New Resident in Magnolia

We have a new resident in Magnolia and her name is Norma Erwin.... She is just a sweet lady and will be a great addition to the Magnolia Family... She moved her home in the place Nelson Zoet had on 313 Cottonwood...She is slowly getting things where she can find them again.. Comes with moving for every one I guess... We all can get ready to say Welcome to her when every one comes back this fall....

New Road Surface for old Bus. 83

For the last couple of weeks they have been working on the highway in front of our park and it is sure looking good...They have just completed painting the stripes so I thought it was time to show off the job.... Another new thing for you to enjoy when the Magnolia Family from up NORTH comes back this fall.. ..The park is kind of lonesome now so come back as quickly as you can.. HA HA

Birthday News From Up NORTH

Hi Sorry about not putting something on the Blog for a while but we have been on Vacation UP NORTH for a couple of weeks.. Visiting the kids and grand kids, also had a 50th year reunion of my class mates.. Had a great trip except for the gas prices.. HA HA I received an E-mail from Leslie Cleaveland and I will share it with you..

Hi How's everything In Texas? I wondered if you would put a little blurb in the Magnolia News that we are having a "90th " birthday celebration for Berwyn and Erma on Sunday, June 22nd here in Oakland.. I know they would be pleased to hear from all their Magnolia friends....Their address is 705 Park Lane, Oakland, Ia. 51560.. We are having lots of rain here.. Everything is so green and growing.. There are some big farmers who don't have all their crops in yet... It's getting kind of serious and more rain in the forecast.. Hope all is well there.... Leslie

I think it would be kind of nice to surprise Berwyn and Erma with a lot of cards and or letters... They are such great people... We didn't get to see them while we were up in that area and I know I am going to catch heck for it, but we were on the go all the time it seems like.... I will try and put some more on the blog as I get it....Keep safe and healthy everyone.....

Latest from the Shay's

Just wanted to thank everyone that has sent get well cards, calls and prayers to Dennis. The surgery was a breeze and now he feels the 'pain is gain'. Able to walk and ride more. Regaining more strength everyday. Now to get the back herniated discs better. I also thank those that had comforting words on the loss of another brother. Not being able to go to the family was hard. Dennis & I now see a light at the end of the tunnel and it is not a train! Nita & Dennis Shay
