group meets
M OW PLOW ?

Mike and Linda Koloski
have reconvened the Wallowa
County Parkinson’s Support
Group, which met March 12.
Mike said the meeting, in
the Wallowa Memorial Hospi-
tal Conference Room, included
“a small but very enthusiastic
cadre of Parkinson’s Disease
patients, care partners and fam-
ily.” Koloski said they met to
share information and fellow-
ship.
Parkinson’s is a progressive
movement disorder suffered
by 3 to 5 percent of humans.
Though incurable at present, it
can be managed through medi-
cation, exercise and diet.
Based on national statistics,
Koloski estimates there may
be as many as 375 people in
Wallowa County who have the
disease.
We welcomes them and
their loved ones to the group’s
next monthly meeting. For
more information on the sup-
port group call Mike or Linda
at 541-426-8604.

Larry Langerman of
Enterprise devised this
clever — and useful
— lawnmower with
attached snowplow
that has attracted
a lot of attention
and smiles from
Safeway customers
and passersby, but
no buyer (yet). “I’ve
used it to plow snow
over by the Senior
Center when there’s
just an inch or two,” he
said. “It works great.”
Langerman, who
repairs mowers and
other things, recently
dropped the price
of his self-propelled
“snow-mower” to $30.

QUALLE
Continued from Page A4
With the town of Chinook
in sight I tried to ease the ten-
sion by telling the little wom-
an we were kind of retracing
Chief Joseph’s trek from the
Wallowa Valley and his last
stand was about twenty miles
from where we were. I point-
ed out the boundary plateau
that was visible and in Cana-
da. She seemed to have no in-
terest in history and I consid-
ered chastising her for trying
to ruin an otherwise wonder-
ful experience.
When we return to Wal-
lowa County due to bad
weather and poor road condi-
tions I think I will only con-
sider the familiar interstate
and point out individual sage
brush I now recognize. People
with no sense of adventure
miss a lot when traveling.
I found a poem that suits
this winter:
It takes patience and
vigilance, the power to
persist and the power to
endure. It takes grit in the
people to match the granite
in the climate. They hang on,
they grope for fi rmness, and
sometimes they win.
- Carlyle King.
The same can be said for
taking side roads.
