Do you know where your snow shovel is? Bet youre going to need them one of these days. Frost is definitely in the air. The wood fire added a glow to go with the warm greetings exchanged by President Delia Griffith and all our friends. Eleanor Morby was a welcome sight to see. She looks pretty perky now that she knows her medical problem is under control. Hope she doesn't do that again. I know we have heard over and over again the importance of us ladies getting our mammograms regularly. This week, Jean Paskett, the nurse with the Summit County Health Department, gave us a most interesting and informative talk on breast cancer and reinforced the need for the mammograms. This week we will be getting flu shots. It wont hurt much, especially if you don't watch when the needle goes in and it helps when the needle doesnt have a dull end. Delia conducted our short busi- ness meetings. Grant Geary and June Toole offered the prayers. If your busy social calendars will allow it, be sure to put our Halloween Party on the 29th down so you wont miss a fun time. The rainy weather has cut down on our attendance slightly. Just served 59 this week. As Jerry would say, We may not have quantity but we do have quality. I guess we are selfish because we want both. The frost has made it necessary forme to harvest my garden. Had a lot better one this year than I have had in the past. Had the best sweet com ever. All six ears. Too bad, I planted so many peas. Weve got a problem with die pumpkins. Only two and have three grandkids. Well, theyre still a little green so hope that Halloween comes late this year. Had the kids helping with the planting and one of them spilled a package of lettuce seed in die flowers. Didnt know whether the flowers were lettupe or weeds. Or was it the other way around? I sure have a lot of carrots. Some of them are the size of a worn out pencil. Then there are a lot of little ones. I wont go into detail about the potatoes, tomatoes, and melons. I only write PEOPLE about my successes. Hope your harvest has been as great as mine. See you next week. SERVING Goroon? Sometimes we never know if he is serious or not.' I think he has a reputation as a bit of a leg puller Today he told us that one of the group received a proposal over the weekend, hinting of marriage, and when asked who, he said the person with the biggest smile on their face. Looking around, we saw lots of smiles, so that clue was useless. So now we have a mystery that only Gordon and that someone can resolve. I hope we solve it a lot quicker than the mystery of Christopher Columbus and Leif Ericson on who . discovered America first! Lovely to see Melva and Vom here again, and we know it makes Gussie happy, too. Vanessa Walsh came from California to visit her mom and dad (Cindy and Roma Walsh) and our friend, Reba, from Peoa. Grandma Reba had a great time, she had a big smile, too, but she promised was because of her granddaughter, not because of any me it proposal. This week, we were also glad to visit with Lamerle, from Las Vegas. Elaine said she had been staying with her daughter in Heber A fun afternoon of pumpkin City and a couple of nights in Kamas. Our mystery lady cant be Lamerle for she is heading back to Las Vegas. Afton Brimhall was with us today. Good to see you leave those books for awhile and relax with your friends. Are you the mystery lady? We had visits from Jim Soter and Tom Flinders, both running for seats as Summit County Commissioners. The big day is Nov. 8 and they ask that you use your voting privileges. Keeping democracy alive is very important. Both candidates have distributed in- formation regarding their political positions.

Dave Watson, bass player for the Oak Ridge Boys, and Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation (RMEF) board member Wayne Carlton put their talents and mutual concerns for wildlife together to write Last Stand in the Rockies.

Back home in Nashville, Watson pulled band to help together an all-sthim professionally record the song. He recruited musicians from Travis ar Tritts, Reba McEntires, and Wynonnas band.
