Yaahoo!! No I don't mean Yahoo. Saturday, October 21 is the day of the annual fall movement of cattle from the high range country east of Ashton to the lower elevations west of Ashton where they will spend the winter. The herd will pass down the length of main street during the late afternoon and to celebrate the event, that evening there will be a dinner at the community center. Among the festivities will be a table set up honoring local authors where visitors may buy books. Those attending will be Carol Bessey, Battle of the WAC; Jane Daniel, sitting in for Kathy Newcomb, book of Ashton's ancestors, Sunny Bingo, Sing or Cry; and this writer Chan Atchley, Soul of the Land and We, The Shamans. Glade Lyon's book, Ashton, Idaho will also be available. Unfortunately, Glade died of a heart attack will finishing his project and never saw his book in print.
Ya'll come and join us. There is a blue grass band and a popular local singer with his band. We'll have a finger licken', foot stompin' good time.
