I have been told a few times to be careful what you wish for, but I have really been wishing and hoping for rain as my well was nearly dry. Well, I got my wish and now we are flooded in, but I have water in my well.

I’m not sure how everyone else is dealing with all the heat and dry weather for the past few weeks, but I’m ready for rain, lots of rain. My well is about dry and it’s quite nerve wracking. I don’t even dare to mow, as I am afraid hitting a rock will spark the dry grass and cause a huge fire. Be safe everyone.

With all the dry weather I hope everyone is taking extra care with possible fires. It can be something as innocent as a cigarette butt, a piece of glass in dry tinder or a spark from a brush hog hitting a rock. Be safe out there, and be extra careful. Our animals need extra looking after in these hot days as well, so just a reminder, leave lots of fresh water for them and give them shelter out of the heat. News from Naselle: The Finnish-American Folk Festival is again being held in Naselle on July 27, 28 and 29. Bring the whole family and...
Home again and loving it. This trip added nearly 7,000 miles to my car’s odometer, and I have gained a new housemate. My brother Dave is here to stay, and my sister and I are very happy to have him. We drove back to Floodwood, Minn., visited Duluth and Lake Superior, got his essentials packed up into a U-Haul truck (we packed as he has had a recent hip replacement) and drove through some beautiful country both ways, but none as beautiful as here. As most of you know by now, I love home. Wahkiakum County has one more, happy resident for the c...

Another really busy week. Last Friday we celebrated my oldest son’s 50th birthday with lots of surprises for him. His two younger brothers met him on the golf course and he was totally dumbfounded. They hadn’t been together in two years. Another friend also arrived from Oregon to make it a foursome. In the meantime, his wife was decorating a warehouse with black and gold decor, a catered dinner and many more family and friends awaited his arrival. Such a fun day, plus I had five of my children to visit with all weekend. On Saturday, the whole f...
Well, I made it to California last Thursday in 11 hours, visited a few minutes with family, and slept a few hours. Got up on Friday and drove to Corning to spend the night in a motel 30 minutes from Chico where my granddaughter’s graduation took place at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday morning. Hot and blinding sun in the stadium. It is always so satisfying to see your grandchild completing a task that they chose for themselves. Madeline Nicole Fredrickson will be teaching Math at a middle school in Chico next year. This week will be a full one. My s...
