I mentioned, this to Wilma Oke
who covers as many night
meetings as I do and we both
thought a car phone would be an
excellent idea for reports too.

Township coil, which meets
on into the wee hours sometimes
and she says there have been
many times when she's driven
home, full of fear that she'll end
up in a snow bank.
So we're both negotiating for
car phones in our next contracts.
Ha ...we don't have contracts.
I didn't really need my car
phone last week when I had my
next experience with the joys. of
winter driving I was going to take
the Expositor van to Hibbert's
ratepayers' meeting but it isn't
much fun to driVe on icy road so I
drove my husband's car.
Just before the other stop sign
on our road, leading to the Dublin
highway, I applied the brakes a
little too forcefully and slid the
two front wheels into the ditch.
My only consolation was that
things likely would have been
more serious if I'd been driving
the van.
I was really luCky that night,
thanks tcr a whole family who
pushed my car out for me.Their
- help...was as immediate as it was
cheerful and I'd like to thank the
Flannagans, all four or five of
them, who pushed my car out.
hope I can pass their good deed
on to someone else.
Of course I was a little late at
the Hibbert meeting and when I
mentioned afterwards to Reeve
Ross McPhail that I'd gone in the
ditch, he said immediately "not
in Hibbert I hope." This was just
after he'd answered questions
from ratepayers' about the
condition of roads in their
township.
Much as I hate to admit it, .my
driving, not McKillop's road
conditions is the problem. But
outside of having a chauffeur to
my night meetings, and I knoW
right now. my husband wouldn'
do it, I don't have much choice
but to drive myself, a little better
and a lot more cautiously.
Readers, please do the same,
