Anyone Recognize This?

Well, I could not get it to copy and paste so will do something else and get back to this...There...I got it to transfer over...I should just let this be and see who guesses it but I guess in Alamo it is not hard to guess where the sign could have hung...Ha! Andrew Hagen, Lewis's son purchased it at a sale and has it out in Montana! Pretty cool huh? I must say for as many times as I sat under it waiting for my father, or at the cafe eating one of those wonderful hambergers...well I should have remembered it! Which just dawned on me...Marilyn, can you contact Louise and see if they can send a jpeg of the cafe?? That would be ever so cool...I would like an interior one too...boy...I wonder if I will remember that? I always liked the big booth closest to the door! Ha!

Ralph's Place

Andrew Hagen, Lewis' son, posted a picture of Ralph's bar out on a blog Jane created for the Hagen family (hagenchatter.blogspot.com) and I have reposted it here for the rest of you Alamoites. In addition, Shirley still has a Ralph's Bar key chain she got from her dad. Anyone else have some similar memorabilia they would like to share?

Old Alamo Lutheran Church

Across the street from the school sat the old Lutheran church. At some point it was moved to Williston and now sits just south of the drive-in theater. I don't have many pictures of the interior, but this one taken at Shirley and my wedding gives some flavor. It seems smaller than I remember. I assume all the furnishings, alter, pews, etc., were moved to the new church? I'm sure many of us can remember the many church suppers, etc. While I wasn't big on the lutefisk, the lefse, mashed potatoes, meat balls, and gravy were 'to die for'.

At some point, there were at least two churches in town. I vaguely remember the other one but have no pictures. Anyone out there have any? When the structure was torn down, the basement was covered and, for a while, was used as a youth center (no doubt to keep troubled youth off the street. I don't remember what that looked like. Anyone care to share some memories?

Persons pictured include David Sogard, Loring Johnson, and Steven Holgerson, Shirley's sisters Diane, Marjory, and Barb, and two of my three sisters, Jane, and Gloria.

Eagles Nest

How Many of you have stories of Eagles nest ! I can remember having Appam, or neighborhood picnics there as a 3rd or 4th grader. Maybe it was a field day at school too ?? Does anyone remember where Horse Shoe Bend was at. The fable goes, Paul Bunyan's horse stepped there to make the imprint in the farmland.. smile.
