Last Weeks News – Saturday morning we had white covered rooftops on McCann Ave., but cannot see anything hurt as the flowers are still in bloom. This Monday afternoon is full of sunshine and it’s streaming through the windows with warmth and it feels good. This fall the trees are showing beautiful color, the most I have ever seen.

I happened to be at Mama Jean’s Health Food Store this morning and found two new friends, formerly from Ava and Mtn. Grove, Kloy Norman, from the Ava Drug Store family and a shopper, Judy (Walker) Killingworth. I knew some of her family, the Macky’s and she knew some of my family in Mtn. Grove. We all enjoyed chatting and I hope to meet them again some other day.
Because God is with us, we need not fear what is ahead of us.
