’Til Next Time | Brightwater Bazaar lunch is a bargain

This is something I’d jotted down a couple of weeks ago, and now I forget why: “Yes, Sam Walton and I will stoop over to pick up a penny!”

I wore one of my sister’s coats all the time I was up north. She just amazes me, and another friend that I volunteer with is 82 years old so no way will I dread the 80s now that I know what they can be like.

After emergency room, hospital, surgery and convalescence, I think that Martin will make every effort to stay on top of that dirt bike, not under it.

The Brightwater Methodist Bazaar is shaping up and opens this morning at a.m. We decided at the last meeting to leave the lunch price at $5 again this year.

It’s a choice of beans or soup and, of course, cornbread and cobbler goes with that. I’ll see you there.

I believe black walnuts are going to be scarce this year, according to my trees anyway. Must have been the weather.

Niva Weston flew in to spend a few days with Betty Weston and her family. Ted and Dion were very close and so are thetwo sisters-in-law. I was privileged to attend a small gathering for a fish fry and greet Niva. Betty is a fisherman and loves to share them.

I’ve seen the big blue heron at the low water bridge twice this week.

The branch water runs underground and keeps the pool still and clear. That means the minnows are becoming large and making a virtual banquet for him. We sure could use some rain to get the branch running again.

The Brightwater United Methodist women report they really enjoyed the district meeting at Eureka Springs. Seven women attended.
