Blankets, Jackets, or things to spare?
Each year folks from the Christian Conference Center gather clean blankets, jackets, warm clothing and usable items to take to an orphanage in Mexico.
Do you have some jackets the kids or grandkids have outgrown? Blankets taking up space in the cupboard? Give Lane a call and they’ll take them across the border where they are really appreciated. Monetary donations are welcomed too.

Have you Winterized?
Looks like our temperature is dropping with the possibility of our first snow flakes heading our way.
It was very sad to walk in to a cabin last year and see the toilet in half with a block of ice that had cracked the bowl. It’s a beautiful day to head up to your cabin to make sure the water is off, and have a fresh supply of Antifreeze.
Not able to get up? There are some local handymen and contractors that could get the job done for you, too.
I’m glad to get your questions answered anytime.

Rain Report from the Mountain Top
For those of you who might be wondering how much rain we’ve had. Here is the scoop. Gary and Linda Lockard came up to celebrate his Birthday this week. (Happy Birthday Gary!!!).
He is a gadget guy and when I saw his post I thought some of you Mountain News subscribers might be interested in Gary’s weather report from Bailey Meadow Road this morning:
“Good morning, So far 4.34 inches and it’s still raining. We have a professional Davis PRO 2 weather station. What a great soft rain.”
