Coffee and Donuts


Al & Dolores Mason provided the donuts this morning. There were only 28 there, unless someone came in later, as I didn't stay very long. The Kerr's are home! they came in, and just now saw them both mowing their yards, catch up time, they had someone mow while they were gone but they came home just in time as the yards were starting to need mowing again! We are having Father's Day dinner Sunday in the hall over 42 signed up so far. I will take my camera, and make a smilebox for you.
I got a call from the Berglunds,they got home Thursday, (yesterday) made it home in time to unpack and get situated. Dave had left his passport on his dresser here in the Valley so I sent it to them, I think Monday afternoon, it was waiting at the post office when they went and got their mail! Pretty fast service for our Post Office! He was very happy as the Grandaughter has a dance recital they want to go to on the Canada side this weekend.
I received an email from Mary Lou Benson, she reminded us to get our reservation for the campout at Clermont,Ia. Which we did. We will be in spot 18...for those going you'll know where to stay away from lol! It sounds like fun again this year with our nightly get-to-gethers for dinner, some fun excursions, and Mary Lou ordered t shirts with a special design. Tom Benson will cook a whole hog on Friday night I think that would be the 12th, not sure, anyway also hope to have the omelets in a bag
on Sat. possibly.Mary Lou talked to Roger and Darlene andrews Sunday at Church. She has begun Chemo so everyone say a prayer that everything goes well for her!
I talked to Hazel Bocock recently. She said it rains every day there. They took a trip to Canton and on the way home got into tornado warnings, hail damaged their car. Then another trip to Amarillo, and another tornado warnings with hail damaged the car, then on another trip, around Edder OK another bad storm and golf ball size hail, she said they pulled around a gas station and got under an awning but still got some more damage!! She said she wasn't going to get the car fixed until the weather straightens out.
Gary and Jan Philipps said there's been rain darn near every day there too. And heard on the news last night of 62 tornados in MN and IA last night, 2 killed in MN.
Yikes the weather better straighten out or this ole gal will stay right down here lol
Thank goodness there is a shelter at Skip-away Campground!
I got another email from Marge Reishus, she and Ann Johnson and Shirley Stensrud met Dorothy Borah in Brookings, S.D. to celebrate an early Birthday for Dorothy. Also Ann and Marge spent a couple days at Stenruds this past week and had dinner at Bennigans, celebrating Don & Shirleys Anniversary I guess the weather wasn't to great but they had a good time
It has been hot here the humidity seems so much higher this Summer. The evenings and mornings still gorgous though.
Keep those emails coming, I will have something more to write about!!
