What goes around comes around


These photos from Norway are the courtesy of my sister in law, Lorraine Rye, to whom I mailed the photos on November 19, 1979.
The Shah was in fear of being overthrown by the mulllahs in Iran and my salesman associate had both Ameican and Iranian citizenship. He knew people who wanted to get their money out of Iran before the shah went down.
We flew to Tehran and rented a couple of suites and proceeded to sell them real estate in America.
We did sell a 11 million dollar shopping center in Westminister, Co and a 3 million dollar high rise in Denver. From what I hear it's about time to go back to Iran again and sell America
I am now almost as ancient as the carvings on the stone in Norway,above ,but I just did manage to take a 5ooo mile road trip through the Southwest and the Midwest visiting relatives galore. Those pictures will follow soon.
I flew from Teheran to Denmark and then took a hover craft to Oslo.
About 28 years ago about twenty relatives from Norway and South Dakota came to Loveland, Colorado to visit and we put them up in our motel for about a week.
I visited these American cousins last week. Ineborg Pauson of Harrisburg, South Dakota and Isaac Rye of Luverne, Minnesota. A brother, Knute ,and others are about to visit them again. I hope that they with the help of Palmer Pauson will sign up on the geni family tree.

Your gift for writing keeps this reader interested from start to finish. Great stories, and your recall of details are as if they just happened.
