The Chronicles of John Trammell

Note from John: 9/28/10 Sorry for the very poor quality of the images.  They were scanned from a paper where these photos were printed from our printer, which just made them terrible.  They will improve with better photos in the years to come I hope.  First time printing photos on full pages instead of using real photographs in the record book. My 4-H Story Written 2001 Age: 13 Year in 4-H: 7      I can't believe another year has come and gone.  And it has been a very busy one.  We did a lot of things and saw a lot of things.  Hello, my name is John Trammell.  I am a junior member of the Grand Terrace 4-H Club.  My sister, Ashley, is 10 years old and she is also in 4-H.  My dad, Steve, is the photography leader and my mom is the resource leader for the club.  I have a pet cat named Buster.  This year I set up my own 20-gallon fish tank.  I am learning how to keep it clean and how to keep my fish healthy.  I just finished 7th Grade at Clement Middle School.  This year I was i

My 4-H Story Written 2000 Age: 12 Year in 4-H: 6      This year has gone by very fast.  There were some changes too.  Hi. My name is John Trammell.  I am a junior member of the Grand Terrace 4-H Club.  I have a sister, Ashley, that is also a 4-H member.  My dad, Steve, is the Photography project leader, and my mom is a resource leader that fills in where ever she is needed.  I live in a new house that we moved to in March of 1999, about a year and a half ago.  I went to Clement Middle School this year as a 6th grader.  And that starts out my year.      Back in July of this year, we were struggling a little bit because my Oma had just died and my mom was swamped with things that she had to do.  She wasn't sure what to do with Arroyo Verde 4-H Club.  She talked to George Saunders and then decided that Arroyo Verde 4-H Club will join over to Grand Terrace 4-H Club.  It has helped her out a lot and she feels like the kids didn't get cheated from what they deserve.      In August

Note from John, 9/9/2010 You may notice that this story will not have any photographs posted, and shorter than others.  The below story was written after the death of my grandma, Marget Vlahovitch, on June 16, 1999, in Redlands, CA.  As you will find out below, our lives were very hectic at the time record books should have been done.  This story and this year's record book was never turned in to be judged.  Even though the turn in date was passed, my mom still made me do parts of the record books.  Because of our move to a new house, all the photos were packed and were unable to get to them, which is why none were in the record book.  Today I still don't know were those photos are, and when I find them, I shall post them up.  This will be the first to two times that I didn't turn in a record book for judging.  For me this would be a sad time, not just for my grandma's death, but also for the ending of Arroyo Verde 4-H Club, and me having to move away to a different pl
