Last week the better half and
finally won the vacation weather
sweepstakes. After a couple Of
years of picking the only wet, sub
zero weeks in several long hot
'summers for or eagerly awaited
holidays, last week we struck it
rich.
"I'll be in on Monday if the
weather's rotten," I said on
Thursday, hedging • my bets, a
little. (You learn to do that when
you have a track record like mine
for picking vacation time.' I
remember a week of solid rain in
our 3' x 6' tent in Algonquin Park,
ten damp days in Nova. Scotia and
tiAto bloody awful weeks early'last
September.)
But it was all unnecessary. We
had five gloriouk summer like
days off over the Easter weekend
and three passable early spring
days before winter hit on Satur-
day and Sunday. That assortment
for a mid April holiday is pretty
good. •
Our latest holiday proved to us
that you don't have to go away to
really have a vacStion.
It's a thrill for somebody whb's
away all day and some nights at '
work to just stay home' and do
.what you want to do for a week..
It's nice to vacation in- Huron
County.. . . thousands di' people
spend hundreds ",of-dollars doing
just that every, summer. And we
live here. So, ifinflationls' hitting
hard at your vacationbudget this
,year, do like we 'did and stay
home. You can see a beautiful
bed& at Lake Huron, an interest-
ing museum in Goderich, stimula-
ting.' plays atide musicians in
Stratford. There's the Falls and
good foOd at ',13enmillei., quaint
stores and good food in' Bayfield.
And you cart "see a-lovely old.
Victorian streetscape, don'
laugh, right here in beautiful
downtown Seaforth. Try looking
at your hOmetown and the PlaCeS
close by with the eyes of a tourist.
.there's a lot to offer around
here without taking expensive,
exhausting trips.
You sleep better in your' own
familiar bed than in any 'ritzy
hotel. You can cook exotic food
and favourite meals in your own
kitchen for:a lot less,than it costs
to gxperiment in a restaurant.
I like far away place's as well as
anybody, but when the weather's
good and you're tired out, there's,
no place like a week at home for a
holiday.
A GOOD VIEW OF THE HOTEL — The hole that was knocked into the wall of the
Pricegard store by a transport truck early Tuesday morning opened up a view of the
Queen's Hotel across the street. 'The truck's overturned trailer had to be emptied
of a full load of salt before it could be set upright and the rest of the truck and cab
removed from inside the store. The huge truck was finally pulled out abqut 9 a.m.

Here's the big chance for
everyone out there to tell us what
they think of us. It's the annual
contest, sponsored by Dominion
Textiles and the Canadian
Community Newspaper Associa-
tion in which readers are invited
to tell "What my hometown
paper means to me,"
There's a prize for the best
entry, $400 and a 'gold medal,
There' will be lots of competi-
tion for the winning entry -
readers froM CCNA member
papers all across Canada, but it
wouldn't be impossible for a
Seaforth person to win. A reader
of the Kinc-ardine News, right
next door to us in Bruce-County,.
won the 1975 award.
The contest judges, say they
aren't looking for "excessively
high praise for the local weekly"
but they want to took at "the'
judgment and understanding by
readers of the fnnction of the
weekly." Those of us who work
on weeklies aren't too sure about
that ourselves, but I personally
would love' to read your opinions.
,After the letters are ,pUblished
in the Expositor, we'll forward
them to CCNA for judging
Entries have to be received at our
office in Seaforth by Friday, May
