more grand rapids life 3: grand river 750 plymouth snowman grand rapids raft race raft race garage carnival the heynen family butterball. wlav raft race griswold



as clear as I can make it...A BIG MEAL at holiday time at grandpa's house..always an interesting event. Imagine getting served a   meal personally by the meat & butter master himself. My late grandpa loved tinkering with the creating & cooking of butter & meat to make it taste & look exceptional. He made his fortune with a simple butter invention "back in the day".Unfortunately, family relations eroded over time.



 linda mom helped me shovel the driveway during this storm, but usually I was the one assigned to shovel the driveways









 fun time carnival in the garage !



 we built a snowman !!!



 the annual WLAV RAFT RACE WAS A BLAST ! but  they discontinued it after a while





 the heynen boys were good friends of ours. Greg was my age and a classmate at school and also church. Here they are on the cover of a CRC publication in 1978 when their dad, Jim, worked for the CRC.
