Our sympathy to the family and friends of Beulah Stewart who passed away Oct. 28 at the age of 89 years. Beulah will be sadly missed by all who knew her.
This past weekend we went back to standard time. It makes quite a difference in the evenings as it now gets dark around 5 p.m. but the mornings are better.
Last Saturday afternoon we had quite a little snow fall. I guess it is just a reminder that winter is just around the corner.

Hunting season got off to a poor start this past weekend with the rain on Sunday. Some of the people I was talking to were saying that the deer were very scarce.
Last week I saw a pileated woodpecker in the trees on my front lawn. They are sure beautiful birds.
Last Thursday evening I made a start at getting back to my routine by going to play darts in Otter Lake. I got along pretty well.
This coming Saturday is Remembrance Day. Don’t forget to wear a poppy and remember the soldiers who sacrificed their lives for our freedom. There are ceremonies in most places. Hopefully the weather will be nice and there will be good turnouts.
There was another shooting over the weekend in a church in Texas. It seems that we are really not safe anywhere lately. Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the victims.
Happy birthday to Angela Krose on Nov 10, to Sylvia P. Hodgins on Nov. 11, to Robert Black on Nov. 12 and Gail Tracy on Nov. 14.
