THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 2001. FROM BRUSSELS By Lee Chesterfield The St. Valentine's Day celebra- tion really surpassed itself this year. The day before was spent in mak- ing paper hearts, cupids complete with bow and arrow. Then the Valentine's day luncheon, catered by JR's, was chicken, wedgie potatoes, (for which they are famous) and coleslaw. Many residents had invited rela- tions and friends. In the afternoon the Huron Strings entertained. They were as always, excellent and we hope to see them again soon. As to the weather (which is every- one's premier topic) we mustn't complain about the cold and the snow. Why shouldn't we? - Well, we Lodge hosts supper Morning Star Rebekah Lodge ham supper had a good attendance. Euchre results were: high lady, Anna Cunningham; high man, Ken Barbour; low lady, Mary Huether; low man, Geo. Inglis; most lone hands, Emmerson Mitchell, Helen Gallop; most zeros, Mary Bryans, John Brown. Tally card winners were also drawn. Door prizes were won • by Sarah Stephenson, Muriel Whitfield and Allan Edgar while the 50/50 winner was Ken Barbour. haven't had a flu epidemic and that is probably due to the cold tempera- tures. We certainly can complain about flooded basements and slippery roads not to mention closed high- ways. But just think — we are approaching March and that means spring is nearly here! Huronlea has a new doctor. He is Dr. Martin Bokhout from Clinton and we welcome him aboard. We received a letter from Dr. Woldnik paying that he missed all the residents and the excellent staff. He is practising in Parry Sound and that is "good fishing country" so he is sure to be happy. See • you next month when just maybe we'll be counting the tulips. Well, we can have lots of weather conversation this week with snow, sleet, rain and sun all in the offering for Brussels. The weather certainly changes fast from snowbanks to bare pavements. Yes, Mother Nature rules. There were several folks in London on Saturday dreaming of boats and log cabins and new lures V fi V I .44 4 V tR V and fishing poles. The Cottage, Boat and Fishing Show at Western Fairgrounds was even more enjoy- able as the snow whipped about keeping winter very evident. Summer was but a dream. 5Rs is in need of your good stuff.
