Our thoughts and prayers are with all the folks who aren't feel- ing too perky these days. How blessed we are to live in a coun- try where we have such good medical facilities and knowl- edgeable doctors and nurses. Sounds like everyone who went to Music in the Fields had a good time too.

Congratulations to the Orr's on their 50th Anniversary. Dianne was Provincial President of the WI a few years ago. Ladies, hope you remembered the WI meeting Wednesday evening. We are looking forward to hearing Nikki Reid's informa- tion on landscaping. LUCKNOW NEWS Children get back to school this week in Lucknow Ruth Dobrensky The children are back to school this week, so remember to keep an eye out for them on the sidewalks, they don't always think, so you have to think for yourself and them. The Lucknow Rumoli Club met recently for our monthly evening of fun and games. I was unable to attend as my great-nephew Nick was visiting with me. I always enjoy our evenings but you can't be everywhere all the time. In fact I had Nick for 10 days. We did have a good time and besides the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame, we went to St. Thomas for the Railway Museum which was also great. Our trip up to the Grey Roots Museum near Owen Sound, was terrific. The King Tut exhibit is wonderful and if you've never had the opportunity to see an exhibit anywhere else, like the Cairo Museum and the Valley of the Kings in Egypt, like I fortunately have, it's worth the trip. They had many wonderful artifacts on dis- play, including a dummy mummy of King T'ut. The heritage village is also worth a visit and the cost to get in is not prohibitive. We had a very late lunch in Meaford at the Leaky Canoe and spent sometime at the huge Meaford Retail Outlet before heading home. We spent time at the go-cart track near Kin- cardine, visited the beaches at Point Clark and Goderich, includ- ing a picnic on the beach, flew a kite, dug for worms and tried our hand at fishing, played board games, made some gifts for his mom with stones and shells found on the beach, etc. etc. All in all, we had a good time, I must admit though, I was glad to see his par- ents come and take him home. I'm not as young as I used to be and a 14 year-old who never stops talk- ing can be very tiring. It's good to see the town quiet again after the chaos of all those people and vehicles in town for Music in the Fields starting the Wednesday before, what a mess getting all those campers into town. Nick and I watched the vehi- cles coming in until almost 10 p.m. I was glad there was no emergency, as it would have been a disaster if there had been. It's always great when everyone can have such a great time and all the businesses do so well, but it is good to get back our peace and quiet and lack of traffic jams. For anyone interested, there will be a Living a Healthy Life free workshop starting on Sept. 14 at the Lucknow Presbyter- tian Church. For further info and to register call 1-855-463- 5692 or email info@swselfman- agement.ca. They will cover all sorts of health needs and should be most informative.
