There are still a few gremlins in the flower beds out front, but for the most part they are pretty much gone. It will be interesting to see what shows up on all the entrance doors around here now.
My sister Jeannette May and I watched the parade Saturday evening from the corner. We enjoyed seeing all the little urchins having so much fun in their cute costumes and collecting treats that were being tossed out from the floats.
One of my little urchins, Alivia Hicks and Jeannette's Tayten and Tommy Thompson were among these urchins and we enjoyed watching them. Alivia and her parents, Kelsey and Jayson stopped in later where I had treats for them.
The table was filled at the Coffee Chat Hour on Thursday, I stopped in, but had to leave to see Dr. Hartung who was seeing his patients on Thursday. They seemed to be having a pretty good chat time without me. Can't understand that.
Jeannette May and I worked at St. Michael's Harvest Supper, Thursday evening and enjoyed the supper with some of our children, afterwards. Jeannette's daughter Barby and Barry Matthews joined her and my son Dann and Wendy Lepper and their daughter Jessy and Marcus Oldroyd who ate with me and when Dann and Wendy finished their work detail, my son Ralph Lepper was working also, but didn't eat till later.
When I stopped in to see Helen Reed, her great grandchildren were helping her make apple sauce. Rylee, Dalanie, and Gage Pepper were all there to help their great grandmother.
Helen said that she was in Williamsport for a doctor's appointment, Wednesday.
Maxine Shedden took her mother Irma Earley for a doctor's appointment in Troy this last week. Afterwards they took time for lunch while out.
Irma enjoyed the special All Saints service at church on Sunday, After the service she had lunch at the Iron Skillet Restaurant with her daughter Maxine and Davis Shedden and her great grandson Jacob and Susan Shedden.
Kathy Temple reported that three people attended bingo on Monday night this last week. LaVonne McNett was the "Big" winner. She said LOL!
Kathy and her sister Bonnie Vanemon had a busy weekend. They moved Kathy's nephew Chadd to Williamsport. On Saturday they moved the big stuff with help from some of Chadd's friends.
Sunday, they moved small stuff and finished setting up his apartment.
Last Thursday, Carol Brown reported that her granddaughters Cheyenne and Haylee had supper with her. She said they had a very good visit.
Saturday evening Carol said that she watched the Halloween Parade and later that night was at the Moose for their Halloween Party, Carol commented that the band was good and also said that she won first place for costumes which surprised her as there were many neat costumes there.
Carol was dressed as a witch and the judges informed her that it was her witch's "cackle" that got her first place.
I guess that means that we have a "Resident Witch" now!
Jessy Herman reported that recent callers were Max and Janet Webster from Benton, AK. They were in the area because of the passing of their brother-n-law, Gary Worden from Penn State.
Jessy's cousin Kathy from Elmira also came to see Jessy this last week and her niece Kim Kendall. They also called on her one day last week.
On Tuesday last week, Frances Kobbe's son Ron Kobbe was here to run some errands for her. Afterward he treated her to a nice car ride around the countryside.
Wednesday, Steve Bastion drove Frances for an eye appointment with Dr. Rook in Canton.
When I stopped to see Charlotte Tillotson, she was at ProCare, but her daughter Faye Pepper, with granddaughters, Rylee and Emma Pepper were there doing some chores for her.
Looks like another beautiful day again. A great day to get out to vote!
