The Spillway ROARS!


Folks you've got to talk a moment to drive by the spillway. When you get there, stop , roll your windows down a listen. Better yet, get out of the vehicle for a short stroll ( I'll wave at you ;) ). The spillway is just roaring! That wet, sloppy snow has made the lake fill and the spillway is really doing it's job.










My little bridge over the creek is holding on for now, but shortly after this photo was taken water began running over...hopefully it holds on till the water subsides!

Lions Club Welcomes people to Wolseley

Saturday evening April 22nd the Wolseley Lions Club are really doing a great service. They have invited people new to town and long term residents to a "Welcome" night. My family is really looking forward to the event and we are looking to establish some new relationships and rekindle a few old ones as well. I'll post on the fun we had after the event.

Heritage Fair...Coming to Wolseley Schools

The students of Wolseley will be participating in a Heritage Fair on April 28th. Established along the lines of a Science Fair, this project is a great opportunity for students to learn about history and pratice presenting skills.

Like many other former Wolseley students I loved the great Science Fairs of the 1970's. Those fairs were initiated by K.C. Kapila and we all reaped the benefits of his leadership and mentorship.

Hopefully, Hertitage Fairs will have the same positive impact.

Heavy, Wet, Slushy Snow hits Wolseley

Ok, I know I am stating the obvious but...yep there it is, heavy, wet, slushy snow. So break out the rubber boots before you head outside.
I walked my daughter Audrey to dance this afternoon and gosh was it sloppy. We only walk a block to the Town Hall but by the time we sloshed our way there her dance tights bore a tell-tale splattered pattern.
In this kind of weather walking is my choice of transportation, but if you must drive, be careful.

I'm Back

After a bit of a sabbatical from blogging I'm back in the saddle. Check the site often as I will be trying to keep it updated. And from time to time I may post an audio blog, just click on them and you'll hear me comment on various subjects.

And folks feel free to comment on posts...with blogging the more the merrier!
