| Comments: | Hello fellow Americans and North Dakotans,
I found this site really intriguing, and I LOVE visiting Ray. Such a pleasant place, so nice. It has held many memories and firsts for me. You all are such warm and heart warming people. You bring sunshine to my soul on the darkest days. God bless all your souls. I'm proud to be an AMERICAN! Peace out girl scout. |

| Comments: | I really enjoyed viewing your home page and especially the aerial photos of your town. My father grew up on the Holte farm. His name, Anfin(Art)Holte. He passed away Jan 10, 2004 in Vista, San Diego Co, CA. He loved Ray, the farm and his brothers, Ole, Nels, Sven and Carl, and his sister, Borghild. They are all gone now and miss them all. After my grandmother, Bergit Holte left the farm, she lived in a small house in Ray. I am hoping to make a visit to your town and visit relatives next year.

Your town looks so nice an peacful and is the total opposite of our hectic helter-skelter NJ/NYC lifestyle... don't ever change! Thank you! Nancy Robson Owner Hyviz Inc. |

| Comments: | I lived and worked out of Ray in 1953 1954. It was a great experience I met many people there that I have thought about often.Especially the Delaneys. They had a restaurant on main street at the time. There beautiful daughters worked there. Love to hear from any one from Ray that remembers them. |

Hi. My name is Kelly and I am currently looking for a new place to relocate with my three year old daughter and our dog. Your town has made it on our list of a possible place to move.

Does your town have a family clinic? 4. Does your town have a family dentist? 5. Where and how far away is the nearest dance studio? (for children) 6. Does your town have a soccer league and if so what age do the start at? 7. Does your town have a veterinary clinic? 8. Is your town pet friendly? 9. Where is the nearest dog park? 10. Does your town have a movie theatre? 11. Does your town have a library? 12. What does your town offer as far as recreation? 13. What businesses are in town? 14. Does your town have a gas station? 15.

| Comments: | I was just wondering where Ray got its name. Maybe it was named after one of my relatives. Does anyone know. I remember going through there in about 1971 and my car broke down. A nearby farmer helped me out by getting me a rocker arm for my engine from an old car in his woods. It worked for several thousand more miles. |

| Comments: | Originally from Elgin, I've been traveling thru ND on the internet and see that a lot of the little towns' guest books need livening up. So added to all the other qualities of ND I give you the truth. Am writing a book called "What Is Truth?" Putting on my page as I write. Free. Controversial. You probably won't like it but you can't change it. |

| Comments: | A nice weekend for the Annual Grain Palace Days...The parade got off to a great start with the fire engines screaming down mainstreet 3 minutes arealy to attack a fire...good job guys! Lots of people lined the parade route, great roast pork sandwiches, beans & potato salad at the Grain Palace, and the memorable "kiddie rides" by the Ray Lions. Of course the rodeo on Saturday and Sunday is always fun. A couple of good bands for street dances both Friday and Saturday night, mud volleyball Saturday afternoon, a pancake breakfast at the golf course on Sunday morning, inter-demoninational church service in the Grain palace also on Sunday morning.....A GREAT time was had by everyone, including and especially those that could make it back for the class of '96 - 10 year reunion.
Good job to all who helped make it happen...it's a lot of hard work by a few...and we could use more volunteers next year. Proud to be a Ray resident - Bernie Arcand |

| Comments: | I was born and raised in Germany and came here to the US about 12 years ago.
Now married for 11 years with 4 beautiful boy in the age of 4 to 9 with my wife expecting. More then ever it becomes clear to me, how important the value I have received as a child are. Unfortunately these values are lost here in New York. The schools have bars on there windows, you cannot let the children play outside or explore and this is just the beginning. I am a professional in the Hospitality Industry and make good money, but I am afraid for my children and I do not want to bring them up in a place like this. I am thinking of opening my own restaurant and looking for the right location. But my main concern are my children in a place where I can raise them without fear and worries. North Dakota always appealed to me, so I would like some more information, in regards of Housing, Schools, Hospitals, Restaurants, etc. I am looking forward to you responds, Best Regards, Gerd A.

It is Jan. 13th and I was wondering if all of you had turned into ice cubes yet?? Just noticed a weather wind chill warning for 55 below wind chill there. B-r-r-r-r I shouldn't be too surprised tho as I remember many a year we had blizzards on my dads birthday, which was Jan. 15th. It's chilly here in Texas this evening, but our chilly is 29 degrees. Take care one and all, stay warm and well. Happy New Year!!!! Linda (Davidson)Wooters |

There are some Adams in Ray (I think), not sure that they would be related, you might try getting ahold of Louise Dokken, her email address is listed below, as she was selling the book on Ray. Not sure if she can help or not, but it's worth a shot. www.nccray.com is another local site for the town of Ray. One never knows who you may be able to find that may know something. Good luck with your search!! |
