We sure have had some crazy weather. Cold, windy days; some warmer days. Power outage for six and a half hours on Friday. Pouring down rain and a snow squall that was like a blizzard. We had it all. Last I heard we are to get a storm Thursday night into Friday with quite a lot of snow coming. Guess it’s still winter. Fifty degrees in February is rare so take it while it’s here. With the cold weather, all the germs should be gone. Hope you all are well and not bothered with virus or flu. Warm weather is on the way, some day.
Hope you all had a good President’s Day holiday. I know there were quite a few things that went on in the County over that weekend and hope you enjoyed whatever you did.
St. Vladimir’s Church has pierogies for sale the first and third Sunday of the month. They can be picked up at the Church Hall from Noon to 1 p.m. Call 570-928-8909 to order.
With the horrible wind that we’ve had, the drone in the park got quite tilted. Maybe it was going on a trip. Anyway, thanks to the guys who put it back right and hopefully it won’t tip again. Good job much appreciated.
I mentioned in my column last week that the aluminum foil worked well for cucumbers but I wasn’t impressed with the lettuce. I got a call from Ed and Linda Thall and they enjoy those tidbits and she said she has no problem with the lettuce. Said it also works well for celery. So, in talking, she mentioned to put the dull side of the foil against the lettuce. I tried that and it is working much better. Must be something with the shiny side it won’t work. Thanks for your comments and glad you enjoy the tips.
Happy Birthday wishes to Bob McGuire, Jr. and Christopher Sneidar who both celebrate on the 26th. Have a nice day.
There will probably be activities going on in the County, so keep an eye on the Sully and also the Sullivan County News and Bulletin Board on Face Book. There may be something you’d be interested in.
On Sunday, the 20th, in 1978, it was clear and cold and 22 degrees, according to Mr. Neubauer’s little blue book. I like to look back at these little bits of information.
Here’s a tip for a cold remedy. Need this for this time of year. To hot tomato juice, add the juice of one or two garlic cloves, the juice of half a lemon, and about 1/16 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Drink! The results are amazing and sure to fight off any cold with force and speed. Wow! That sounds potent but will try it if I get sick and see if it helps.
Guess that’s it for now. Enjoy your week, going to have a couple of nice days, then stormy again. We can handle it Spring is just around the corner, somewhere. Have news, call me at 570-928-9238; snail mail me; see me; or e-mail me at news@lopezpa.com. I will get it in for you. Please give me any news by 6 p.m. on Sunday evening. Thanks for reading and I’ll be here next time.
