RONAN — Sorry that the column didn’t get in the papers last week. I’d like to blame it on the computer, but I really can’t. I guess that I am going to have to start paying attention to what buttons I punch. Thanks to all who worked so hard on the Council on Aging’s dinner and...

DIXON — Happy autumn everybody. Some things I like about fall are the colored leaves, re-energized flowers (my spring primroses are back), vegetable harvest (a bumper crop of volunteer squash), no more mosquitoes, and the days are usually cooler. Also, the smoke is bound to go. But, there’s also ...

RONAN — Where has the year gone? When it flies by so fast, does that mean that we are too busy and should slow down? Well, that won’t happen this time of year with Christmas looming in the not to distant future. We will be starting BINGO up again on Friday, Oct. 5 following the noon meal. This...
