varieties of mum plants. There is a a large
tree peony in the garden, which last year.
Vera said had 105 blossoms.
The back yard is framed by an arborvitae
hedge planted in front of an attractive board
fence. A small greenhouse built by her
husband sits in the center, which Vera, in its
inception, enjoyed starting her own bedding
plants along with the help of one young high
school student. Ralph Martin, who enjoyed
working and sharing plants. Ralph, who is a
professional florist living at Lake Oswego,
gives Vera credit for his interest and love of
flowers. (Ralph says Vera is the one who got
him headed in the direction he took with his
profession.)

Heppner INews
Although air travel is most
uncertain during the control
lers' strike, lucky Inez Erwin
made it safely home last
Wednesday, Aug. 12, after a
fine, visit in Europe with her
daughter, Shirley, son-in-law,
Dick Clark, and their sons,
David and Scott.
Inez flew to Stuttgart, visit
ed Vienna with grandson,
Scott, and vacationed in
Scandanavia with the Clarks.
She was able to get from
Denmark to London and found
many travelers at Heathrow
Airport there stranded and
discouraged.
However, Inez's good looks,
sweet charm and tact, or
maybe just good luck, got her
on a Canadian flight, which
after reaching Vancouver,
B.C., was helpfully extended
to Seattle. She came on to
Portland and home, but her
luggage was somewhere else.
On Sunday Inez received the
joyful news that her bags had
reached Pendleton where she
went to pick them up. She is
feeling mighty fortunate that
she and her luggage all made
it home to Heppner.
