These &#8220;relatives&#8221; have given me trouble over the years because I opened our &#8220;Integrating the Internet for Meaningful Learning&#8221; book with a story that included them and I described them &#8220;only&#8221; as relatives. The story described the role of the Internet in helping the community of Grand Forks deal with flood of 1997. This flood required the unplanned evacuation of nearly the entire population of Grand Forks and East Grand Forks and the Internet became a way for the community and acquaintances to reconnect in the aftermath. We drove to our relatives (Scott and Denise Ellingson) in Hinkley, MN and spent several weeks there before returning to Grand Forks.<\/p>\n<p>So &#8211; the unnamed relatives are now named. The younger generations are shown in the following pictures.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/studytools.psych.und.nodak.edu\/wordpress\/wp-content\/bigole.jpg\" alt=\"Big Ole With Relatives\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Big Ole Days in Alexandria, MN<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/studytools.psych.und.nodak.edu\/wordpress\/wp-content\/boatparade.jpg\" alt=\"Boat Parade\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Our Family&#8217;s Entry in the lake Boat Parade<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/studytools.psych.und.nodak.edu\/wordpress\/wp-content\/marksparkler2.jpg\" alt=\"Mark with sparkler\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Mark celebrating the 4th<\/h4>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p id=\"pvc_stats_297\" class=\"pvc_stats all  \" data-element-id=\"297\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading\" src=\"https:\/\/learningaloud.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/page-views-count\/ajax-loader-2x.gif\" border=0 \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We spend some time in the summer with relatives in a rented place in Alexandria, MN.
