Just over a year ago, a good friend asked if I would write a story for the TV Log.
I declined because, as I told her, I am not a writer. I don’t have the discipline or background to be a writer. The only thing I ever had published was a two-word review of Rita’s Dyson vacuum cleaner. “ It sucks “. Besides, it’s too hard and I’m lazy. She persisted, so I said I would give it a shot. ONE TIME ONLY!!! Well, I’m still lazy, I still lack discipline, and it’s harder than I thought. Much harder. It’s also addictive. So here we are. Continue reading →

It started around coffee, three women talking.

Road Maps and Side View Mirrors

Posted on January 20, 2022 by webadmin

Remember road maps? Those giant pieces of paper that re-folded so neatly?
They showed the roads ahead leading from hither to yon.You could stop in any gas station and pick one up for the state you were in. All while the guy pumped your gas, checked your oil and cleaned your windshield. Nowadays you turn on your GPS and listen to your choice of annoying voices telling you to “ turn left in thirteen point six miles “ or “ Hey stupid, you missed your turn. Go back and take a right.” Continue reading →

A Fantasy

Posted on January 13, 2022 by webadmin

Use your imagination.

Midnight. Full Moon.

The barnyards for miles around are slowly emptying. The word has been passed for weeks. Tonight is the much awaited performance of the annual barnyard ballet. This year, Paulina Porkiskova will be the Prima Ballerina. She, and the rest of the passel are already in their ten tens. Pig size for tu tus. There are now several hundred animals anxiously waiting around the lake. There is a hush as the show is about to start. Continue reading →

EVERYBODY NEEDS A SCRATCHING POST

Posted on January 11, 2022 by Jackie Deal

By Jackie Deal
Amber is lost! Disappeared! Not to be found. I’ve looked everywhere. High. Low. Her favorite hidey hole. No Amber. The water heater repairman-prone across the kitchen floor, head under the sink- mumbles “I didn’t let the cat out. She’s not out.” With all the things Amber is, she’s not an outdoor cat. She’s a beautiful tuxedo cat, black and white, sensitive, independent but Amber is not an outdoor cat.
I frantically begin to call, “KITTY! KITTY!” She has never, ever answered me before but I try anyway. “KITTY! KITTY!” ‘’meow-ow-ow.” “KITTY! KITTY!” “meow-ow-ow”. She’s answered! I start to trace the pitiful meow. The living room? No. Bedroom? No. Kitchen? No. Aw, the bathroom. I look under the sink, behind the toilet, in the linen closet. Continue reading →

Bob Feiler was able to salvage enough wood from the washout to build a temporary bridge. No excuses now.

Kitchen Stove & Oven

Posted on January 8, 2022 by Dick Shanahan

The gas has been turned off to this appliance. We have had members tell us about smelling propane in the area. When we are ready to start using the kitchen and stove again, it will be inspected and the gas turned back on.

Sheds

Posted on January 7, 2022 by webadmin

Here are a couple of pictures to illustrate the need for airflow under your sheds. This shed will need to be replaced because there was no airflow, and the floor has rotted away. Take a look at your sheds and if there is no airflow, please get the problem fixed before your shed looks like this one.

Bridge out on Timber Valley Trail

Posted on January 4, 2022 by webadmin

We had snow and now lots of rain. So much that the bridge between mile markers 0.9 and 1.0 was washed out. Please avoid this area. I will put some signs out today. Not sure when it will be replaced. Happy New Year.
