f~ Living at the Luther
as summer wanes, we
still have some vacation-
ers who come to fish and
or rest, but the fish have
escaped most of the
fishermen, but they re-
mained persistant in
their efforts even while
getting wet in their
attempts. The rain con-
tinues to tall, and we can
be thankful that the
most, if not all of the
grain has been harvested
in this area.
We were-so happy to
