Casper, is in the beginning stages of put-ting together the demo-lition package. This in-cludes conferring with several different types of construction specialists (structural engineers, me-chanical engineers, elec-trical engineers), which will be on hand through-out the process to ensure the soundness and safety of the demolition. No specific dates for the demolition have been set and no company chosen to perform the delicate demo, but the School

District is tentatively looking at opening the bid process at the first of October with the school board hoping to award a contract during their No-vember meeting. The demolition will take place carefully, so as not to disrupt the other enti-ties in the building. “We want to try to keep that as a community center,” Hughes said followed by, “The School District rec-ognizes…the Boys and Girls Club is a valuable asset to the community [along with the Rec Cen-ter]…our goal is not to displace any of those…programs.” Stay posted to The Glen-rock Bird for information on the bidding process, who is awarded the con-tract, and when demoli-tion is slated to begin.

NEW JAIL A NECESSITY Reporter - Jessica Smith

Over the past few months, you’ve been reading about the proposed new Justice Center to be built in order to better serve Converse County and keep its citi-zens and its law enforce-ment officers safe. You’ve been given the website so you could see the pictures taken of the current jail and understand why it needs to be redone. This reporter is here to tell you….those pic-tures and those words hard-ly do justice to what the Sheriff’s Department has to deal with on a daily basis in that building. A tour of the current facility was given by Lt. Kathy Mitchell of the Sheriff’s Department and it was a true eye-opener. According to the Converse

County website’s Justice Center downloadable file, the ‘needs’ assessment that was performed decided that, due to current stan-dards, capacity issues, and the safety of employees and inmates, the current jail is inadequate. The jail, which is required to accept detainees from all agencies in the County--not just the Sheriff’s office, is not fea-sible to remodel or enlarge and statistics indicate a seri-ous current and future bed shortage. After what was observed at the jail during the tour, the word ‘inad-equate’ seems…well, inad-equate. The hallways are so narrow, and the offices so small that when inmates are being transported down the main hallway at the en-trance, Lt. Mitchell has to stand up from her desk and step to one side to avoid

having her back to the in-mates as they pass. The entrance to the ‘female pod’ (where they house the female inmates) is incred-ibly dangerous for its blind spot upon entering. Occa-sionally, they have to flip-flop the male and female prisoners due to capacity issues and as Lt. Mitchell stated, “The female pod, there is no way of seeing inside that pod until you’re actually inside the door-way. Therefore, if we have male prisoners on that side, it just makes it very unsafe. When entering, you’ve got to watch before you enter that cell, because they can reach through the bars and grab you.” After touring the jail, the safety issues for both the officers and the inmates

became glaringly clear. If a person has doubts that the new jail is needed, he or she need only to set up a time to tour the current facility, and those doubts should immediately dis-appear. On November 3, 2009, a one-question ballot will be put forth so the resi-dents of Converse Coun-ty can decide if they want to allow the County to add on a 1% sales tax in order to pay for the new Justice Center. Do your research. Tour the jail. Decide if everyone’s safety is worth 1%.

One dollar bid, now two, now two, will ya’ give me two? That is a typical auctioneer-ing ‘chant’ or the auctioneer’s method of rapid-fire talking. The chant, which is a series of numbers connected by ‘filler’ words, is used to hold the attention of the audience and to keep things moving at a steady pace. Glenrock is fortunate enough to have it’s own local auctioneer in a tal-ented man named Joe Vod-icka. While most of you have heard of--or already know--Mr. Vodicka, The Glenrock Bird caught up with him at Central Wyoming Livestock and talked with him about his amazing auctioneering. When Joe was just a small fry, he found himself fasci-nated with auctioneering. “…My Dad took me when I was five…and he’d clerk the sales and I’d sit in the auction block with him and I just started picking it up then…,” he said, “As a little kid, you follow along with the auctioneer and that’s kind of where I picked most of it up.” Having no formal training, Vodicka admits that he did hone his skills in 1993, when he attended an auctioneering college. “I did go in ‘93 to an auction-eer school just to fine tune, and I did that at Billings, Montana--Western College of Auctioneering,” Vodicka stated. Founded in 1948 and known as the ‘Cadillac of Auction Colleges’ the West-ern College of Auctioneering was where Joe “slept and…breathed auctioneering for ten days straight.”

“I guess when you’re sell-ing, whether it be a load of cattle or a piece of art,…I’m there to get as much money as I can get, [for the person or group] and you have to read the crowd. My chant in a cattle auction, because I’m mostly…dealing with professional cattle buyers, is a lot faster than what I do at a benefit auction and I al-ways say that if they don’t know what you’re asking for, they’re not going to bid.” He then added, “I can go a thousand miles an hour and nobody would be bidding, so I’m not doing any good…so you just slow your tempo down to what the crowd puts you into.” Along with reading the crowd to set his chant tempo, Joe Vodicka must also read the crowd’s body language in order to sell the objects he is charged with auctioning. “I watch the whole crowd,” he said, “if somebody’s sit-ting back in their chair and…they sit up on the edge of their seat, you know they’re interested.” Reading body language, reading the crowd

to set the tempo, performing an auction chant…all this while trying to get the best price for each object on the block. Can you say ‘multi-tasking’? “There’s a lot of people that just learn it on their own--that have a natural ability with numbers, and auctioneering is numbers,” stated Vodicka, “If you repeat them enough they automatically come to you, and then you use a few filler words in there…and then you just go right on with the numbers. It’s all num-bers. It’s repetitive numbers and if you’re trying to auc-tion, that’s the whole key to it--but you can’t think what that next number is…it has to [just] be there.” Joe Vodicka has done auc-tions that lasted 6, 7, and even 8 hours. How does he keep his voice going that long? If it feels like his voice is going to go, he simply changes the tone of his chant to use a different part of his voice box. Another bit of advice? “Never drink cold drinks while your selling,” Vodicka warns. Anything on ice will automatically shrink the very warm vocal chords, causing voice issues. And Mr. Vodicka uses one other method of keeping his throat moistened while auctioneer-ing--“Lots of cough drops.” Joe Vodicka was recognized by the Town of Glenrock as its Volunteer of the Month for April of this year for the many, many benefit auctions he does for local groups.

Vodicka has been involved in auctions such as Spurs and Lace, Fire and Ice, and the auction last year for the Glenrock High School Culi-nary Class who were wing-ing their way to nationals. Vodicka isn’t looking for the pats on the back, however, though he does appreci-ate them. “I’m kind of one of them guys that just--I do it just for those people…I mean I don’t expect any rec-ognition--I don’t want any,” he said modestly, “I mean I try to help as much as I can where I can and I do a lot of them…” As far as plans for retire-ment, when asked how long he planned on auctioneering Vodicka said with a grin, “… ’til I don’t have air to do it!” Joe Vodicka is a great friend to the community of Glen-rock and we are lucky to have him in our midst. Per-haps a good ‘chant’ for the townspeople to give back to Joe would be: One good man, good man, good man, will you thank him too?

The Glenrock Downtown Development Commit-tee (Glenrock’s aspiring Main Street program) is continuing work on the Centennial Walkway located between Hard-ware Hank and the Ma-sonic Lodge building. On Thursday, September 3rd, members of the group met in the Commerce Block building to coat donated artwork with sealant to help preserve the beauty of the pieces when they are placed in the walkway later this year. So far, four gorgeous paintings have been completed by local

artisans and four more are on the way! Stay posted to the bird for information on when the pieces will be up for viewing.

GLENROCK’S CENTENNIAL WALKWAY UPDATEStaff Reporter - Jessica Smith

Hakalo Family of Mormon Canyon

In the late 1800s to 1891, John G. Hakalo immigrat-ed to the United States from Finland. It took three years for him to earn enough money to send for his wife, Lisa Wilhelmina Reslakeus Hakalo. She brought with her two children, Hilda, 7, and John, 5. John worked in the coal mines in Hanna and later built a log house in Happy Hollow.

Six children were born in Glenrock: Lydia, William, Fanne, Olive and two chil-dren stillborn. Matthew was born at Big Muddy, west of Glenrock, where his Dad worked in the mine.

A homestead was filed in Mormon Canyon, just south of Glenrock. Edith was born there. John walked to Mor-mon Canyon to clear brush and trees, mostly by hand. John and Lisa taught them-selves to read English and spoke fairly well. He built a two-room log house with an upstairs, presently stand-

ing today. This is where Matt raised his family and where his son Orville and wife lived. He also built a log cow barn around 1914, which still stands today, having only the tin roof re-placed.

All the children left the ranch except Matthew (Matt). He did not go to high school. He married Charlotte Vincent on the stage of the old Colum-bia Theater in Casper on April 1, 1926, which was a publicity promotion. They had four children: Orville, Maxine, Robert and Bar-

bara. Orville married Lois Mason on July 16, 1966, and are presently the own-ers of the ranch.

GLENROCK’S HAKALO RANCH JOINS IN 100 YEAR STORIES

The Gayle Hoyer benefit auction and barbecue on August 29th at the Shore-liner Lounge proved to be a great success as resi-dents of Glenrock and the surrounding area showed up in droves to lend a helping hand. Hoyer, who is fighting breast cancer, was at the event along with many friends and family.

In an effort to raise money to offset Hoyer's medical expenses, over 150 items were auctioned. Included in the auction, among other items, were three Deadwood, SD trips, three Vivi Crandall prints, guided hunts on the Bix-by Ranch and a cruise to either the Bahamas or Mexico, which ended up as the highest auctioned item, going to Cindy Rit-ter for $1,100.

The event was orga-nized by friends and family of Hoyer, spe-cifically Glenrock resi-dents Kim Reddington and Elaine Ursey along with Douglas' Terry Burton.

Reddington, who is Hoyer's cousin, put it simply: She needed a little bit of help. "Gayle needed some help and we were just trying to do what we could."

Burton estimated that roughly 200 people at-tended the event, which raised between $19,000 and $20,000.

"It is amazing that we did as well as we did," Reddington said. "What a blessing."

was especially impressed with the turnout and the funds that were raised. "To me, it's mind bog-gling," said Ursey, who met Hoyer more than 30 years ago. "Just the gen-erosity of the people. There were people com-ing through the drive-thru making donations."

Ursey also said the event

couldn't have come to-gether without the help of many volunteers, includ-ing Holly Norgard, owner of the Shoreliner, who not only hosted the event but donated a portion of the house's bar tab to the cause. "It really turned out to be more than I expected," Ursey said. "It is hard to put into words. I couldn't have asked for anything better. It was a wonderful showing."

Reddington said Hoyer was extremely touched by the outpouring of com-munity support. "She is so moved and grateful by the generosity of this com-munity. It's just fabulous. Like I said, she is very much moved by all the people that attended."

For those who still wish to make a donation, please contact Elaine Ur-sey (436-9756) or Terry Burton (358-3031).

SCHOOL LUNCHES

G O H E R D E R S !

The Glenrock Herd-ers got off to a run-ning start August 28th at the Casper Moun-tain Invitational. The Herders' ran against teams from across the state, including Buffalo High School, Camp-bell County, Casper Westside, Kelly Walsh High School, Lander Valley High School, Laramie High School, Natrona County High School, Normative Ser-vices, Riverton, Sheri-dan High School, Tor-rington and Wyoming Indian.

Next up for the Herders was the Rawlins Invi-tational on September 4th.

At the Casper Invita-tional, Coach Allen Finch was pleased with the team's first 5K ef-fort against stiff com-petition from across the state. "They actually did really well," Finch said. "The kids that we thought would run well did, and the kids we were unsure about ac-tually ran really well."

For the varsity girls, se-nior Mary Nelson came

home 10th, with a time of 22:35. Junior Marissa Widiker took 20th with a time of 23:26. "I feel I did OK," Nelson said. "My goal was to beat my time from last year, which was in the 24s. It was not as good as I expected, but is was OK."

No boys varsity squad ran at the invitational, which Finch said isn't unusual. "There were some that could have run but I chose not to have them com-pete." However, Finch said juniors Daniel Wal-ters and Kurry Anderson will run for the boys var-sity squad at the Rawlins Invitational.

In junior varsity compe-tition, senior girls Kylie Walters finished 32nd with a time of 29:24, while sophomore Jessica Grant completed the course at 31:05, finishing 41st. For the JV boy's team, Dan-iel Walters finished 37th (22:35), Dustin Horn 38th (22:35), Kurry Anderson 45th (22:48) and Bran-don Pittsley placed 76th (25:43).

Finch had Lane Blakeley (fr.), Noah Eitel (fr.), Ste-ven Flynn (so.), Chanel Doherty (jr.), Hayley Al-lington (sr.) and Shaynna

Hoyt (sr.) run only two miles of the course for conditioning purposes. "That's how far I wanted them to race this time," Finch said.At the invitational, sopho-mores Raider Nelson and Cody Grenseman were not able to compete in the race. Nelson recently broke his collarbone and has not been released to run and Grenseman had yet to meet the required nine days of practice.

Individually, for the boys Spencer Pecha of Camp-bell County finished first with a time of 17:08. Dana Morin of Sheridan won the girl's title with a time of 19:30. Laramie High School took home the boy's team title, while Cheyenne Central won the girl's team title.

The Herders compete against Wyoming Indian, Evanston, Saratoga, Rock Springs, Little Snake Riv-er, Lyman, Lander, Kelly Walsh, Douglas, Green River, Cheyenne East, Cheyenne Central, River-ton, Thermopolis, Natro-na County and Laramie at the Rawlins Invitational.

FInch said he expected everyone to run at the event.

HERDERS COMPETE AT CASPER INVITATIONAL

6TH GRADE GETS READY TO PLAYOn Monday, August 31st, something very in-teresting was happening at the Glenrock Inter-mediate Middle School band room. Several sixth grade students, their par-

ents in tow, were buzzing about two tables looking at instruments and pick-ing out the accessories needed for the coming year in band. Each year, the wonderful people from Wyoming Music come over from Casper and set up their tables to accommodate those students who wish to purchase or rent an instrument. Owned by Dean and Beverly Lo-rimer, Wyoming Music carries everything the aspiring band student needs: from new to used instruments and music books to repairs, the group comes ready to help the kids get started. Beverly Lorimer is very

happy to be a part of the ‘ritual’ each year. “It’s ex-citing for them,” she said with a smile, “this time of year that’s what makes it fun, is they’re all so excited to play and learn…music is a great opportunity for them!”

G.I.M.S. Band Director, Jeremy Huck, is also pretty excited with his new batch of players. “It’s a good group,” he said, “They’re a good group of kids and I did get to work with them last year for half the year in a pull-out class…and they were fun to work with and they catch on quick!” The students themselves were fairly vibrating with their excitement as they pe-rused the tables looking at the instruments and pick-ing out books and cleaning kits. Carrie Schubert, who will be playing percussion, proudly stated, “Everything you see back there (indi-cating the drums and aux-iliary equipment) is what a percussionist plays.” Her

friend Bobbi Plummer will be playing the Alto Sax and is ready to show her Herder pride with her music stand. “I already have a stand,” she said, “but I’m going to spray paint mine purple!” Although the group is young, it’s a good bet that by mid-year Mr. Huck will have them sounding pretty good, and if their faces were any indication, this group of students will make for one great band!

STRIKE UP THE BAND!Staff Reporter - Jessica Smith

Reviews came back mixed after the August 29th foot-ball Jamboree scrimmage in Sheridan, which in-cluded the high schools of Tongue River, Burns, Nor-mative Services and the Herders.

The scrimmage, which was what is termed as a "controlled scrimmage," allowed the four teams to exchange 10 offensive and defensive plays, as each attempted to work out the kinks on both sides of the ball. Special teams play was not part of the scrim-mage.

Head Coach Ray Kumpula said the Herders looked good offensively at times, led by the play of senior guards Jon Likes and Col-ter Macormic. Kumpula said the play of the line, especially by those two in particular, allowed the of-fense to score four times. Senior Murphy Johnston led the way, scoring two touchdowns, followed by scores from seniors Austin Smith and Dustin Wor-thington.

"That was a bright spot," Kumpula said. "Along with the play of quarter-back Kyle Farley."On the defensive side of the ball, senior Cory De-Wald starred as linebacker, while freshman Houston Pfander and sophomore

Troy Pinkerton played ex-tremely well at nose guard and tackle, respectively.

In the defensive backfield, the trio of Smith, Farley and junior Derrick Rowe gave up only one touch-down pass. "That was good to see," Kumpula said. "But overall, our defense was pretty tentative. And offensively, our biggest weakness was finishing blocks."

However, Kumpula was also quick to point out that the junior varsity squad played very well, noting the play of junior quarter-back Tyler Kelley in par-ticular.

As the team practiced this week for their opening game against rival Kem-merer, Kumpula said the game would be a good test. "It will be a good chance to see where our young team fits in against a power in our conference. The travel will be a challenge, but we are depending on our se-nior leadership to provide that spark." Kumpula described the Rangers as a team that is equal parts big and solid, and one that does not beat themselves with turnovers. "They get off the ball, so we're going to have to match that intensity."

HERDER SCRIMMAGE PROVES GOOD PROMISE FOR YOUNG TEAM


If the Douglas Volleyball Invitational was any in-dication of what the up-coming season holds for the Lady Herders there's good reason to be opti-mistic. At the tournament, which took place August 29th, the Lady Herd-ers finished 3-3 in pool play, then went on to eas-ily beat Lusk in bracket play. In the semi-finals, the team then disposed of rival Douglas in three games, sending them to the championship game against Buffalo. And al-though the Lady Herders played strong, the Lady Bison eventually pre-vailed in three games (24-26, 25-23, 15-8).

At the invitational, ju-nior Becky Downs led the team with 36 kills. Juniors Alex Durbin (28) and Shelby Stewart (22) added 50 kills.

Coach Tara Chandler said while the trio accounted for the majority of kills, she was especially im-pressed with Downs. "Becky Downs, from the first game to the end, was like a different kid. She came huge in stride, and really progressed amaz-ingly. She attacked the ball 65 times and only had six errors. That's very impressive for a girl who hits the ball almost 70 times, to only make six mistakes. So I was very impressed with her, and this really his her first var-sity experience. She was definitely a bright spot for us."

Chandler was also pleased with the play of her set-ters, Erica Caves and

Lexie Blackburn. Caves totaled 64 assists, while Blackburn added 39. However, as well as things went for the Lady Herd-ers, they couldn't avoid battling injuries. Right side hitter Shayla Wickett blew her ankle early on in the tournament, and lie-bro Cyera Collins injured her elbow. Consequently, Kayla Bussey was forced to play the liebro. "She did a great job," Chan-dler said. "She had never played that position in her entire high school career and I put her in there af-ter the second game, in our third match, starting against Torrington. For the rest of the tournament, she just did fantastic. She was a big factor in why we made it to the champi-onships."

Chandler said she felt her team would be competi-tive, she just wasn't sure how competitive. "I knew we would be good," she said. "I knew we should be good. And I knew we should compete. The first game I was a little con-cerned because we were so tight and had so many errors. But I was really impressed with how we rallied and didn't let that get us down. And we played that way with in-juries."

In addition to the varsity team playing for the in-vitational championship, the junior varsity team won the invite, beating Buffalo's JV squad.

The Lady Herders return to the court September 4th to take on Torrington and September 5th in a triangular, facing New-castle and Thermopolis. All three are Absaraka

Conference foes, which Chandler said was a less than ideal early schedule. However, she believes the team is up for the chal-lenge. At the Douglas In-vitational, the Lady Herd-ers beat Torrington in pool play. As for Saturday's triangular tournament, Chandler said Newcastle proved their mettle in Douglas, finishing second in their pool, whereas this season marks Thermopo-lis' return to 3A competi-tion after a two year ab-sence.

"We're just going to try to put our best face on and try to build on what we did last week," Chandler said. "We would love nothing more than to be 3-0 in conference with only two weeks of the season gone. That's what we're going to shoot for."

Though Dale Evans was most famous for being married to singing cowboy star Roy Rogers, she was a talented performer in her own right. While in her late teens she appeared on radio programs and held a regular spot on the CBS News and Rhythm Show. She also had many movie cred-its to her name “Apache Pass” (1947), “Twilight in the Sierras” (1950), and “Pals of the Golden West” (1951). She and Roy appeared together on the big screen.

In digging through some history I discovered an interesting tidbit of information. Dale wrote the song, “Happy Trails”, in 1950. It seems that every cowboy had his own theme song that would play as he rode off into the sunset while the dust settled. During preparation for a radio show she decided Roy needed a song of his own and scribbled the words to Happy Trails on an envelope. She then spent 45 minutes teaching the ditty to Roy and the Sons of the Pioneers. What audiences heard on the radio that night subsequently became the most famous and well loved cowboy theme song in the nation.

I tell this story to illustrate a point. Cowboys may be the symbol of the west and the icon for what is good and true in this nation. Cowgirls however, from gunslinger to homesteader, made an equal contribution and they did it with grace, love and humility. They still do so today. The true eyes be-hind the brim belong to the cowgirl. I think most cowboys would agree.

The following letter from one of our brave boys in uniform was placed in The Glenrock Independent in past weeks and the pow-ers-that-be wanted to spread the word even further for reasons that will soon become plain. The letter reads: ‘My name is Ssgt Mi-chael Duran. I am the son of Fred and Janet Duran of Manville. I am currently serving a tour here in Afghani-stan. My mission here is to fix the HH-60G Pave Hawk helicopter for Combat Search and Rescue and MEDE-VAC missions. We here have launched over 700 missions since the

beginning of the year. The work is never end-

ing here. 12 hour days with no days off, But whatever it takes to do the mission and save lives. I have been here since the 26th of May. I am proud of my job and the work I do. I do have one request, During some of the mis-sions here, we pick up children that have been injured due to the conflict here. We, as a rescue unit, give these children stuffed animals to comfort them. We are running low on stuffed animals and balls to give the children. Each person in the unit has put money in to purchase all that we can from the base exchange. They keep run-ning out. If there is any-body there that would care to donate stuffed ani-

mals and balls, it would be an honor to show these people here that my home state cares about the children throughout the world.’Thank you,Ssgt Michael A. Duran, USAF129th ERQS/MEDEVAC When this ‘call’ went out, the good people of Glenrock responded by sending stuffed animals of all sorts to the Indepen-dent office. “The people have been so generous!” Jana Tyler, owner of the building that houses the Independent, said grate-fully. So far two large bags have been shipped out and the next group of furry friends will be on their way soon, thanks to the efforts of Michael’s

parents and an unknown benefactor who pays for the shipping. Once again, Glenrock shows the area and the world what kind of com-munity it is--one of kind-hearted, generous people who are willing to jump

in and help whenever and wherever it is needed (Having lived in several other places, many of us from the ‘outside’ know how awesome the Glen-rock community is!) More animals are still needed to soothe the suf-

fering of the tiniest ca-sualties of war, so if you would like to donate, take your stuffed toys (used are just fine) to the Inde-pendent office during nor-mal business hours.

ROCKY MOUNTAIN POWER AND DUKE ENERGY ON ‘TOP OF THE WORLD’On August 31st, in two separate press releases, Duke Energy formally announced it’s plans to build its fourth wind farm in Wyoming and Pacifi-Corp announced a power purchase agreement with Duke to acquire the full 200-megawatt output of that farm. The ‘Top of the World Windpower Project’ will be constructed east of Rolling Hills on nearly 17,000 acres of private and public land leased by Duke Energy. According to the press release, Wout-er van Kempen, president of Duke Energy Genera-tion Services (DEGS), a unit of Duke that owns and develops renewable energy, stated, “We’ve always believed Duke Energy could become a major player in the wind power industry if we ad-hered to our strategy for organic as well as oppor-tunistic growth.” The Top of the World facility will be the second-largest that Duke Energy owns and operates and its fourth in Wyoming. PacifiCorp, which does business as Rocky Moun-tain Power in Wyoming, has entered into the 20 year power purchase agreement with the fa-cility expected to be in commercial operation by the end of 2010. Accord-ing to their press release, Richard Walje, presi-dent of Rocky Mountain Power stated, “We are pleased to enter into this long term power purchase agreement and expect it to greatly benefit our cus-tomers.” The agreement is the re-sult of PacifiCorp’s re-quest for renewable re-sources from January of this year. 51 proposals from 23 entities came in to answer that request. When up and running, the 200 megawatt capacity Top of the World facility will generate enough elec-tricity to power between 50,000 and 60,000 homes on an annual basis. For more information on these titans of power, visit their websites at www.duke-energy.com or www.pacificorp.com .

THE WONDERFUL GRACE CONTRAP-TION AND THE HAD-ROSAUR BONEIn the August 30th edi-

tion of The Glenrock Bird, you may have noticed a picture of a strange-looking ma-

chine on page four. What is this machine? What was it used for? The explanation lies with a Minnesota man named Howard Grace. Five summers ago, Howard Grace and his daughter, Katie, came to Glenrock with a mission. Their mission?….to find out if Katie would really want to go into the Pa-leontological field once she experienced it first hand. Katie had been interested in dinosaurs and fossils since she was very small, and the Pa-leon Museum’s summer digs gave Howard a rela-tively inexpensive way of finding out if this was his daughter’s true path in life. Howard was interested in Paleontology as well, but with his engineering background found his niche in helping Direc-tor of Paleontology Sean Smith in difficult exca-vations and extractions of fossils from the field area north of Glenrock. Five summers (and many

extractions later) the Graces are still coming to the Paleon museum--only now they are con-sidered part of the staff--and part of the family. This is where the inter-esting machine comes in….. When Howard began talking with Sean in ear-ly Summer about their upcoming trip to the Pa-leon, he was informed of a large bone that needed to come out of the field. This conversation got Howard to thinking about the best way to retrieve said bone…. “Actually, I was looking for an aluminum frame…and I was standing in a friend of mine’s garage and I noticed that the holes in extension ladders go all the way through the step,” Howard explained with a smile, “and so then I figured that that would be a perfect place for the axle because I al-ready had the wheels…and…I figured it was one less thing to bring out to Wyoming--I borrowed the Paleon’s ladder!” With permission granted from the Paleon’s Ex-ecutive Director, Stuart McCrary, the ladder (un-der the ‘you guys break it--you bought it’ rule) was loaned to Howard so he could create his fos-sil transport…..and did

it work?….you bet! Mr. Grace relates the tale: “Today to get it out, we went down and we load-ed the [fossil in its jacket] onto the ladder with the wheels and…from there we had some stakes at the top of the hill and we put a safety rope on the lad-der. Katie ran the safety rope and she pulled from the top, and Sean and I walked the ladder with the wheels up the side of the hill and we used the wheels for handles a lot of times just to pull and drag the thing up…and then once we got to the top of the hill, we used it like a cart and we just pulled the cart along through the brush…the bigger wheels helped so it would ‘step’ over the

yucca plants and every-thing. After that, it was pretty much just a mat-ter of pulling…and stop-ping…and pulling and stopping!” The ‘thing’ referred to above is a Hadrosaur femur--or long leg bone. The Hadrosaur was a large plant-eater of the Cretaceous period and the fossil is approximate-ly 65 million years old. Sean Smith is also very appreciate of Howard for all that he does for the museum. “How-ard’s been with us long enough that whenever we come up with a prob-lem area, he has enough of an engineering back-ground and also enough

Paleo background that he can…think outside of the box and help us problem-solve things that normally just give me trouble,” Smith said, “and not only that, he’s physically capable of getting out there and doing a lot of these things…”. Smith also expressed his gratefulness about Howard’s ability to ‘think outside the box’ when he said of the ladder on wheels, “Without his personal help, without his as-sistance, we couldn’t have done it that way. He’s a great guy! A great guy who has lots of good ideas and wants to help us out!” Continued page 7

Esterbrook Road in Doug-las, from the Esterbrook Bridge to the Work Center is undergoing both con-struction and re-graveling, which will continue un-til roughly mid-October. Those who use the road are being asked to use extra caution and reduce speeds as there will be heavy equipment in use. Short delays are also pos-sible, but the road will re-main open during the con-struction phase. Flaggers and signs will be present in an effort to provide ex-tra safety.Robert Sprentall, district ranger at the Douglas Ranger District said what

is currently taking place is the county is working on the road bed, including the removal of trees and the in-stallation of drainages. The re-graveling portion has also started, and he warned that traffic could be delayed.

"I would suggest that people use Brae Road as an alterna-tive route, unless they live along Esterbrook Road," Sprentall said.

According to Sprentall, construction on Esterbrook Road started shortly after the Federal Highway Adminis-tration provided the funds, which were eventually allo-cated to the Forrest Service.

CONSTRUCTION PHASE ON ESTERBROOK ROAD

If local Glenrock resi-dents have noticed a slight haze in the air, it is in fact most likely due to smoke resulting from two fires burn-ing in the west - Cali-fornia's Station Fire, which is burning north of Los Angeles and Utah's Mill Flat blaze, which originated in the Pine Valley Mountains south of Cedar City.

To date, the Station Fire has burned more than 144,000 acres. The fire, which is only 38 per-cent contained, has also sent thick smoke spiral-ing as much as 20,000 feet into the air. The fire started August 29th and increased in size over the weekend, fueled by low humidity and high temperatures.

Utah's Mill Flat fire, which was spurred by lightening on August 25th, had grown to 12,564 acres by 6 p.m. on September 3rd and was 33 percent con-tained, up from 10 per-cent on the 2nd.

Meteorologist Roger Smith of the National Weather Service fore-casting office in Riv-erton confirmed that it was highly plausible the cause of the haze was the result of the two fires.

"We've experienced a south to west flow in the middle areas of the

atmosphere, which could have trans-ferred smoke from

Utah and California," Smith said.

Smith added that the Western and Central Wyoming National Weather Service office had observed the haze, or smoke, on August 31st and September 1st in the Wind River Ba-sin.

"We had a low pressure system move across the Wyoming and Mon-tana border," Smith said. "The wind shifted to the northwest and moved smoke further to the southeast.

Smith also said that res-idents of Laramie and Eastern Wyoming had reported seeing smoke, and that may not change for several days.

"Over the weekend we're forecasting mid level and upper level flow will increase. As a result, we could see levels of smoke increase from those fires in Utah and California."

FIRES FROM CALIFORNIA/UTAH AFFECT WYOMING SKIESStaff Reporter - Pat Callahan

And what of Miss Katie Grace? The eighteen-year-old is headed off to college in Minne-sota to study Biology and Geology--two of the fields necessary to enter into Paleontol-ogy. Her thoughts on the visits to the Pale-on? “I absolutely love it and it’s a brand new adventure every time I get out here…some-thing new and exciting happens every single year!” “Katie’s fun!” said Sean Smith of his protégé, “She has been with us a long time and is very enthusias-tic, wants to learn, and has great eyes--she finds things faster than anybody that we have right now.” Smith con-tinued with, “It’s good to see her grow up and

now head off to college and, whether she ends up in Paleontology or not is really not the issue, but her having the drive to forward in school and use her head makes us very proud.” The Paleon Museum has been a Glenrock stan-dard since 1995, and is continually growing and changing to this day. The programs they of-fer allow for freedom of thought as well as teach the ‘bare bones’ of Pale-ontology to anyone who is willing to learn. For more information on the museum or its programs, visit www.paleon.org or call 436-2667.
