Autumn weather now upon us Hi everyone! Have you noticed the colors changing in the tree leaves, and the longer, cooler evenings? Autumn is definitely upon us. Due to the inclement weather, our patio party was held indoors. This didn't dampen our spirits however. The Stratford Old Tyme Band performed many vibrant tunes for us. Everyone enjoyed the beat and many danced. Juice, veg- gies and dip were served after the performance. Barbecued ham, baked pota- toes, and fresh salad were served for supper. . We would like to welcome Niki White to our home. Niki is ii co-op student from SDHS. Nice to see your smil- ing face and helping hands around here.
