Notebook
Ida Risser
We were always told to have
our sugar peas planted by St Pat

dow looks like a disaster area. Big
trees have been cut down and he
has some 30 logs for sale. The ash
and hickory are 25 feet long and
three and four feet across. When

meadow to look at again.
There are cabbage, broccoli.

My daughters gave me gift cer
tificates from a seed catalog as
Christmas gifts. So, I was able to

Lately, my high school class
has been meeting every other
month for lunch. At one time only

together with hobbies. Naturally,
the group is continually growing
smaller but we will enjoy it while
we can.
