March 2024

By the Ides of March, the population of the park will be diminished. It is just the way of things and after all the years we have watched it happen we know how it goes, and it is okay.


I looked at the calendar and noticed it was Bill Stilson's birthday. Bill is gone now. He and his wife Kay were close friends of ours when we were in Magnolia. Kay is back in Iowa and we miss them both very much. I know she keeps track of us through the blog and we check in on each other once in a while...So Hi! Kay. Thinking of you today.

This is going to be one of those days where I will write randomly about whatever pops into my mind. The daily happy hour: Some people have a misconception about Bill and Sandi's happy hour. Everyone is welcome. It takes place from 4:00 to 5:00pm daily. Bring your own drink. No politics or gossip. It has been my experience that the knowledge obtained is priceless. You will find answers to nearly every question you may have. Some days are a history lesson of the park, while others are local places to find the best food. Somedays we just laugh...and laugh from the funny stories of our youth. I really enjoy happy hour.

Looking through old files in my laptop. Lable on the file was Articles of Interest. Here is a sample. Number 17 puzzled me a bit.

For boys and men.
