Just driving home from work not knowing you're violating the law when you see those red flashing lights, in your rear view mirror. In an instant, I realized that cop and those lights were meant for me to pull over. Hands shaking, praying I didn’t cry but that I could act calm and cool, I rolled my window down, looked up into that stern, unsmiling face and heard “license, insurance and owner’s card, please.” What did I do, I asked. He said “passing on the berm.” For 10 months I've driven that same road, cars take the inside every single night and turn in at Agway usually there are : a whole line of JEAN them, this night HILLARD I am the lone car. No warning, no explanation, just it’s against the law. A $52.00 fine and I don’t know how the point system works but I’m sure there will be something there, too. Just a normal day, off to work do the best job I can, then home for my granddaughter, but it wasn’t just a normal day. To all of you who do the same as I’ve been doing, don’t! One night a cop will arrest you and if you’re like me, you're really innocent, but illegal. -0- SPEAKING OF COPS, our sincere get well wishes go to the two who were shot while in the line of duty last Saturday morning in the wee hours. Just doing their job and someone walks in the police station and shoots them in the leg area. Their job is so risky, to Wayman Miers and James Tupper, two fine patrolmen protecting us and risking their own lives, we thank them for a ‘thankless’ job and wish them a speedy recovery. -0- A TRAGIC ACCIDENT near the skating rink and Bryant’s Mobile Homes on Friday evening took the life of a young Back Mountain man, Chris Evans, of Overbrook Road. Our sympathy goes out to his family and loved ones. Two more young men remain in serious and critical condition following that same wreck. Gary Cutter of Harveys Lake and Doug Burak of Shavertown are in Wilkes-Barre General Hospital. -0- SATURDAY, early in the evening, yet another accident had the Back Mountain residents in a dither when a car rammed into the famous hot dog place, the Ranch Wagon in Shavertown. Luckily, the car went into the ice cream room where no one was at the time and didn’t hit any of the cars in the parking lot. Usually at 6 p.m. on a Saturday the lot there is jammed with vehicles, this particular Saturday it wasn’t. Heavy damage to the building resulted. -0- IT’S A GIRL! Wendy Bolton, instructor at Great Beginning problems. NS delivered a healthy baby girl on Thursday, June 5. Both Mom and daughter are doing great. I wonder if Wendy will be exercising this week. She hadn’t missed a week right up until delivery. Congratulations Wendy, I’ll bet she stretches and jumps around already. Little brother Jeffrey and Dad now have two lovely ladies home with them. -0- I GOOFED! Two weeks ago I told you about the lovely visit and give Helen Sheaan gave her Dad and Mom. Well her dad is Stephan Waldow (now Waldow Sheean) and I inadvertently gave him his daughter’s last name also. All he should have gotten was that lovely Cockatiel and the pleasure of her visit from California, she wanted her own name. Sorry Mr. Waldow, I hope you’re still enjoying your new pet. -0- MRS. THELMA CULP, Ricketts Glen area of Sweet Valley has returned home after spending two weeks in Jacksonville, Florida. Mrs. Culp attended the wedding of her grandson while there. I'm sorry to hear that she became ill when returning home and spent a few days in the hospital. She is doing better now and it’s good to see and talk to her again. It turns out this very friendly lady knew my father very well over the years and I sure enjoyed those few minutes she spent talking about him. “The Farvers, she said, especially Paul (my dad), why I knew him probably better than your mother did.”” It’s a small, small world. -0- AL LIPKO, owner of Ye Olde Clock Shoppe in Dallas has been a patient in Wilkes-Barre General Hospital following a heart attack. He has now been transferred to Jefferson Memorial Hospital in Philadelphia where he will undergo open heart surgery for a triple by- pass. We send our get well wishes along to Mr. Lipko as he recuperates from surgery. -0- JILL CROMPTON, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Crompton, Trucksville, and Karen Thompson, daughter of Ed and Theresa Thompson, Dallas, left via airplane Saturday afternoon for California. The two girls will be spending a couple weeks visiting their former classmate and good friend Renee Duran who now lives and works in California. Last minute flight jitters had the girls very apprehensive, but their emotions were under control enough to board the plane when departure time came. It was Jill's first flight and Karen's second. I'm sure it will all be worth it and they’ll have a great trip. -0- CONGRATULATIONS Bishop O'Reilly and Dallas graduates. (Jean Hillard, a Back Mountain resident, is a columnist for The Dallas Post.
