6 Inches & Rising!

Happy New Year Gang:

We're ready for the celebration! Mr. Edwin T. Slurry got stuck in Arizona so he sent ahead a whole carton of paper hats and noisemakers. It was, in Edna's words, "Just what we need." Just what we need is some people but Edna says not to worry. They'll come in here tonight cause the roads are too bad to go much of any other place.

Christmas dinner went well despite the last minute menu change from turkey to turkey ham. Then that shipment made it through to the processor. Look to a turkey pot pie special sometime in the near future. But last week, right when we were ready to start dinner service someone pipped up with, "Shouldn't someone say grace!" It's a matter of habit, I guess. Larry's family always does and mine never did. We were always submarine Lutherans. You know, we surfaced on Christmas and Easter. Maeve's family always does; Jay Lee's doesn't. It just never came up here before and the bishop of the Loon Center Lutheran Synod had just gone off to the bathroom so Earl said he'd do it. Earl. All I can says is next time we'll wait for the bishop.

Glad you came in on your way to wherever.
Jenn
