JOHN DAY – On April 6,
we had tuna noodle casserole,
peas, green salad, garlic toast
and apple cupcakes with cara-
mel icing. It was all very
good. Ron Dowse and Susan
Fowle greeted us at the desk.
Isa Larkin and Joyce No-
dine delivered 20 meals, and
18 frozen ones went to shut-
ins. Veanne Weddle deliv-
ered to the Mt. Vernon area.
Our servers were from Blue
Mountain Hospital Auxiliary.

Veanne didn’t have any an-
nouncements, and there were
no guests. Jan Ellison won

On April 9, we had teriyaki
chicken, rice, oriental vegeta-

furnished by the Blue Moun-
tain Eagle, represented by
some of the Eagle staff: Kris-

Kim Kell, Lindsay Bullock
and Scotta Callister. Thank
you folks, for furnishing the
meal and also for joining us.
It’s nice to see the people who
sponsor the meals.
Marianne Morris and Glo-
ria Kulis greeted us at the
desk. Al Altnow and Chris
Labhart delivered 25 meals
in the John Day area. Veanne
took 10 frozen meals to shut-
ins in the Monument area last
week.

Levi Manitsas told a story
before asking the blessing. It
was nice to see Levi’s wife
and daughter join him. Wel-
come, and please come back.
That little one is a doll.
Veanne thanked Gary
Lieuallen for donating a whole
ham. She also announced there
has been a black jacket here
for a few weeks. If you’ve lost
one, please come claim it.
It was Ron and Roberta
Dowse’s 13th wedding an-
niversary. Buz Glass was air
lifted to Bend with a heart
problem the day before. They
are inserting a pace maker and
he is doing well. Should be
home in a day or two.
Ron Dowse announced
there will be a going away
party for Gene and Barbara
Brady, 4 p.m. Friday, April
24, at the Mt. Vernon Grange
Hall. Finger foods will be
served.

dressing. You get a variety of
drinks plus dessert, too – and
all for $4 for seniors; $5 for
those under 60. Come join
the fun and fellowship, then
stay for bingo. We had a good
turnout, and hope to have one
next week also.
On Monday, April 20,
we’ll have a free meal of ham
and lima beans, with salad
and cornbread with whipped
honey butter.

out to check the transplanted
grape vine; I believe I see new
buds a-comin’! Oh, goody.
The spring bulbs are all in full
bloom, and the trees are get-
ting green, so I assume spring
has come to Grant County. On
that note, remember the Eve-
ning of Entertainment on Sat-
urday, April 18. The theme is
“Spring.” If you aren’t careful,
you’ll miss “Spring” in Grant
County.
It was 65 degrees at some
point the last of March, and
then snowed on Easter. And the
service at the old gym was just
fabulous. The snow didn’t keep

Discovered this morning that
“Good-bye” means “God bless
you.”
We had grape juice, a veg-
gie plate, Fonda’s baked beans,
potatoes, barbecue pulled pork,
rolls and an apple-cheesecake
with caramel topping. There
were 67 people enjoying this de-
licious meal. The Blue Mountain
Care Center ladies, Lorna and
Jonie, brought Dorothy Blasing,
Lois Hill, Dollina Humphreys
and Idamae Tussing.

There was pasta and beans
to take home for anyone inter-
ested. I assume it was from the
food bank.
Found another person with
a connection to the Jewel and
Katie Walker family we lived
next to, back in the 1950s: Na-
dine Smith. Kate was her aunt.
Usually girls are named Jewel,
but he was a “gem” of a man.
Always reminded me of actor

handsome. Anyhow, the point
is, isn’t it amazing all these

Louise LaBaugh came in. You

Hopefully after the Evening
of Entertainment doings, I’ll
get back to the harp. First have
to replace a couple of strings.
They’re not as easy to do as
violin, cello or guitar strings.
There’s even a special “harper’s
knot” you are supposed to use,
and a diagram of how to make
it, but I am awful at following
those things. Can’t even make
