S IX - H e p p n e r G aze tte-T im e s, Heppner, O regon W ednesday, April 27,2011 A view from the hill By Doris Brosnan A view o f the Wil low Creek Terrace dining room instantly registers “change.” Missing are some fam iliar faces, those o f three residents who have moved to other living ar rangements. But the scene now includes some new faces, so the community has had the opportunity to become acquainted with new neighbors. Liz Buel- ler and Mabel Heath have moved in, and two respite- care visitors, Virginia Grieb and Anna May Steagall, will be adding to the social camaraderie for at least a couple o f months. The new neighbors have moved in time to get involved in the spring proj ect introduced to the Ter race community two years ago: The Garden. Some preparation o f the garden spot has been a gift from George Seiler. Some deci sions on what to plant have been made. Some seeds are in. Some sprouts are, up. Some residents wonder if the wind will ever stop long enough to allow them to get outside for some more gardening! While waiting for the warmer, calmer, garden ing, strolling and basking weather, residents enjoy opportunities to be active while remaining warm. Ev ery weekday morning is an opportunity for physical ex ercise, while also stretching the gray matter with brain games and conversation. Opportunities for reading or listening to books are supplied by Sally Walker and Suzanne Jepsen. If Bingo or crafting is o f in terest, opportunities arise1 every Monday and Friday at the Terrace, thanks to Eve lronhawk, Shirley George, Mary Ann Elguezabal, Ja net Greenup, and the HHS National Honor Society. On Thursdays, residents have the opportunity to hear Pas tor Katy Anderson entertain at the Terrace piano. An opportunity for discussions comes on Thursdays when Jepsen, N eva D eM ayo, Betty Carlson, and Sharon Woodside take turns read ing the Gazette-Times with residents. And, if Bingo on Mondays is not enough to satisfy, residents have the opportunity to bus down to the St. Patrick’s Senior Center on Tuesdays and to Lexington on Thursdays for more. Readers of this col umn also have opportunities at Willow Creek Terrace. Guests who call in advance are welcomed at the dining com m unity view s such tables o f both residents and kindnesses with grateful staff. Persons w ho have tal hearts. ents to share with the com munity are encouraged to arrange a visit through the office. Anyone who enjoys pulling weeds or digging in the dirt is encouraged to talk to the staff about get *Lots of Sizes* ting in on these activities * Lots of Colors* on the hill.
