RETURN FROM DELLS The Lovergine family on Flower Street recently returned from a week at the Wisconsin Dells and must have had a super time because they took off a day early to get there and stayed a day later than planned. On the way up through Dane County, they ran into some rough weather that gave them quite a scare. After pulling over into a ditch because of tornado warnings they waited out the storm and made it to the Dells for a non-stop good time. Their children, Joey and Tina had a great time at Storybook Gardens, played Skee-Ball, rode the "Ducks" and saw all the other local attractions, but even Sue agreed that the highlight was the new "Tidal Wave". Joe brought along his newest toy, a video recorder and taped their entire adventure. They all hated to leave all the excitement behind and look forward to going again. BIRTHDAYS Jessica Harrington turned three years old July 6, and received among many gifts, a Cabbage Patch Kid, complete with stroller, carrier and a bike for the two of them. Sue Lovergine and Melanie Harazin helped Sue's sister, Pam West, celebrate her twentieth birthday with a nachos platter and 7UP party at midnight. Sue's husband Joe (never without his video) recorded the private party. We're getting quite used to Joe and his camera now; it doesn't phase us as much as it used to. tnHrr '̂h PRE SEASON COAT SALE 20%-33% OFF ENTIRE STOCK OF NEW FALL/WINTER COATS FOR MISSES, JUNIORS, PETITES AND HALF-SIZE WOMEN I £ A few people were in the j^udience to complain about people disturbing the peace by ^Stammering on a car.
