Had a mish mash of weather the last week.  Monday we had 48.6 mph winds and cold.  Then a few days of warmth.  Tuesday it hit 59 degrees and nice.  Saturday we had a good frost but turned out warmer later in the day.  I think I saw some snow flurries on Sunday evening.   We are very lucky.  Down South they were hit with tornadoes with lots of damage and deaths.  Our prayers go out to all those down there that have been affected by the devastation.   I guess we are to get another week of on and off rain, snow showers, rain, snow showers.  You got it……rain and snow showers. 

Thank you to Janet Sell, Macungie for her donation to the Lopez Civic Association.  It all helps to keep the Association going to help pay bills, have activities for the kids and keeping things running smoothly.  If you’d like to donate, please send it to Lopez Civic Association, P.O. Box 100, Lopez, PA  18628.  It’s all appreciated.

Did you know if you store your eggs upside down they will stay fresh longer?    Also, if you put a bay leaf in your bag of flour, it will help keep the bugs away.

Don’t forget.  This weekend is the 54th annual Che-Hanna Rock and Mineral Gem Show.  Held on Saturday and Sunday, the 23rd and 24, at the Wysox Volunteer Fire Company social hall.    Check Face Book for much more information about this event.

Also, on Sunday, the 24th, is the Veterans fundraiser at the Dushore American Legion.  Starts at Noon until 5 p.m.  Thank you to Sally Bender for arranging this benefit to help homeless Veterans.  All proceeds go to Our Orangeville Manor for homeless veterans  where they are well taken care of.  There will be music, basket raffles, 50/50 drawings, soup sales, bake sale, crafts.   For any questions, text Sally Bender at 570-406-3250 or PM on her Face Book page.   If you can help in any way, please do.

Happy Birthday to Aaron Kinsey, 21st.  Have a nice day.

Welcome to Endless Novelties & Tobacco that opened in the former Dushore Market building.  Good luck and great success..  They have ice cream, lottery tickets, skill games, gift items, candy and snacks, along with tobacco.  Stop in and see them.

Hope everyone is well and haven’t been bothered with the flu bug.  There is still something going around that hits people off and on.  If you’re one of them, I hope you feel better really soon.  Hopefully, we’ll have some nice weather that will stay and make everyone feel better.

Guess that’s it.  Enjoy your week.  Might be a little cold and snowy yet, but we have the rest of March to get through and I think we’ll be doing much better.  Just hope we don’t get hit with a big snow storm.  That would not be good at all.

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