   What a beautiful morning after our most welcome rain last night. Just as I was headed for Bingo at the Elks, the wind really picked up and the sky was threatning, and by the time we started our games it was really pouring down. I hear we got 1 inch to 1  1/2 inches.
     Aloyce and Dave Berglund provided donuts this morning! We only had around 37 there, I was surprised since quite a few people have come in but weren't at donuts. She had the best assortment and also brought fresh from the oven little round apple filled somethings with a glaze on top. I think the office provides them next Friday and that will be the last Friday coffee and donuts. And of course we will have coffee and donuts at the Mon. morning meetings.
     There are cards up to sign, one to Betty Aderton, having a very difficult time, she's in the hospital with a bad internal infection, still trying to determine where it's coming from, she was given some medication that made her heart act up so she was put in ICU for a couple days, now she's in a regular room. Also a card for Carolyn Thomson, her Father died, and a card to Mary Hennigar for her 75th birthday. Martha Millender is supposed to have surgery today, I believe.  She has a cancerous lump on one breast so she's opted for a mastectomy.
     Irene and John Quail are here now, she has had a surgical procedure done on her foot and is wearing a boot.
     We had a very good dinner at the new "Peckers" bar and cafe, it's located where the El Jalisco restaurant was, you pass home depot on Westgate going North and turn right within a half block. Later after 9:00  it's quite a young folks hangout, Karaoke, dancing etc.Several people have told me that where the Taco Cabana was there by Discount tires, ( Denny's area), there's a Carl Jr's hamburger joint coming in there.
    Regular gas is around $3.36 - $3.37.
I will post on the blog about every Monday now instead of Friday when our meetings get under way. Probably just put in some of the highlights of the meeting etc. and also other tid bits I think you might be interested in.
    We are still having record breaking heat here, upper 90's, today was an exception because of the nice rain last night, but yesterday it was 102 and the next week upper 90's again.
     So long for now!

Wednesday social Hour

Bill Welch brought his helicopter to Social Hour yesterday! It takes a lot of skill to run the thing, landing it where you want, taking off etc. He does a great job with it. I understand they're quite pricey (these big boy toys)
There were 37 people here

Jacque Anderson had just gotten in, the Norris's from the back side across from Red, Bobby, & Ken

It was Sue Barnharts Birthday! Here she is holding up her macrame plant hanger I made for her.

Friday Coffee & Donuts

  Anita Farley, Martha Millender, & Sue Barnhart provided the donuts this morning.Nothing special discussed. Several new faces this morning. It's fun to see who all comes in and hope everyone has a safe trip down.
   Next Wednesday our Social Hour will move into the big hall, as the group is getting pretty big.

   As some may know Lenius's had a wreck on the way down and totaled their car. They are here now stiff and sore but ok!

   We are looking forward to a fun Halloween Party this month. Fred will be playing again this year, so get your costumes ready!
Come on down!

    There was quite a gathering of folks to watch our new Asst. mgrs. mobile home come in from Harlingen. They put it where Lavada's mobile was. It's a pretty thing!
How they can back those things in one try is just amazing. It's an 18 wide.

 This month has really gone by fast. It still is hot here, upper 90's. Thankful for some nice rains this week.    We didn't have anyone sign up to provide donuts today but Mary Hennigar and Patty Lamp signed up finally, so thank you gals!  We have a few new faces in the park as of this week, Mile Stensland is here now, and Blooms are back.
   Our heater in the pool was repaired after 3 months and now the hot tub was cold last night. It was nice and warm quite soon thank goodness it wasn't something major. Always something.
     Those darn skunks are still running around the park after dark, I saw one Thursday evening just 2 doors down from Dorie Rosendahls, behind us. I understand that there was one caught near where Rutherfords lived but when the Animal Control came, they let it go again! They are not supposed to pick up Skunks, because of rabies. You would think that would be a reason to pick them up.
    We sure enjoy going to Tex-Mex on Thursday mornings, good breakfast and fellowship. Our waiter, Carlos, sang for us again yesterday morning, "Rancho Grande", and "Before the Next Teardrop Falls".
Here's his picture...
     You don't have to ask twice and he will serenade you!
      Betty Aderton said she has back surgery on the 5th of Oct. And Jacque Anderson has shoulder surgery this next week. I feel bad as we sent Nancy Argo's Granddaughter a card, Ann, she's still recuperating from a bad concussion,and the card came back, well, atleast, Nancy we were thinking of her and of course the anxiety you have had is so hard on the family, and thinking about you also, please tell Ann about the card.I did get an email from Arlene Jass, and Gary has been busy this Summer, getting radiation, etc. for  his Cancer, and  looking forward to coming back down this Fall. Gary Philipp called the other day and said his radiation was over for the Cancer in his one lung, and he has a different form of it in his other lung, and they are treating it totally different than the other lung, and will have 5 days of radiation in it in October, looking for them to come down towards the end of October.
