A View from the Hill By Doris Brosnan The Morrow County Fair was viewed again this year as a high- light. Some residents, accompanied by volun- teers, attended the fair on Wednesday morning, tak- ing in all the sights, sounds, and scents. Burgers and fries were followed by fro- zen yogurt before heading back to the Terrace with the morning’s memories. Residents Randall Peterson, grand marshal from the St. Pat’s Irish pa- rade, and Ginger O’Brien, member of a past Morrow County Fair and Rodeo court, both participated in the parade this year. Also in August, on the 24th, the commu- nity welcomed back Jerry Green. And they welcomed Jeanette Willman and Jazmyn Dubry in August as part-time employees. Residents have been enjoying the sunny days on the front patio, an- ticipating more to come. They are also anticipating a great meal as this last sum- mer month begins because someone has declared Sep- tember 3 as National Baby Back Ribs Day. September 4 will be National Wildlife Day, but at least in some way ev- ery day on the Hill is wild- life day, as four-legged and feathered creatures visit.
