A Note from Betty Memories - memories - that’s all that is left of Christmas 1999.1 hope you had a good time surrounded by loved ones. Lots of visitors were in the village, great decorations everywhere you looked and lots of catching up with old friends. It really is a very special time. A good memory for me was the Optimist wagon ride, a beautiful winter night, festive lights, good company, bales of hay and Christmas music. Thanks to the organizers and workers from the club. You’ve got a great tradition going. 2000 - that sure is strange to write but I’m sure we’ll soon get used to it. I hope you watched some of the TV coverage of the new century celebrations, folks enjoying the moment as community. We really are all a lot alike. Keeping track of the time lines as the New Year started around the world made you realize the importance of the global society, the continuous coverage as each new spot of geography joined the new century was a memory maker for me. I hope you were part of the parties and dances and firecrackers or shotguns that heralded in the year 2000. Now it’s time to read that book or clean out the drawers and closets. No more need to hustle. Christmas is past. Bye now, Betty G. Anyone with stories or news about the Brussels community contact Betty at 887-9231.
