The Mortensen Owl has landed again

 The MORTENSEN OWL has landed again.  I will keep him for awhile but everyone related to the "Mortensen Girls plus Ted" be aware that the owl does not stay in one place to long.  He could be coming to your house next!!!!!!!!
This owl has really traveled.  He was originally made by Grandpa Forland Mortensen, won a First Place Ribbon at the St. Anthony County Fair and also won a Prime Quality Ribbon at the Madison County  Fair. When Grandpa Forland passed away ownership went to Rosena Palmer, upon her passing it went to Rella Brown.  She did not need to pass but did not want the responsibility of the owl so ownership went to Nina (Rodney Ricks's wife).  At an "Owl" meeting it was decided that the owl would join Mary Anne at her 50 1/2  birthday party.  She kept him until she flew out to the "Mortensen Girls plus  Ted" reunion that was held on September 23- 26, 2010 at Saundra Hughes Little's cabin and it stayed there until Uncle Ted's 70th Birthday Party.  The Owl  next left on his mission to California.  The Mortensen Owl has fulfilled his mission in Oakland California and wants to come home where there are no earth quakes, "occupiers", and Castro districts.  He's been reading my blog (as K'Lyn says) and wants to travel with me for awhile.  So he was mailed to me on April 3, 2012 by Sister K'Lyn Lyman.
