Ione takes easy win over Arlington
By Anne Morter
It was full steam ahead for the
lone Cardinals last week as they
won three basketball games, put
ting away Arlington on Tuesday,
Jan. 28, 75-50; downing a tenan-
cious Echo squad on Friday, Jan.
31 77-61; and defeating Condon
for the third time this season on
Saturday, Feb. 1,76-65. The two
league wins over Condon give
the Cards a grip on the number
one spot in the West Division of
the Big Sky Conference. The
Cards league record is now 8-1
and their season mark is 13-3.
Injuries to the Arlington team
made the Tuesday win an easy
one for lone. The Cards held a
41-17 lead at the half and con ington also had a good shooting
tinued to roll in the second half night, hitting 22 of 53 for 42 per-
for the 75-50 victory.

Last week family members buried me with all my beloved posses
sions, hoping I would rest in peace. But I stubbornly refused to give
up. With a mind set on producing stories yet to be written, I clutch
ed my trusty pencil and found some air space.
The reality of a major household moving party here on the ranch
proved to be a traumatic experience. On paper, it seemed easy to
move into a double-wide manufactured house to make room for fami
ly. But what no one realized is that it took 33 years to fill a four
bedroom house with a sentimental collection; some of which even
the poorest Russian families wouldn’t want.
We’re far from settled in while the raw ground beckons outside.
It’s like being a guest in someone else’s home. After years of ac
commodating the junk of three kids (even after they left home), as
well as hired men, guests, the dog and on occasions a sick calf, the
two of us are jockeying for space like banty roosters squaring off
for territorial domination.
Big sacrifices had to be made such as my very-old second hand
desk that refused to go around doors. Because of an attachment for
its time in service, I declined our son’s offer to saw off the legs.
So, just like college days, a typewriter stand was temporarily erected
using a table leaf, a small filing cabinet and an oddball end table.
What really hurts is the loss of important things during a move.
Setbacks like that can even cause a non-union workforce to strike,
especially when what’s missing is the peanut butter. And somewhere
hides a pet extension cord-the lifeline to drilling holes for hanging
things on new walls; even though afterward it’s decided that’s not
where something should go.
Home is where the heart is, they say. And that must include a worn-
out body and a deteriorating brain. Too, I’m missing old comforts
like a pair of discarded worn-out shoes and a tattered chore jacket
However with the many extra steps this move has created, it won’t
take long to make replacements show the same signs of wear.
It’s a good thing we didn’t have to move across country in one
trip. Postage stamp-size kitchen towels filled in for the missing bath
towels the first night. I realized afterward I could have used my hair
dryer.
Seems like the furniture just keeps moving and moving, with a
little help. And yes, our big freezer fit in the small utility room as
planned, but there wasn’t room to open the door. It and the heavy
contents have made three pit stops. The second stop in our living
room wasn’t exactly the planned focus of the decor I had in mind.
Besides it didn’t produce a clear picture of world events like the televi
sion that was supposed to sit in that spot.
No one knows for sure what lurks behind the closet or cupboard
doors now. It takes pure luck to find the cereal or the right utensil.
And since there was nowhere to hang anything, thank heavens for
hollow wall fasteners. Stick-on hooks just don't hand in there even
with a little help from super glue.
My largest conversation piece needs a new location with plenty
of room. I am the keeper of my father’s prize trophy sail fish that
hangs on a wall. Clever suggestions have been offered such as suspen
ding it above the water in the Willow Creek Lake as a roadside
attraction.
I haven’t given much thought to any new furnishings since I possess
some authentic early American pieces; for instance an old trunk that
looks like it came over on the Mayflower. Then there’s my grand
mother’s rocker that served four generations. And what could be more
decorative than her old velvet seated sidesaddle. There’s also a few
more old relics like the butter chum. Why give up serviceable items
when rustic decor is back in style? Never mind that they are no longer
useful.
For now I’m busy trying to mastermind some new things like a
bathroom fan that has a mind of its own and a self-filling, while not
in use, toilet bowl tank. And I still haven’t got all the required light
bulbs screwed into overhead lights since I get motion sickness from
swaying around on a six foot ladder. Too, I am still leary of a jac-
cuzi that boils like a witch’s cauldron.
Please don’t ask me for the recipe for moving. If you’ve resided
in the same house for more than 10 years. I’d advise against any
rash decisions. Just let your heirs figure out what to do with your
worldly goods after your demise. It hurts too much to view what
they can dispose of in a second without blinking an eyelash.
