Accompanied by Karol and Jim Moller of Crystal Lake, also silver wedding celebrants, Diane and Bob flew to Seattle June 22. The two couples settled in for a stay in a posh con­ dominium apartment, at­ tending the Square Dance convention during the first three days. They went to dancing workshops, and then danced all day, and sometime^ on into the night. Routines iwere added, and the fun oft the activity, plus making new freinds, were all a part of the convention. Mt. Rainier was visited, (driven, not climbed). They went to the highest spot, Paradise lodge, that is open to auto travel. This was not far from the area where climbers had been covered by the ice avalanche, and cameras and reporters were still in evidence. The foursome then went on a five day boat trip on the island waterways to British Columbia, Canada. These waters are similar to the fjords of Norway, having been formed by glacial activity. The steep cliffs added to the sheer beauty of the area. Among places explored were Victoria and Vancouver. Back to Seattle where Diane and Bob's daughter Debbie, who lives in Washington and just graduated from the University of Washington, met them. On to further adventures, such as discovering that Seattle is a gastronomical delight, with the variety and excellence of its restaurants, plus the Rental 9 75 PER MO. • NO installation charge • NEW fully automatic softeners • TWO year option to buy with • FULL rental fee deducted • ONE phone call can answer any questions 312-259-3393 ' 1980 soft\ FOX VALLEY DIVISION street vendors with their tasty delicacies. Pike Street Market on the waterfr had the freshest of fish an the finest of tempting fr for sale, Being a sea crafts and foreign items of all kinds were available. Fourth of July was spent at the Bavarian Village in the Cascade Mountains, overlooking the town of Leavenworth. They stayed at a very authentic chalet, which served continental style. Sunday they went up the mountain on horseback. It took about an hour going up but only half that time coming back down. What with the mountain climbing done earlier, the auto trips, and now on horseback, the mountains had been seen in different perspectives, all memorable. Seeing their daughter Debbie after an absence of two years, put the finishing glow on a grand silver wedding trip for Diane and Bob. May you still be dan­ cing at your golden celebration.

And Anna Brzezinski is recuperating from a broken bone in her shoulder, the result of a fall down stairs, so she was not at the meeting DEEPEST SYMPATHY Prudence Huffman's father died very unex­ pectedly last Friday. He had been in excellent health, and many of his 70 years had been spent in community activity and service. He had been preparing breakfast in his Wisconsin home for his daughter and her family who were visiting from Florida, when he collapsed. Prudence, Art, and children Robbie and Becky, drove up to be with the Hammer family. Services were held Monday July 20. Deepest sympathy is ex­ tended to the Huffmans on this very sad loss. STOLEN Seven railroad ties had been delivered to the McHenry Nunda Library parking area, to be used as a border for the little garden recently started by the sign. Some one must have needed them more, as sometime between Monday evening. July 13 and Tuesday mor­ ning, July 14 they were stolen. I was and am very upset about this. The ties, which had been requested from Fritzsche Industrial park for some years, were delivered two weeks ago and were to be put in position when enough man power was available. Now they are gone. Another setback in trying to make the area more at­ tractive. NORMAL AGAIN For two weeks, Albert and Anita Kunz couldn't quite get used to * the quiet in their household. Children Michael and Heidi spent that time with grampa and gramma Wiser in Marshall, Mich. Also present for them to play with was cousin Jenny Stout. Anita and Albert left to pick up the children Friday, Julv 10. and returned on Sunday Coming into Chicago, they were met by the downpour that flooded many of the underpasses. All went well though, and the past two weeks of peace and quiet are just a memory. Welcome home, Heidi and Mike IMAGE OF THE BEAST A free film will be shown at the First united Pen­ tecostal church in Lakemoor Sunday, July 26 at 6:30 p.m. "Image of the Beast" is the third and last film in the series currently being shown at the church.

CAT KILLED S o m e t i m e T u e s d a y evening, July 14, a frequent visitor to theGurskehome in Lilymoor was the victim of a hit and run driver. The large white cat had been a friend of Mitzi and Skip's Tiger, who had also been killed some time ago, and their other feline family member. Mitzi wanted the unknown owners to be aware of their pet's demise, and that she, with son Robert and neigh­ bor Russ Carlson, gave the white cat a proper burial. FAMILY REUNION The Mentzer family of Lilymoor had a delightful visit from Dottie's two children, Karen and Jim Cox, arriving July 2 from Stowell, Tex. This was 30- year-old Karen's first driving trip out of state, and she made it in 25 hours, which tied her grandfather's record time. Her, 14-year-old brother Jim, as co-pilot, directed the safe trip. Joanna and Heather en- Joyed playing with their older brother and sister. The whole family caught up on the latest news and relived fond memories. They went hiking, swimming, played tennis, and just plain horsed around during the ten day stay. \ The children didn't want Sissy Karen and brother Jimmy to leave, and neither did their mother. But work beckoned, so the vacation had to come to an end. Saying goodbye wasn't easy, but perhaps there will be another meeting next year, God willing.
