DIXON — Let’s hear it for the rains of spring. If you’re not flooding, you probably appreciate them. I like a gradual approach to the summer heat. Having grown up in Seattle and Juneau, Alaska, I love that Western Montana rains don’t go on for days (or weeks), and the flowers just thrive.
My peonies are at their peak and the bleeding hearts are on their way out. It’s time to fill in with so many choices of annual plants and herbs available in many places nearby. I am hopefully going to plant my favorite cherry tomatoes (Sun Gold) this weekend. Surely we are done with frost.
The Dixon Senior Center was the place to be last Tuesday, as it is the election headquarters for our area. It was my first time as one of the election judges, a good opportunity to enjoy community service while meeting old friends and realizing how many more people are “out there” that I’d never known. Fellow seniors Delene Tufly, Connie Boyd and Mary Cole (younger generation), manned the polls for the duration. We all learned all the things that go on and why they go, that enable us to vote.
Thanks to those who took advantage of this privilege.
With comings and goings of visitors, remember the Dixon Senior Center is available for evening meals at 6 p.m. on Mondays and lunch every on Thursday. All ages are welcome to come for a delicious meal, and no cleanup.
