RE: VardoGram
at 6/23/2009

Calling all strong Vardo’s…I am once again in need of some hired muscles.  I have a very generous friend of mine who is giving me some new to me living room furniture and I need some help and possibly an extra truck to acquire said furniture tomorrow evening and transport it to my garage for the time being.  Any extra Vardo’s willing to help out tomorrow evening after the “Vardo Open Water Swimming is the Pits in the Pits” seminar, would be welcome and greatly appreciated.  I will probably also need extra hands then as well next Monday or Tuesday to actually move the furniture into the house after the new floors are laid. 

 

Thanks in advance for your time and consideration.  Oh yeah, BTW, I have a beer full of fridge…er I mean a fridge full of beer that I would be willing to share with any Vardo willing to help out.  J

 

Thanks again!

Sister Peterson

And Now:  Dr. Sister Stacey Roberts

"As many of you may know, I am headed to Austria, the home of Mozart and "The Sound of Music", for a summer internship. While I'm very sad to leave all of the wonderful Vardos behind, I'll think of you each time I run with the Alps in the distance or perhaps when I enjoy a bike ride along the Danube River. Yeah, it's going to be rough! If you want to follow along on my journey, check out www.stacey34.wordpress.com where I am going to keep a blog of the trip. You can leave comments for me on that site too (I will still have my stacey34@iastate.edu e-mail address).  Following my trip to Austria, I will be moving to Ohio for a job."      (Editor's Note:  Brother Mullins is now accepting offers of casseroles, clean clothing, light housekeeping, and gently used female companions.)

 

"Therefore, Tuesday will be my last Vardo run for a while. I thought it fitting to have a farewell Vardo dinner after our run on Tuesday. May I propose El Azteca for dinner followed by Hickory Park ice cream? I can't leave Ames without a final serving of Hickory Park Cherry Fudge Sundae!"

"Pictures (attached) of the goodies from the State Center Rose Festival 7-mile run. A race that all Vardos should consider for 2010!"
