Dale Chesher, front, and Ron Howatt of Brussels were
joined by, not shown, Don Chesher and Doreen Cardiff as
well as the musical talents of John Watson and Co. for An
Afternoon of Music at the Brussels United Church on Nov.
25. The event, which featured the two bands to raise
money for the Nicaraguan home build which Watson will be
a part of, netted $600. (Denny Scott photo)
Musical fundraiser held to build a home in NicaraguaThe white stuff has arrived and forme it helps to make it real –Christmas is less than a month away.Oh my – that’s enough to make you
sit up and take notice and perhaps
get a few details in order.
For starters I need to organize the
many, many pictures cluttered all
over the dining room table. For two
years now I’ve been gathering and
copying pictures of my history.
Lately they have been getting into
piles. Pictures of grandparents and
parents of babies and children and
weddings and gatherings. This week
all the pictures will be in books for
my brothers and sons. My goodness
it takes a long time. I’ve really
enjoyed the family resemblances at
different stages of relatives’ lives.
One person can look like a brother, a
niece or a child at their different
stages. So as much as it feels like
I’ve been at this forever, the end is in
sight.
Music and stew from Sunday will
help buy building material in
Nicaragua. Music by John and
Wendy Watson, Peter Pryce, BruceMutton and John Payne as well asDon and Dale Chesher, DoreenCardiff and Ron Howatt had folks
singing along to many familiar
tunes. Donations from the fun
afternoon will help in February to
give someone a home.
The Santa Claus parade is on
Saturday – the unofficial start of
Christmas. A time for the children to
get their list pared down to a
manageable number. For the adults
with them it’s their time to see in the
eyes of innocence, the anticipation,
the hope and the love of this joyous
season on the way. So enjoy.
The Majestic WI of Brussels held
a soup, sandwich and euchre

Enjoy the moments of Advent.
Bye now, Betty G.W.
