We had a couple thunder storms during the week, but nothing like what was predicted.   No tornadoes but some really windy times with pouring rain.  Then, the sun would come out and get hot and humid.  The gardens and flowers got watered quite well.  Lots of good things in the gardens, especially zucchini, and so many pretty flowers around.   I did hear there are no berries and apples due to the hard frosts we had earlier.   There were lots of blossoms, but no fruit.    Does that mean a “mild” winter this year?  Guess we shall see.   The humming birds didn’t mind the rain at all and the bear managed to come around any time during the day. 

Saturday, the 12th, was a perfect day for the Marek family reunion, held at the home of Ferdie Marek on Church Street.    Folks came to enjoy the day with good food and lots of visiting.  

Irene (Huray) Pequignot, Linden, spent the weekend at her home on Church Street.  She attended her SCHS Class of 1969 annual picnic at Connell’s Dam on Saturday, the 12th.  Fourteen classmates attended with a total of 23 in attendance.  Everyone brought a dish to pass.  They all enjoyed games and, of course, reminiscing.  Plans were discussed for next year’s 55th reunion.

I made a “goof” in my news last week.  It’s Parker, not Carter, Schiele who is the great grandson of Carole Kilgus, who she visited while she was here recently.  Had a nice phone conversation with Carole over the weekend and she enjoys the Sully down in New Holland and she mentioned my mistake.

Happy Birthday to TJ Lowden and Grayson Schiele, 17th;  and Andrew Froese, 20th.  Have a good day.

Happy Anniversary to Bill and Bonnie Killian as they celebrate on the 16th.  Have a nice day.

That’s it for this time.  Enjoy your week.  Hopefully the weather will be nice.   Some days are starting to cool off late in the evening, but we’ll take what we get.  Hardly seems possible that the month of August is almost over and school will be starting before you know it.  I’m sure the kids want more time off.  Keep an eye on the Sully and Face Book for up-coming events that you may be interested in.  I know the SC Fair will be at the end of the month, until Labor Day.  Always something for everyone to enjoy there.

Have news, call me at 570-928-9238, mail me, see me, or e-mail me at news@lopezpa.com.  I will put it in for you.  Thanks for reading and I’ll be here next time.  Comments always welcome.
