shaped front hemline. The straight
semi-fitted skirt was comple
mented by a vest, off-white
blouse, and a black wool hat and
leather gloves and shoes. Susan’s
grandmother, Edith Wise, made
the suit.
Susan is the current Knox
County Sheep Queen and is a
senior at Danville High School.
She plans to major in accounting
or education at college next year.
In addition to points for model

outfit was 100 percent wool, if
they had made their own outfit,
and if they owned the sheep they

September has always been
considered by me to be the busiest
month of the year because there is
so much to harvest. But this year it
will be October that is busiest as
we plan to move later in the
month.
I’ve already put some SO flower
plants from the garden into pots.
They are stored on the back porch
for the time being and I’m hoping
our six black cats and kittens don’t
break them. They can gingerly
walk around them without touch
ing them. However, the three Idt-

can damage fragile plants.
Lately I’ve been hauling
baskets of tomatoes to my Amish
neighbors. As I grew the plants
from seed, they are just now bear
ing abundantly and I’ve already
canned all that I need. You see,
there was a large cany over from
the previous year and I do not
need any more.
We expect to have a big sweet
potato crop if the few plants that I
robbed are any indication. With

large sweet potatoes. Despite the
dry weather the vines have com
pletely covered 18 feet of the gar

potatoes are now difficult to find.
To add to the busy season, my
husband decided that “now” was
when he wanted his cataract oper
ation. Our youngest daughter took
off from her job and came home.
He spent eight hours in the hospi
tal and when the patch was
removed from his eye the next
day, he was amazed to find that he
could see fine without glasses.
But, as he has been blind in one
eye since birth, it was a long 24
hours for him. Being fed and led
around is no fun. I’m sure that in
time he would have adjusted and
become more independent.
It certainly is a miracle when
we consider what modem surgery
can accomplish!
