Amidst balloons, cake and camera flashes, 200 friends, family and relatives of Annie Goulet celebrated her birthday on April 1, at the High Prairie Legion. A collage of photos adorning a wall showed Goulet and her family as they were. For the last 100 years Goulet has seen a lot of changes in society, such as transportation by a dogteam or a team of horses becoming transportation by cars and planes. She'd also lived through two world wars and numerous changes in technology.
