NATURE WALK Evelyn Carter and her daughter Janice were invited by Julie Stumpf to go on the Nature Walk at the Volo Bog last Saturday afternoon. This was 'Evelyn and Jan's first time at the Bog, so they were very impressed with the varied and unusual plants which have not changed in this spongey area for thousands of years. Julie's sister Marie had overheard Evelyn speaking of nature walks, and passed the information on to Julie, who then made the arrangements to go, with mother Anne doing the driving. Adding to others' happiness makes this world a nicer place to live. GROUND BREAKING Maggie Dunnagan, pur­ chasing agent, and Patrick Martin of Lakemoor, were among our area employees who took part in the ground breaking celebration June 29, of Chroma Corporation, a company with roots in Fritzsche Industrial Park. Part of the plant was destroyed by fire this past winter. Tliere were several guests of note, who played significant roles in making this rebuilding possible, with the resulting growth in the industrial life of the area. Pizza and champagne were enjoyed by all. DRIVING AGAIN Bill Kmetz of Lakemoor has undergone a great deal of pain these past six weeks. Two weeks before back surgery at the McHenry Hospital May 26, he was in such pain that he was hardly able to walk, with the resulting loss of nerve response in one leg. Under the watchful eyes of wife Betty and sons Michael and John, Bill is now driving and slowly resuming other ac­ tivities. Never know how good it is to be healthy until one has to endure disability and pain. Glad you're mobile again, Bill. ^ BRIEF VISIT Ann and Paul Starzyk, former long time residents of Lakemoor, drove up from their home in Prim, Ark. to pick up some drapery materials for their business, and stopped in to say hello to some of their friends and neighbors. Hugs and a few minutes of conversation were shared at the library, where Paul immediately took stock of the lack of draperies on the office windows, which he and Ann will provide as soon as dimensions are forwarded. So good to see old friends. IF ONLY "If only," that very sad statement, was a part of a tragic occurrence early Saturday morqing, June 23. Jean Ran­ Ringwood: Early settler provided scenic area for future generations dolph, a friend from Holiday Hills, had asked me to care for Missy, their small black friendly dog, while she and her family spent the week in Wisconsin.; Missy had been with us in the past, so there was ho problem for her to stay in our screen house. Somehow, with a dog's determination, she worried our sliding screen door open and wandered out onto Lily Lake? Rd., where unbeknownst to me, she was struck by a speeding vehicle. I was awakened by the sound of voices and lights of two cars by our home at 3 a.m. to discover Missy had been killed. A young man, finding her body, had checked her collar an<) called Jean and Ross. He, too, knew the pain of losing a pet. v If only I had checked the screen house door GOD BLESS {•If you have ever traveled in {&e area of Ringwood and Mc- C&illom Lake roads in the fall of tfce year, you no doubt have ipticed the beautifully colored maple trees. You might like to biow those trees were originally brought from Vermont. This bit ef information was brought out £ a conversation with Mrs. Rmily (Smith) Turner, grand­ daughter of John Weir Smith, an early settler of McHenry County. Mrs. Turner and her daughter were recent , visitors in the Christopher home and she told how her grandfather traveled to Vermont and brought back the seedlings. Her grandmother set out the trees and kept them watered; and this was prior to 1900. Mrs. Turner was born in 1896 and presently lives in Lincoln, HI. The house in which the Art Christophers live, was built by Mrs. Turner's father in 1900. The original structure was moved from the foundation and the present house built in its place. It was most interesting to talk with Mrs. Turner and learn of the changes made in remodeling when the property was owned by Frank Howard and known as Hickory Creek Farm.
