Today while filling up the Jeep at a gas station I noticed a lady having a problem with the gas pump. I offfered to help and after the transfaction was completed she thanked me and explained that her husband was in the car, but was suffering dementia and had been at the Drs office. She went on to explain that they lived in a retirement home in Pipestone. When I told her that I grew up in Hardwick she said that they had farmed three miles West and a little South of Hardwick. When I asked their name she said Howard Aanenson. I just can't remember that farm place. Bob or Buzz do you remember them. I just remember the Aanensons that lived South of Hardwick off of the road to the Blue Mound State Park.

Name is familiar but would not know where they lived......little brothers probably know.
Small world right? #3
In checking the Hardwick History book the only Aanenson listed was Orville and Rose Mary. The last placed they lived on was northwest of Hardwick. They were 6 kid in the family starting with Gloria (year older than me) Joyce (year younger and married to Sam Hansen, Carol, Randy, Alan and Joan. Best bet is to ask the unoffical Hardwick Historian Wes P. Getting ready to do a red eye to WI tonight with 4 other drivers. BAck by noon tomorrow. Don't like them but can't have all the good ones
