Church in the Park

Schyler and Kaki (and Kaki's little sister Kirbi) got to ride on Papa's ferris wheel at Trinity Lutheran's "church in the park" on Father's Day. The girls all ended up wet from water balloon games, Papa gave lots of rides on the "wheel" and Troy did his part by cooking the burgers and hotdogs. What a fun day!

Fred's Diet....!

Hi all - This is me 34 pounds less from 16 weeks ago - And I feel great.

The quilt on the chair arm was given to me by the Bloomington Jefferson Boys Swim & Dive Team a few years ago for volentering & helping setup, with several other parents, swim meets and time on lane 6. I've been doing this since 1991 & 1993 on the Girls team.

My diet is around 65 pecent vegetarian, the rest is low fat and higher portein, I want to get under 200 pounds - hope I can make it.

I'm going to the farm for the 4th, can't wait to get there, hope t0 be there on Saturday June 27th.

Herb's Airplane

1977 SkyHawk II 172 XP
Hilbert bought this plane new in 1977. TT log shows we
put a little over 1000 hrs. on it. It was traded back in in 1979 for a new 182 RG. Plane was purchased by Tom Whitehurst
and stayed in Dalhart until about 1984. It was sold at a Regan
& Brown Auction at MIller field and purchased by a man from Guymon and kept at the airport at Texhoma. Brady Meyer purchased this plane on Feb. 5, 2009 with only 2350 TT hrs. on the airframe and a new engine installed at 2000
TT hrs. for $35,000.00. The plane had .09 tenths of a hr. on it since 2006, when it was annualed at Boise City and flown back to Texhoma and hangered again. Thanks to Shane remembering this plane and the story that goes with
it and Sheridan knowing it was at the airport, Brady looked the guy up and bought it much cheaper and less than half the hrs. than anything else he had looked at. Jack Pratt (the owner) is 84, the same age as Ray Mathis, and he was
handling this plane about like Ray in the old backhoe. So it is the end of an era for Jack and we no longer let Ray run the backhoe, either! The picture of the plane is at the Texhoma airport. Brady's Dad was about to head to Guymon airport for a annual. Tim flew it to Amarillo last week and it is now at home at Tradewind Airport. Brady is doing ground school and flying ever morning, and hopes to solo in a couple weeks.
I was in the plane a few days ago. Looks and smells the very same.Paint and interior are original as well as all the instrument panel.

About the Blog

Unlike Twitter - we can blog short OR long-winded posts. Posts with pictures or without. You will see in the next several posts I will include several with pictures. I think pictures will be easy to add. I will try some and report back.

Oh, I almost forgot - we don't always have to start a new post. Just click on someone's post and you can post a comment to it. Like if I put up a picture of myself - ya'll can say how good looking, prestigious or something similar to that!

Beginning of the Schramm Family Blog

I am going to post several short blogs, the next several days, to get this blog kicked off. I will then begin inviting all of you to not only view but also participate. I am excited about this blog! I hope you are too.
