Community Supper

Isn't it funny how sometimes when you sit down to write something that nothing comes to mind.

I haven't seen a deer up in the Gratten area in 3 days of driving. Not sure if with the hot weather they are back in the woods or if there just aren't as many deer up in that area. I did see one scrawny coyote yesterday in the area but that has been it.

The geese have quit coming into the field also. It is a strange fall. Hopefully we will continue to get some nice weather as I still have quite a bit of things to get done for winter.

Today I heard that the Farmers Almanac is predicting a long cold winter with little snow. That will make it feel even colder. I guess I will have to break down and put up some plastic on some of my older windows in the house.

Just a reminder:

Community Supper, September 22 from 4:30 to 7:00p at the Community Center. Menu is Tacos. Proceeds go to Fresh Water for Life. This is sponsored by St. Catherine Ladies and Centennial Lutheran Ladies. These ladies put on a great meal hope to see you there enjoying the meal and the friendship.

Not too much on my calendar for this month.

Last night the Avenue of Pines Civic Association met and began work on the new brochure booklet for the area. We will be including a larger area in this booklet. So if you know of any businesses in the area from Little Ball Club Lake north to Northome, west to the Itasca County line, and east to Highway 6 please let them know about this new booklet. If they would like information on it they can call Julie at 218-659-4239. There are a lot more people working on this but me but I haven't thought to ask them if they wanted to be a contact person. Our brochure that we put out a year ago has been well received and as we are almost out of them we decided to start working on a bigger book.

Any points of interest in the area that you can think of that should be put into the booklet??

As always when working on a project this size it would be nice to have extra hands to help with it. So if you have the time how about helping out.

Not sure why I'm so tired tonight but it is 9:30 pm and I'm ready to hit the hay.

Hope you are in good health and spirits.

Julie
