By Jacqueline Ramsay The Vernonia Senior Spelling Bee once again hosted a group of citizens willing to compete against each other just for the fun of it. This year’s winners, pictured above from left, are first place winner Tobie Finzel, second place Bob Eastman and Ruth Bell in third place. It has been sort of hot of late, yes? I've been walking early in the morning lately. There are quite a few fishermen out early also. I met a miniature Greyhound the other morning - what a treat, I have never heard of one. It was perfect in every detail - such grace when it ran. Hello - if you missed attending the last performance of the 7 & 8 Grade Drama group, you were the loser. “The Paper Bag Bandit Rides Again” was preceded by a Vaudeville Show and sev eral skits - no Can-Can Dancers - the cast and crew did an ex cellent job. It took me back to my Junior High acting career, which culminated in High School with the Operetta “A Mid Summer Nights Dream” (The Donkey Serenade) Ahh - youth. Gee Whiz, I saw something Tuesday morning at 8:30 as I left town that I’ve not seen since moving here in July of ‘86. A train crossing over Highway 47. I’ve been under the trestle scads of times at that time of day. Where does it go? How often does it run? Being a Railroad Brat, it gave my nostalgia button a jolt. Graduation is over - Congratulations to the Seniors. But - what about all the other students who hung in there all year, who got through another year without so much as a High 5??? From Kindergarten through Juniors in High School, it’s a hard job and they are our future. Congratulations to all of you. Keep your eye on the prize. Get from where you are to where you aim to be. Hang in there Andy, Preston, Cody and John at VCA.
