you are the arrows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth-Gibran: part two
These childreen came from the bows of Donna Lee Entenman Rye and Glenn E. Rye
Randy Lee Rye was born on June 14th, l957 in Wortthington,Minnesota. In l958 the family moved to Riverside, California. While living on Cass Street Randy took art lessons from our neighbor,Phyllis Pope.He played Little League baseball at the La Sierra park and enjoyed going to Hogies, a private animal zoo. In later years when he visited Riverside, the places he checked out were Hoagies, the LaPoloma and the home on Gramercy place
he also took guitar lessons in Arlington and sang in the choir at Hope Lutheran Church.
We had a goat named, Gus, and Randy was able to irritate Gus enough that he would rear up on his rear legs and spar with Randy as if they were boxing. We had four ewes and a buck and buck was prone to attack if you took your eyes off him. He was one mean buck. One day I looked out the bay window and there was Randy staring down the buck and holding a branch against his nose and staring him down eye to eye.I hurried out and together we escaped the wrath of the buck sheep. The buck caught me off gaurd once or twice in the corral and dealt me a couple of blows that I did not soon forget.
During the summer in l965 and a few years thereafter we pulled 29' Terry camper from California to Minneasota , then up to Canada, across Canada to British Columbia, then down the coast to Riverside
, Califonia.. He enjoyed traveling then and is probably the most traveled family member. As of March of 2005 ,he has logged over 500,000 air miles for business and pleasure.
On one of the trips to Minnesota as we were pulling out of Hills I spottedd a 3l Model A Ford five window coupe with a rumble seat at Orv's station.I paid $250 for it and stored it Grandma Rye's garage. In 1970 we towed it to Loveland, Colorado. Randy and I took a mechanics course at the community college where He and his car were the center of attention. We bought a reconditioned running gear at the Antique Auto House and Randy transferred the car piece by piece to the new running gear.He has renewed the car twice all on his own accord. He will never be as great as my nephew,Art Ehde's father, but he does us all rght proud. He still has the 31 Ford Model A.It is a symbol of his patience and skill.
