Mt. Zion area appreciated the April showers we got Friday and Saturday, glad we missed the storms that other areas got. The farmers have been busy planting corn; some fields are up, the wheat is pretty and green. Now days wheat grows lot shorter than when I was a kid, no amber waves anymore. The timber is getting leaves, the flowering trees are beautiful.

Wanda Rector enjoyed her grandson and family from St. Louis this past week.

Over at the Robin Siegismund Farm, Belle is still excited over the baby chickens, she decided her career will be a chicken heard dog and let Petey be a cow herd dog, Speck just wants to be Mabel’s dog. Robin is crocheting with a little hook and making pretty things. Mabel is thinking about making a garden and enjoying the little people.
