ROBERT!! What have you done???

Now there is a horrible squeaking rattling sound emenating from under the dashboard of my truck.

Robert Cowing (1965)

BERNARD . . . . O O O P P S !

Dan Ree (Ree) (1964)

Robert..NO.........No more Squeaks  Please..........We all enjoy are past......Thank You...and Don's Ford thanks you.....from them there squeaks  LOL!

Robert Cowing (1965)

Dan, that's so unfortunate because there is a guy on this web site who carries with him a bag of "rumors".  You know, the kind that say "kick me" pined to the back of your shirt. Well, I got one and it was about Tim Tucker before he "went out of business" (T.T.). Yes, he said it.

It seems that Tim had a francise of small cafes, "One-Potato - Two Potato" on the the Sonoma coast in which a group of gay ladies who professionally entertained connected to the cafes, even the cafe from Disneyland. Word spread far-and-wide about the entertainment and got back to a group called "The Flying Cadenzas." This group of lads got excited about being cheered up by the gay laides in Tim's comedy cafe. Unfortunately, the lads were sorely mistaken about what "gay" meant to the "Sweet Yammys".

Well, as boys will boys sometimes and one thing led to another, a fight or a tussel resulted with the wings plucked from most of the Flying Cadenzas. It was ugly. Very ugly.

Now Dan, there is more to this rumor but I know the guys at Ford can be a little testy, being impatient with too much yammering. If you want to hear "the-rest-of-the story" ask Vern Larson.  You can't ask Tim because he is being pursued by a lawyer representing a group of diminutive Russian ice skaters called the "Russ'etts".

See yah nexrt year if you'r lucky.

Bill Means (1961)

Robert,

Looks like you're taking off from your mom's "Woodland Daily Democrat" column: "What's New Pussycat" on what's happening around Yolo County.

You're right that Dan should contact Vern Larsen for the gory details as he has always been the GO TO guy for such information.

It's Winter so for flyimg safety: "fly low and slow and throttle back around the corners.

Inge Probst (Nattress) Dec. 23rd, 1949 - Dec. 2nd, 2019. Class of 1968. Inge passed away after a 5 year battle with cancer. She was the mother of our 3 sons and my partner and wife for 32 years. Her husband Kevin was by her side in the early morning hours of December 2nd when she passed. God bless you Inge, rest in peace.

Barbara Long (Frey) (1968)

I am so sorry to hear this news.  Inge was a classmate and friend and I always enjoyed seeing her at our class reunions over the years! She always look great and had a smile for everyone.   #Class of '68.  
Barbara Long Frey. 

Jean Duncan (Miller) (1968)

How sad I am to read of Inge's passing!  We were good friends since 3rd grade.  She was so beautiful inside and out.  Rest In Peace my friend.

Vern Larson (1960)

Our sincere condolences go out to the family and friends of Inge Probst Nattress who recently passed away. This is Inge's WHS Junior class photo of 1967 as her Senior photo was not found. 

                                                     RIP INGE

Paul Lieberum (1968)

So sorry to hear of Inge's passing. I never got to know her very well but always thought of her as a very sweet person. We may even be related...my grandmother on my father's side was a Probst and my family moved from the East so my father could work for his uncle Sigmund Probst in Woodland

Cynthia Bourn (Clark) (1968)

Tim, thank you so much for letting us know about the Inge's passing. Like Jean, we were friends in grammar school and lived very close on Elm Street. Interestingly enough, Inge was in my thoughts a couple of days ago after one of your great posts! You usually give me a chuckle. This time your post was thoughtful and kind and I'm remembering a girl/woman who was lovely inside and out. Like Barb, I remember her beautiful smile that made a person feel welcome. My thoughts are with you and her 3 sons.

Walter J. "Wally" Summ (1967)

Inge was always smiling and enjoying her surroundings.  Here she is at the Yolo Flyers Club having a wonderful time at her 40th class reunion.  May you rest in peace, Inge.  God Bless You.

Don Murdoch (1962)

Uh-oh.  The squeak in the dash of my 57 Ford is back.

Monte McCray (1966)

maybe don should junk that ford or soak it in wd40

Robert Cowing (1965)

Monte - If Don would get out there and market some of Bernard's dehydrated water he could find the funds to make the repairs to his "heap." PS -  don't tell Don but I did slip one of those microchips withe sound affects tthat readily attach to anything metal under a truck's dashboard. If Don should ask about it, just say you saw me put it in his truck after Don complained to me about Craig Mayfield at Wild Wings Golf Coourse.

Dan - $19.95 ? ?  !!

Bill - Yep, Vern is the man. His wife keeps him in shape and fashionable (touring bike and riding outfit) and the latest costumes for all their favorite holidays. Very snazzy!

I am ashamed to say I never read any of my mother's columns but Ken Leake and Nell Leake enjoyed them and always encouraged my mother to do more in the Democrat.

As far as the zig-zag advice, I have had plenty of experience flying through the flack batteries on the web site, so not to worry. Thanks for the flying advice . . . and I do wear ear plus.

Donald Urain (1964)

OH NO NOT THE SQEEK AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Monte McCray (1966)

I will admit that most of the time that the squeak was extremely anoying even to the point of agravation it did get responses be it positive or negative.

David Hughes (1967)

Is Woodland having a Christmas Parade this year?  I remember years ago, when Buzzy Evicci lived next door to us, that our Dads made a large TV out of wood, Nails, cardboard and small caster wheels so we could propel the contraption in the parade.  I believe our Moms painted the thing to look like a TV. Then Orv, Buzzy and I got inside and moved the thing around on the sidewalk and it worked great.  However, the day of the Parade, we launched our moving TV with the three greatest comentators inside and all was good, until we found out the caster wheels were too small for the asphalt on Main Street.  We kept tipping over and every time we did the board/nails on the back would hit our heads.  Turned out Main street is 30 miles long, or so it seemed.  After my family (Linda and our 6 kids) moved back to Woodland in 1981, I recall taking them to Main Street to see the wonderful Woodland Christmas parade. This year, Linda and I were lucky enough to be on the front row of the sidewalk for the Macys Thanksgiving Parade here in New York City.  It was something to behold.  Yesterday, we were with friends from Philadelphia and we walked along 5th Avenue taking in all the sights and sounds of Christmas.  New York knows how to do Christmas right. Wishing all Woodland 60s graduates a wonderful Christmas. 

Robert Cowing (1965)

David - the Woodland Christmas Parade was today.  I did not go into town to watch because Main Street has been under repair as a cooperative project with CalTrans and Woodland's street maintence.  I don't think Main street will be finished until sometime in 2020.  Getting in and around town can be difficult and sometimes dangerous, often not knowing which lane to drive on.

Next, will be Gibson Road or sections of it. Thanks for the Christmas good tidings to one and all. 

Robert Cowing (1965)

To help out potential squeakers who do not want to "squeak", would DON MURDOCH, DON URAIN, MONTE    MCCRAY and DAN REE, please give us your definition of what is a "squeak" to/for you. Copy and paste is fine when you fine one etc. Please keep the following advice/rule in mind:

Monte McCray (1966)

Theresa Eve (1964)

Merry Christmas to All!  It is so fast this year, after Thanksgiving.  Hardly time to do all my projects.  Enjoy each day!  We did get some rain!   Count all your blessings!  Good health is always first!!!

When I was 6 years old, a cow broke loose on my Grandpa's farm on the River Road and chased me across a field. It was udderly terrifying.
