Thiirsrinv, L O Imgon news Fra nets Rose W if so n 922- 3352 Irrigon is a small commun ity of 599 people but it is "back home" to many people scat . tered around the world. Among them are Major and Mrs. Keith Gronquist who are now in England. Mr. and Mrs. Roy Davis and daughter, Wanda Shade, re cently visited daughter, Bar bara, and son-in-law, Keith, in England. Gronquist grew up in Boardman and the young couple attended Riverside High School. Major Gronquist is in England on an R.A.F. exchange program with the U.S. Air Force. They will spend two years in England. Mr. and Mrs. Davis both agree that England is a beautiful country to visit but they were happy to get home to the dry climate we enjoy here. One week out of the three weeks they spent was nice weather, the rest was rainy and windy. They saw Buckingham pal ace and Big Ben as well as several ancient castles, some of which were built in 60 A.D. Roy was puzzled as to how they were built with big stones so many years ago without the help of the heavy duty equipment we have today. He said you would see many bicycle riders and could understand why with gas at $3 a gallon. He said the narrow roads were lined with hedges until you felt like you were driving through a tunnel. Many of the homes were 400 - years old with thatched roofs. . Mrs. Davis said she espec ially enjoyed going to a live theater in London, and spend ing a day shopping with her daughters.
