A View from the Hill

The Willow Creek
Terrace residents and staff
look no worse for wear,
so one may assume that
everyone has survived
some recent challenges
unscathed. Not only did
most of the residents enjoy
some of Heppner’s Wee
Bit O’ Ireland events, they
must also have worn green
on St. Pat’s Day, as no
one has complained about
having been pinched. And
no one has admitted to
being fooled on April Fools’
Day, either.
The greatest challenge,
however, has probably
been the remodeling of the
Terrace kitchen, but the
staff members and residents
seemed to take in stride the
altered cooking and dining
arrangem ents and the
construction sounds. These
understanding, patient,
and flexible people act as
though living with some
chaos is to be expected from
time to time.
Two new residents
arrived in time to get in on
the slight confusion and
witness the transformation
of the kitchen into a more
efficient space. Clinton
“Kenneth” and Lucile Peck
moved to the Terrace from
Lexington on March 24.
Just over a week later,
Lucile hosted their son and
daughter at her birthday
luncheon, on April 1,
sharing her menu of choice
and her birthday cake made
by their daughter-in-law
with them and the new
neighbors.
Heppner High to present
musical ‘Newsies’
Nine days later, on
April 10, RG Watkins
celebrated his second
birthday at the Terrace.
He and Flossie moved in
just before his birthday
last year. Family members
dropped in with birthday
wishes throughout the day,
and their granddaughter
and neighbors enjoyed
RG’s birthday dinner that
evening.
April 10 was also
National Siblings Day,
which stimulated some
interesting conversation
that morning. Several
residents reminisced about
some favorite pets the next
day, which was National
Pet Day
•This week, on the 26,h.
the morning discussion
could be interspersed with
some sighs and titters, for
the topic will focus on
Remember-Your-First-Kiss
Day. Two favorite “special
days” this month have been
Chocolate Mousse Day
(3rd) and Twinkles’ 84,h
Birthday (6lh). and residents
are surely looking forward
to the cook's concoctions
on Cherry Cheesecake Day
(23rd) and Blueberry Pie
Day (28th).
Last Friday was a
colorful day on the Hill, as
the residents were joined
by some young friends to
color Easter eggs. Last year,
for the first time, the Easter
Bunny made its way to the
Terrace after this coloring
event, and on Easter
morning, residents had to
search high and low for
their eggs. Chances were
100 percent that the fuzzy
bunny would do the same
thing again last Sunday.
