Mt. Zion area will welcome fall this week. Fall started Sept. 22, it is starting to look like fall with corn and soybeans being harvested. Gardens are about finished; everything could use a good rain. Haven’t noticed much color in the trees yet; just need watering and some rain.

Pappenville Picnic was Sept. 24. Fun started at 1 p.m. B Hwy. was open from Rich Hill.

Sorry to learn Judy Piepmier spent some time in the hospital, not eye related. She is home and doing good. Still smiling and keeping Terry in line.

Wanda Rector’s daughter, Debbie, from Springfield visited her mother helping Wanda entertain her Sunday School class. Debbie is writing a book and letting them all have a pick, sounds great.
