bership-based non-profit or-
ganization whose mission is

heritage of the Kensington,
Minnesota area.”
To fulfill this mission,
the Society’s funding comes
from grants, donations,
gift shop sales, museum
admissions, and member-
ship dues. Membership runs
from January 1 to December
31 so now is a perfect time
to become a member.
The members will elect
the Board of Directors at
Kensington Area
Heritage Society
seeking membersthe annual meeting in May.
This Board is responsible
for managing the business
affairs of the Society. Current
Directors are: Dean Lofquist,
Marlys Jensen, Melvin Con-
rad, Pryce Score, and Ruth
Johnson.
A number of interesting
events are already scheduled
for 2017, including:

At a special meeting last
Friday morning, the Grant
County Board of Commis-
sioners approved a 2017
levy of $6,636,046, or a 4.8
percent increase over last
year. The majority of the
increase is for two percent
salary increases for elected
and appointed non-union
employees, but there was
also a $59,859 increase in
the GIS/Pictrometry budget,
as it adds an employee, a
$16,396 increase in the Ex-
tension budget because of an
increase to 80 percent of full
time for the 4-H Coordinator,
and a $6,000 increase to the
Sheriff Department to pay
for dispatching.
Chief Deputy Troy Lan-

The plumbing business
is all in the family for the
Greeleys. Sam Greeley start-
ed the business in Hoffman
way back in 1981, and five
years later moved it to Glen-
wood, where his son Justin
took over in 2002. From
2004 until 2012, Sam and his
wife Marsha did missionary
work while Greeley Plumbing
flourished. Justin expanded
into Alexandria and Brooten,
and hiring 12 employees, in-
cluding his younger brother
Jeff. When Sam and Marsha
returned from their mis-
sionary work they reopened
Greeley Plumbing in Hoffman
and now Jeff is set to take
over that business, renaming
it Custom Comfort.
“It’s funny how they
never wanted to do the same
thing as their dad,” said Sam.
“I will be working for
Jeff,” he added. “I special-
ize in plumbing, while he
specializes in heating, air
conditioning and air handling
systems.”
Sam, who is 58, claims
the technical advances in
heating and air conditioning
systems has ramped up so
fast, he cannot keep up.
“I am intimidated by
technology, Jeff is not, and
it is what he does best.”
Marsha, who has been
running the office in Hoff-
man, will stay on for awhile
yet. Jeff and his wife Macy
have three young boys, two
pre-schoolers, Gavin and Ma-
son, and one, Collin, who is a
first grader at West Central
Area South in Kensington.
The young family purchased
a house in Hoffman this past
September.
Sam and Marsha’s daugh-
ter, Janet, teaches 6th grade
science at St. Michael Schools.
With Justin’s Greeley
Plumbing handling the Al-
exandria to Brooten area
and now Custom Comfort
taking care of the territory
west, the Greeley’s cover a lot
of territory. And with three
more boys growing up in the
business, the Greeley family
could be in the plumbing
business for another genera-
tion or two.
“It’s an exciting time,”
said Sam.

Members of the public and fellow law enforcement offi cers got a chance to say “Thank you” to retiring Grant County Sheriff
Dwight Walvante last Friday afternoon in the Elbow Lake Community Building. The Sanford Room was crowded as dozens
and dozens of visitors came by to wish Walvatne well. He is retiring after 22 years at the helm of the Grant County Sheriff’s
Department and over 30 years in law enforcement.

IN WEST CENTRAL MINNESOTA
Lynn Carlson was work-
ing at Malt-O-Meal in North-
field, Minnesota when he
decided to he had to try out
the career he had been think-
ing about... crop dusting.“I got the bug when I
watched the spray planes on
our farm when I was a kid,”
Carlson said.Carlson grew up south of
Wendell on the family farm.
He graduated from Elbow
Lake/Wendell High School
in 1967 and soon joined the
Navy as a hospital corpsman.
Based in San Diego he learned
to fly and got his pilot rat-
ings. But once he was out of
the Navy, Carlson and his
wife, Robin, settled down
in Northfield, both working
for Malt-O-Meal. But he went
back to the family farm often,
had always loved the area...
and flying... and figured out
a way to put them together.“When I told the people
at Malt-O-Meal my plans they
were all for it,” said Carlson.
“In fact, for several years I
would do my crop spraying
in the summer and contin-
ued to work for them in the
winter.”Carlson said agricul-
tural aviation had always
intrigued him.“It takes a special breed
of person to do it. You don’t
break the rules, but feel like
you are.”In 1985, Carlson started
Carlson Ag Aviation on the
family farm ten miles west of
Elbow Lake. He built his own
runway and paved it. There
are hangars and outbuildings
where a worker mixes all the
product right on site. Carlson
never has to leave his plane.
He sprays herbicides, corn
fungicides, insecticides on
soy beans and sugar beets
and more. “We spray when the
farmer does not want to
drive over the crops that are
there,” he said. “Minnesota
has around 150 ag aviators in
the state, working primarily
the western part of the state,
North Dakota, and South
Dakota.”Carlson has just crossed
the 15,000 hour mark pilot-
ing an airplane. He has a
Commercial Pilot’s License,
and is Instrument, Multi-
Engine, and Seaplane rated.Carlson said ag avia-
tion is even more popular
in southern states such as
Texas, Louisiana, and Ar-
kansas where rice is raised.“They even apply fertil-
zer by plane for rice.”Carlson’s main work
plane used to be powered
with a huge, and very loud,
radial engine. But that engine
failed once in 1998, resulting
in a crash, and now he flies
an Air Tractor 502, with a 750
horsepower turbine engine. “It’s just like the engines
on a 737 jet, but smaller and
with a prop.”The plane costs around
$1 million new and the pilot
is protected like the driver in
a race car with a metal cage,
air bags, air conditioning,
and fire protection.He also owns a Cherokee
Lance he flies for recreation
and travel.Ag aviation has changed
a great deal since 1985, not
only are the airplanes more
powerful, comfortable and
safer, but the spraying itself
is more efficient. No longer
does the pilot have to rely on
a flagman on the ground to
show where his next pass will
be. The planes no longer use
foam or colored trailers they
drop for the same purpose.
Carlson’s plane is equipped
with GPS, and his passes are
accurate to within one meter.
He can actually leave a field
and come back the next day
and start spraying exactly
where he left off. He can
also punch into on onboard
computer the exact amount
of product he is applying
per acre.The company celebrated
their 30th anniversary this
past fall, and Carlson an-
nounced he was selling the business to his son, Boone, and Boone’s wife, Charity.“I’m going to semi-
retire,” said Carlson. “I will still be working on the ground and in the office.”
Boone, who does not fly, will be running the business end of things with Charity. Boone, (while the family still lived in Northfield) recalls working as part of the ground crew with his father. The fam-ily moved back when he was ten. He will still work at Barrett Farm Supply and the two business-es, although totally separate, mesh well together because their busy times do not overlap. Carlson Ag Aviation
currently has two pilots:
crop dusting veteran Buzz
Amundson, and 22-year-old
newcomer Andrew Asleson.“Andrew is a local kid
who works for Prairie Air and
told me one day he wanted
to try flying,” said Carl-
son. “He got his license
last year and Buzz and I
have been working with
him, teaching him how
to spray. We are just like
mother hens.”Boone will be the
third generation to work
on the family farm. “We have a lot of pride
in the business and want
to keep it in the family,”
said Boone. “Our custom-
ers will benefit.”Charity and Boone
have three sons so, hope-
fully, the business will
continue into yet another
generation. “That would be grand-
pa’s dream,” said Carlson.

(BPT) - A backyard
should be enjoyed to its
fullest extent. But all too
often, homes lack enticing
outdoor living areas. One
way to give your outdoor
space a retreat is to add a
new deck. A well-designed
deck can extend your living
space, make your yard more
functional and, best of all,
provide a comfortable space
for family and friends to
enjoy the great outdoors.If you’re ready to build
a new deck and turn your
backyard into your favorite
“room” in the house, here
are five must-ask questions
to help you design the per-
fect addition.1. What do you want
your deck to do?A deck can boost the
value of your yard, but only
if it fits the way you live. So,
before tackling a deck proj-
ect, set aside time to think
about how you plan to use
your new space. Whether
you’re designing a multi-
level deck for entertaining
or a small, peaceful getaway,
a little forethought can go a
long way to ensuring your
deck suits your family’s
lifestyle.
How to design the perfect deck for your home
For example, if outdoor
entertaining is what your
deck is all about, an ex-
pansive deck with multiple
level changes, handrails and
furniture can streamline
traffic flow and define areas
for eating, socializing and
relaxing. If a peaceful deck-
escape is more your style, a
free-standing deck tucked
into some foliage in your
backyard with a screening
trellis and a water feature
can create a perfectly restful
retreat.
2. How will you access
your deck?As you evaluate your
deck’s function, keep transi-
tions in mind. The easier your
deck is to access, the more
you’ll get out of it. Decks
positioned near frequently
used openings, such as the
kitchen door, make it simple
to travel from one area to the
other and are perfect for en-
tertaining. Additional path-
way features, like decorative
stones and ground lighting,
can help guests transition
smoothly between your deck
and yard.If you have a raised or
multi-level deck, be sure to
think about stairs and rail-
ings. While these features
make it safe to move between
your house and backyard,
they can also add visual dis-
tinction to your deck. Curved
stairs, decked out walkways,
backlit risers and decorative
glass panels can all showcase
your creativity while guiding
visitors through outdoor liv-
ing spaces.
(StatePoint) When host-
ing neighbors and friends
for spring gatherings, your
thoughts may dwell on ac-
commodating guests. But
how often do you consider
your animal visitors?“During spring, flocks
of birds migrate and are
looking for places to re-
fuel and rest,” says Spen-
cer Schock, Founder of
WindowAlert, makers of
bird-friendly products for
homes. “A few small tweaks
to your yard, is like placing
out a welcome mat.”
Spring tips to attract beautiful birds to your yard
3. Is your deck near
water?If you envision lounging
waterside, now is the time
to think about moisture-
resistant decking. Decks near
pools, hot tubs and lakes
need to withstand frequent
exposure to waves, splashing
and, in some instances, full
water submersion to stay
beautiful for years to come.While there are many
decking materials from
which to select, advanced
products like ChoiceDek
composite decking are a
great choice for decks with
water contact as they protect
against moisture intrusion
all the way to each board’s
core. 4. How do you want your
deck to look?To make sure your new
addition is as big on looks
as it is on function, spend
time dreaming about how
you want your deck to look.
Whether you favor sleek,
clean lines or more adventur-
ous deck patterns, the secret
to a beautiful backyard deck
is to make sure it ties-in with
your home’s architecture.You can select from a
wide array of decking color
combinations that comple-
ment indoor flooring op-
tions, including popular
greys and rich dark browns.
Or, use contrasting colors to
balance your home’s exterior
color scheme. If you love the
look of wood but don’t want
to deal with all the upkeep,
look for modern composites
that mimic the appearance
of traditional wood decking.
Their realistic wood grains
blend beautifully into the
landscape, and complement
many of today’s exterior sid-
ing options.5. Are you designing a
curved deck?If you’re still looking
for a way to set your yard
apart, consider incorporat-
ing curves into your deck
design. Curves can add
architectural interest by
following the contours of
your landscape, encircling
hot tubs and pools, or con-
trasting the straight lines of
your house.Get creative, but don’t
let materials limit your de-
sign. By following manufac-
turer instructions, you can
shape contemporary materi-
als like composite decking
into stunning curves that
will have neighbors com-
menting on your deck for
years to come.
Schock says turning
your home into a refuge
for birds can be fun and
add beauty to your yard.
He offers these tips to keep
feathered travelers safe dur-
ing their migratory journey.• Protect flight: Millions
of birds die annually by strik-
ing glass, making windows a
hazard to birds in flight. Try
applying special decals that
reflect ultraviolet sunlight
to your home’s windows,
particularly those windows
that are highly reflective of
open sky. The decals won’t
affect your view because
they’re virtually invisible to
humans, but will help keep
birds safe. • Bed and Breakfast:
Birdfeeders come in all
shapes, sizes and styles, and
simply adding one to your
yard can help beautify it and
give birds the energy needed
to continue their flight.Remember though, bird
strikes are often a problem
near bird feeders, as feeding
birds are easily frightened
and are apt to take wild,
evasive flight; position feed-
ers closer than three feet or
farther than 30 feet from
windows. If your feeder is
close to the window, birds fly
away from the house. Believe
it or not, the safest type of
feeder is the kind that attach
to the window itself. You can also make your
home’s outdoor spaces more
bird-friendly filling your
garden with the right plants
and flowers for pollinating
bird species.• Watch and record:
Grab a pair of binoculars and
a field guide book and take
note of the types of birds you
see and when. This will help
you become better prepared
for next season. In addition,
consider becoming a “citizen
scientist” by submitting
your observations to The
Audubon Society and Cor-
nell University’s database at
<ebird.org>.“By making a few simple
modifications to your yard
and home, you can assist
birds on their long journey,”
says Schock.
