Good news — on Sunday, with the help of some extra muscles, we got all the heavy shelving and tables moved back into the sorting room. Now next week we can get the rest of the things moved down and get back to normal again. The room looks so clean and bright now, with fresh paint and new flooring.
We had a great turnout for our senior members’ barbecue. It sounded like everyone was having a good time. Thanks to all the helpers and the use of the big barbecue again.
It was a nice Fourth parade. It had a few “new” old cars in it and Princess Betty Wagoner got to ride in an old VW Thing. Now to get her healed up after her two accidents and back on her horse.
