The meeting was concluded
by a brief report on the Labor
Day dance. Most everything, with
the exception of the food, which
will belined up closer to the date,
has been arranged.
At this point a word of
extreme caution is urged for
everyone using the Island Garbage
Dump. Please be very careful not
to dump a car ashtray with a hot
cigarette or any thing else that
might start another fire. Last
Sunday night the Natural
Resources were called to battle a
very bad fire at the dump. Along
with water from their pumper
truck Johnny Budd moved his cat
in to battle the flames which
burned clear across the dump and
luckily was brought under control
before any timber caught fire.
John and Pat Dunlap are
hardly finding time to cook and
eat as they try to keep items
made ahead for the Craft Shows
they are participating in this
summer. Last weekend turned out
weel for them at the Mercer
Island Arts and Craft Show. This
coming weekend they will be
heading for Tacoma and a Show
at Lakewood. After that they will
have a couple of more shows and
then have a bit of a breather
before the fall shows start.
Driving down the low road we
noted that the AI Nagels have the
frame work up and a roof on their
new shop north of the John
Budds. And on the other side the
Jack Cruickshanks are coming
right along with the addition to
their home.
Incidently, Jack and Eileen
were called to California on a very
sad mission. Saturday they
received work that Jack's brother
had suffered a fall and was in a
coma. They made reservations for
the next flight they could get on.
The brother, William had just
recently retired and he and his
wife had gone to their vacation
cabin at Guerneyville, near San
Francisco. While his wife was
unpacking her husband suffered
the fall down an embankment and
onto a raodway where a passing
motorist found him
He died just shortly after Jack
and Eileen arrived never having
regained consciousness after the
fall. The funeral is to be held in
San Fransisco where the couple
made their home.
The Steig Gabrielsens plus
their cat and dog headed north
early last week. Their destination
being Galiano Island in the
Canadian San Juans. From here
they drove to Tsawwassen about
twenty miles or so across the
border. From here they ferried
across to Galiano Island where
they had reservations. They did a
little fishing as they had taken
their own boat along. But mainly
they just beachcombed and
explored.
Leaving the Island they stayed
at Bedwell Harbor where they
bumped into some old friends
from their former home town of
Gig Harbor. Coming via a
different route they ferried from
Swartz Bay through the San Juans
to Anacortes. An invitation uo on
the bridge of the ferry was the
highlight of the homeward bound
voyage. They arrived back on
Harstine Sunday morning after a
very enjoyable trip.
Checking in on some new
residents the Marshall Olsons we
learned they had had wall to wall
people most of last week. At least
with just three usable rooms it
certainly seemed that way.
Visitors included their daughter,
the Goodman family from
Wenatchee, a niece, the Eugene
Lundquist family and some
friends the Sig Hansons from
Longview making a total of 14
including the Olsons themselves.
They also had an aunt and uncle,
the Harry Sutherlands of Port
Orchard drop in during the week.
At this writing they just have
three "leftovers" this week, their
daughter and her two children.
While Patti and Jerry
Ryckman held down the
homeplace this last weekend her
dad, Bud and her two brothers,
Vince and Mike headed for an
outing at Mt. Rainer. Coming
back via Tacoma they spent the
night with Bud's sister. Helen
Franich and her family and took a
drive out to Pt. Defiance on their
way back to the Island.
Monday evening Patti
prepared a gourmet dinner and
invited her sister, Sue, and Chip
Bevers out for the evening,.
Dessert being a little wild
blackberry pie which Patti
and Jerry picked earlier in the day
and Pat transformed into a pie
worthy of traveling a considerable
distance if necessary.
Other news from down
Ballow way is that Celia had a
good share of her family home
over the weekend. Son, Joe, was
down along with a neighbors son
who had just come home after
four years in the service.
And from Shelton son, Dick
and his family. He spent a good
share of time taking care of his
garden which is a real eyestopper.
And coming from Olympia was
daughter, Margaret and family.
Over at the John Hitchcock
home we're sorry to report that
John is still laid up and pretty
miserable. But he says he just as
uncomfortable one place as
another so they have been getting
around a bit anyway.
Last week their oldest
grandson, Marv Carnes, who is
still home on leave until the end
of this month was out for a three
day visit. To correct a previous
error, Marv is headed for King
Cove, Alaska. He has been in New
York for the past two years.
Just prior to coming to the
Island he and a friend had been
up on a camping trip to Lake
Ozette in the northwest corner of
the state.
Over the Fourth ttitchcocks
and their son and daughter and
families all camped on the
southend of the Island known to
many as the Cedars or by its
alternate name to old time
residents, as the Calves Pen.
Last Sunday John and Beulah
Hitchcock took a drive up on the
Canal and stopped in at the Carl
Nattus home to see Aina
Anderson. A family get together
was in progress with most of the
members of the Scott family
present including some cousins'
from California.
A recent drop-in visitor in the
Ballow area was a former Islander
from many years ago. Celia Glaser
reported Harold Rustom of
Olympia was of vintage prior to
that of the Glasers. He stopped
there to visit and also at the
Hitchcock home to recall the
good old days of early Island era.
The Jim Lohrers enjoyed
having Naomi's sit•r, Ada and her
husband the Vern Engwalls of
Vancouver as their guests. They
all took a trip to the North end to
see the newest development, but
gave it up when the road didn't
look too good. Coming home
they dropped in on Marie
Jacobson for a surprise. For it was
Vern's folks that Marie and Oscar
first became acquanted with and
stayed with when they arrived in
this country many, many years
ago. The group spent a couple of
enjoyable hours recalling bygone
days.
The U-pickers at the Campbell
Loganberry patch are really
finding the competition keen. A
more accurate description of the
present situation would no doubt
be-"deer picker".
Good news from the Gay
Williams on Sunset Hill, their
horse "Deep Question" recently
came in second place at
Longacres. Congratulations folks.
