Potholes and President Trump

I imagine by now you people who live and drive in the Fabulous Silver Valley of North Idaho are tired of playing the same game over and over. The name of the game is called Dodging the Potholes. It doesn’t cost anything to join, but it could be costly. The Dike road in Pinehurst is worse than the horse and buggy days; also, the Upper Pinecreek road has so many potholes that I couldn’t count all of them. Spokane has the same problem, they are using a new mixture and I sure as hell hope that it works.

She grew up and attended schools in Kellogg, graduating from Kellogg High School in 1952. In 1954, she married the love of her life, William (Bill) Sorenson and together they raised three children: Marc, Bonnie and Steve. Arlene’s family was the center of her life.

Always competitive, she honed her golf skills winning numerous tournaments and several club championships over the years. She also loved playing cards with friends and sharing a laugh with friends and family. She and Bill moved to Hermiston, OR in 1983 and spent the next 15 years working side by side at their namesake store, Arlene’s Hallmark, before retiring in 1998. She and Bill greatly enjoyed their retirement years together, which included many memorable trips with family and friends. Arlene is survived by her devoted husband of 62 years, Bill; son Marc (Becky), daughter Bonnie Gracia (Dave) and son Steve (Maureen); sisters Jean Bellamy, Carol Poulson and Winnie DeJanevich; brother Jim Jaeger; seven grandchildren, seven great grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews.
