JUNE!


CORN! and great Chili, dips and fiery beans with mellow potato salad.  What a feast was to be had on Saturday at Larry's place!
We were a little late ( the sign said 4:00 on) because Charles works till almost 6:00, but it was fine with all the others. 


Arrival

Mary and Harry with Connie

Warren Golding, Chemainus newsman 

we all voted for pineapple in chocolate instead of s'mores! mmmm

Larry's old friend, Warren Golding came with Connie and their little Yorkie.  It was great to meet them and we talked informally about Chemainus, it's future and how we fit into it.




Warren didn't know that we did not receive his paper and will put his CHEMAINUS COURIER in the news box for park model  owners and RV guests to peruse.  It is a free local paper and comes with all the news for a month at a time.  I have picked one up every
month since we came to Chemainus, as it deals with local items of importance to our local area and covers local events.
  This was Larry Duckworth's first "annual" Corn feed and I'd suggest that if you want a great time on a beautiful evening in the beginning of summer NEXT year that you make a real effort to attend!

I'd like to put in a plug here for an event happening on July 5 at the St. Michael All Angels church garden at 10:30 a.m. till 2:00 p.m.  The ladies of St Michael's  are hosting a STRAWBERRY TEA, which consists of a large helping of strawberry shortcake and whipping cream.  Included in the modest price is a choice of coffee, tea or juice. Since we redesigned the garden between the church and Willow Street Cafe we haven't had opportunity to use it publicly, so this will be our first chance!  Please feel welcome to take a look and have a refreshing break as you peruse the street Market happening that day. We will have tables set up in the garden and under the shady birch and oak trees that have stood over 80 years. Like the sign says ( and means)  COME   IN  AND  SET  A  SPELL!
 Will be posting signs too, for a reminder.

'sall for now!
