Watch the sky turn white at Delta Snow Goose Festival DELTA — It’s a sight you have to see to believe: Thousands of geese lifting off Gunnison Bend Reservoir amid honks and the beating of wings. If you want to see the incredible spectacle yourself, head to the annual Delta Snow Goose Festival this weekend. The festival, hosted by the Delta Chamber of Commerce, will be held Feb. 26-27 at Gunnison Bend Reservoir, west of Delta. Part of the festival includes a free snow goose viewing event hosted by the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources. As many as 20,000 geese — mostly snow geese — have been at the reservoir during past festivals. Except for the black tips on their wings, snow geese are completely white. DWR biologists will be available to provide information about the birds and help you find them. The areas where you’ll see the geese vary according to the time of the day. If you arrive in Delta early in the morning, you can watch the geese feeding in fields that surround the reservoir. Then, between 9 a.m. and 10:30 a.m., the geese take off and fly back to the reservoir. “It’s an exciting time to be there,” says

What does financial health look like at each age?
Financial health by the decades BY AMANDA CHRISTENSEN
USU Extension associate professor
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, combined with a review of research and consultation with leading experts, found that financial well-being includes the following four elements: Having control over day-today, month-to-month finances. Having the capacity to absorb a financial shock. Being on track to meet your financial goals. Having the financial freedom to make the choices that allow you to enjoy life. Another way to think about it is that financial well-being is the feeling of having financial security and financial freedom of choice, both in
the present and when considering the future. So – what does financial health look like at each age? Timing will vary from person to person, but below are suggested financial milestones to achieve at each decade of life. This is not an all-inclusive list, but provides a foundation of things to consider. Milestones achieved at earlier ages, such as a good credit score and an adequate emergency fund, should continue into the following years. Age 10: Learn to add and subtract, sell a service or good for money (i.e. lemonade, car washing, cookies, babysitting, cleaning, etc.). Save up for something you really want, use money to buy a gift for someone or
donate to a charity. Age 10-20: Work at a job for money, have checking/savings accounts, establish a Roth IRA, decide the type of lifestyle you’d like to live, what salary you’ll need for that lifestyle, and what career/job you’ll need to support that. Build credit with a credit card that has a low borrowing limit and use it regularly, but pay it off monthly. Age 20: Learn to invest, budget, track income and expenses, regularly contribute to a Roth IRA and build credit. Make on-time debt payments, stay below 30% of your allotted credit amount on credit Please see FINANCES, Page A2

Steven Ralph Poulson
Jon Meyers Durrant
1944 – 2022
Steven Ralph Poulson, age 77, of Moroni passed away peacefully surrounded by loved ones on February 15, 2022. Steve was born September 10, 1944, the first child of Junior Poulson and Afton Livingston Poulson. Steve grew up in Mt. Pleasant and as a teenager, he excelled in track and football at North Sanpete High School. Steve married the love of his life, Marilyn Christensen, on February 28, 1964, and was later sealed in the Manti Temple on June 6, 1986. They made their home in Moroni where they raised 3 sons: Carl, Kevin, and Brad. Steve was a master gardener and enjoyed reading and had a talent for oil painting. He had a love for the outdoors and adventures with his family, that he instilled into his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. He loved hunting and fishing and enjoyed many trips to Lake Powell and the desert. Some of our most cherished memories are of the time spent at Birdseye with family and lifelong friends. Steve was a mechanic by trade and owned his own business, Big Pine Conoco, where he made many good friends. He then went on to work at the Moroni Processing plant until his retirement. Steve loved his country and served in the National Guard for 24 years. He was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and truly exemplified the Christ-like attribute of service. He

would not let an opportunity to serve another pass him by. To know Steve was to love him and he will be greatly missed by his family and friends. We will especially miss his big heart and his infectious laugh. Steve is survived by his loving wife, whom he affectionately referred to as “his bride” of 58 years. Sons Carl (Diane) Poulson, American Fork, UT; Kevin (Rita) Poulson, Moroni, UT; Brad (Carol) Poulson, St. George, UT and brother Ted Poulson. 13 grandchildren and 21 great-grandchildren. Preceded in death by his parents Junior and Afton, brother Alan, sister Peggy, and granddaughter Jessica. Funeral Services were held Monday, February 21, 2022, at 11:00 am in the Moroni Stake Center. Viewings Sunday, February 20, 2022, from 6:00-7:00 pm and Monday 9:30-10:30 am prior to the services, both at the Moroni Stake Center. Interment in the Moroni City Cemetery. Online condolences at rasmussenmortuary.com.
Jon Meyers Durrant, age 74, passed away on February 15, 2022, with family and friends by his side. Jon was born on July 25, 1947, in Salt Lake City, Utah to the late Warren and Janice (Meyers) Durrant. He was the third of seven children. In his early twenties, he started driving truck. He loved being on the road and seeing the sights. It was his happy place. In 1993, Jon fell off a trailer and broke his neck. He was in a halo for three months, then a collar for another three months, but that didn’t keep him down. He recovered and went back to driving. He was a hard worker and very mechanically skilled. He would buy cars, trucks, and equipment, fix them up, and then sell them for a profit. He loved to ‘wheel and deal’ and enjoyed making extra money that way. He loved a good joke and was a teaser like his dad. He was an avid outdoorsman. He was always happy and a fiercely loyal friend to many. He had a good heart and was always willing to help others. Jon is survived by his siblings: Tom (Sherry) Durrant, Linda Durrant, Steven Durrant, David
(Fely) Durrant, and Michael (Maralyn) Durrant, and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his sister, Paula McKissick. Funeral services will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, February 26, 2022, at the LDS Church located at 92 South 200 West, in Wales, Utah. A viewing will be held from 12:00-12:45 p.m. prior to the services at the church. Interment at Wales Cemetery. Online condolences and Live Zoom Link at rasmussenmortuary.com in his obituary. Jon suffered from COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) as a result of 50+ years of smoking. Jon encouraged people to quit smoking so they can live longer, healthier lives.

Birds From A1
DWR Regional Outreach Manager Phil Tuttle. “All those thousands of geese in flight make for incredible photos. Watching and hearing the geese take off can take your breath away.” Tuttle says watching the geese is a fun activity for the whole family. “We encourage you to come out and see these amazing birds in flight,” he says. After landing on the reservoir, the geese usually spend the next few hours there. Then, sometime between 4-6 p.m., the birds take off again and fly back to the fields. DWR biologists will watch which fields the geese fly to. If
you arrive after the geese have left the reservoir, the biologists will direct you to the fields where the geese are feeding. Tuttle provides the following tips and reminders: Try to bring your own binoculars or a spotting scope to view the geese. If you get too close to the birds, you could scare them away. Please respect private property. “Trespassing to view the geese is not legal,” he says. For your safety, if you pull off the road to view the geese, pull as far off the road as you can. Be prepared for cold, wet weather by dressing in layers that will help you stay warm and dry.

Ford adds a new truck to the line with the 2022 Maverick
T
here is a new truck in town from Ford that has pretty much written the book on what a truck should be, and it’s called the Maverick. This new truck slides into an area of the market that has, for the most part, been untouched — that of a compact truck. We can rememCRAIG & DEANNE ber small CONOVER trucks such as the Datsun 620 that were around in the late ’80s. Craig even used one of them back in the day to haul sound equipment. Then, for a time, there was the Subaru Brat. It was definitely a compact truck. Neither of these were capable of doing much more that hauling two people and stuff around, as was the case for most normal trucks. Now, with crew cabs, most fullsized trucks can haul up to six adults and a whole lot of their stuff along with them. So, it seems we have gone back to the past to come up with a truck that is smaller and easier to travel around in while getting fantastic gas mileage. Along with Ford, Hyundai has also come out with a compact truck this
year in the Santa Cruz that looks and hauls like a small truck but drives more like a similarly sized SUV. Much of the difference
between the two approaches to a compact truck comes along the lines of cost and mpg, where Ford really wins hands down on both points.
As tested, the new Maverick comes standard with a hybrid propulsion system that allows the truck to get up to 40 mpg. We managed a very
nice 36.4 mpg for a week in early January that brought both a huge amount of snow to the valley and the most frigid temperatures to date,
which may have added to the somewhat lower numbers we experienced. Please see MAVERICK, Page A6

“The Maverick product proposition is like nothing else out there. It’s a great-looking truck featuring four doors with room for five adults, a standard full-hybrid engine with city fuel economy that beats a Honda Civic, plenty of towing and hauling for weekend trips or do-it-yourself projects, and it starts under $20,000,” said Todd Eckert, Ford truck group marketing manager. “Maverick challenges the status quo and the stereotypes of what a pickup truck can be. We believe it will be compelling to a lot of people who never before considered a truck.” We found all of this to be completely true. Having the small truck for a week gave us the opportunity to get out and about in what really performed more like a midsized SUV than a truck. With the front-wheel drive version

We were able to load up a large snow blower and transport it to our house from Craig’s sister’s place, all with relative ease since the truck sits so much lower than a normal full-sized truck or even one of the mid-sized of-

ferings. This fact alone would make the new Maverick a great choice for us age-advanced folks as getting stuff in and out of the bed was so much easier. For those who want more out of the smaller truck than gas mileage, Ford has found a way to add a 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine to the Maverick through which the horsepower increases from 191 horsepower to 250 ponies and the torque goes from a mere 155 foot-pounds to a whopping 277 foot-pounds. This gives the pickup the ability to tow up to 4,000 pounds, so something in the neighborhood of a 21-foot boat. Inside, the new Maverick is nice but very truck-like, with hard surfaces that will be easy to keep clean and take years of abuse, allowing the owners to go many places they may never have considered in the past. A standard 8-inch touch screen comes with all of the trim levels, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto allow users to keep the same look and feel as their personal phone experience. Each level

also comes with the Ford Pass system with Wi-Fi enough for up to 10 individual devices. On the safety side, our test ride came with blind spot monitoring and forward collision prevention. About the only complaint we had was that the small truck at the XLT trim level still required a key to be inserted into the console to get it started. Having to find a key every time we got in was certainly a first-world problem; however, it seems like it would be easy nowadays to make any vehicle have a push-button start as long as the key is in the vehicle. The most brilliant addition was that of a FITS (Ford Integrated Tether System) slot in the back. This is a system of seven slots in the rear of the Maverick that will hold things like cup holders or places for garbage bags or tethering grocery bags. Most of them look exactly like a place for an after-market addition from the dealer. However, Ford has gone one step further and put all the specs online so owners can actually 3D print their own accessories for the back for the pickup. This is kind of a cool idea and something owners should embrace. Watch for more to come in other models with easy user-definable additions. The new Maverick is a fine smaller truck that would make a great addition to any family’s auto lineup, even those who didn’t know they needed a truck.
