Chris Pearce asked me this morning to please post on this blog her thanks for all the cards, help and well wishes that she has received. She told me to please especially thank Darlene Jansen for the immediate, and continued help that Darlene offered Chris and Ron when the accident happened and for quite a long while afterward. She was their chauffeur to and from the doctor over at Brownsville and I suspect "chief cook and bottle washer" for quite some time. Chris and Ron needed help, lots of help in fact and Darlene was there for them.
I have been busy working on the directory for Trails End and I have it almost ready for the pictures to be popped in and then I can take it over to the printer. We do it in color and it is really nice to have the color but much more expensive than our black and white Magnolia directories were. Those were $3.00 I think and this one will probably be $12.00 but it also has more pages as this is a bigger park.
I talked to Irma just a bit ago and they are bracing for the big snow storm in the upper midwest. Some areas have been predicted to get as much as 12-18 inches or more and central Wisconsin is one of those areas. Then the arctic cold is going to roar in but it won't last long as next week is supposed to be back in the 30s.
I happened to ask Don Harper how Fred Rabe is doing and Don does talk to him every once in a while. I believe he is living with his daughter. We do wonder about people with whom none of us have any contact. Lots of good memories from Magnolia Park!
As always, if you have news you'd like to share, please let me know.
