He remembered this?

This about our son Todd. He was defensive end at Mankato State University. It being a division two football school and they had a playoff system. Mankato won the right to play in the playoffs. As you can imagine everyone in our family was ecstatic.

The game was to be played in Fargo ND the week after thanksgiving. That was no problem for us because we had been flying up that way to see Todd games. I orders tickets to fly to Minneapolis and we would drive the rest of the way. Then I made Hotel reservation in Fargo at the Radisson
.
The day of the flight came and we were off. It is not that bad of a drive to Fargo from Minneapolis, just long enough to get relaxed.
k.
We found the Radisson and went to check in. If you have ever been in that part of our country you know the people are very nice and the front deck gal was as nice as she could be. When she found out that we were from Ft. Lauderdale she took a step back and said “why would you be here this time of the year.”

We told her that we were here because of the playoff game between Mankato and North Dakota State tomorrow and son was playing. She told us that it was going to be about 12 degrees and 25 MPH wind tomorrow and even the locals won’t go to a game in that kind of weather. That wasn’t going to stop us.

Up we go to the room and wait for Todd to call because he wanted to come over and visit. Sure enough the phone rang and it was Todd. He said he would be right over.
There was Todd’s normal pound on the door and I let him in. I guess when you six foot four and all conference defensive end you can pound on the door. The first thing he did was to find the local telephone book and open it and started looking through it. He found what he was looking for and said “ Great Grandpa Lindemann was sure busy when he was here.”

Years earlier I had told Skip and Todd about my grandpa had come up to North Dakota to work in the wheat fields in the summer and log in Minnesota in the winter.

How he remember this I have no idea, but he did. Then Todd said “ There is almost one whole page of Lindemann’s in the phone book.” I really think he was proud of his Great Grandpa.

By the way Mankato State that very cold Saturday won, so it was worth frizzing our you know what’s off.

Happiness with health and wealth to you
