I think we can call this a perfectly splendid day! Sunshine all day long and not a sprinkle to be had. Quite a change. Fred was saying at supper time we haven't had a fire in the wood stove for several days now. Usually about that time we have had a small fire to take the chill off during the evening.

You may have noticed on the Comments Page that Doug Hamilton has a runaway kayak. Keep an eye out for it - it's yellow and about 12 ft. long, and apparently floated off. Give Doug a call, 563-2177 or his son Bill, 563-2165, if you spot it. This seems to be the season for lost and found kayaks. Last year it seemed to be life preservers that got away . . . the year before it was docks.

I want to show you one of the items I inventoried at the historical society Sunday. We believe it to be an early pull toy. It is metal, probably tin, and very rusted. One wheel is missing, and we aren't sure if the figure of the young girl was originally part of it or not. It seems to be the same material and age, and there are spots that look as if she might have once stood on the wagon, soldered in place. It is only about six inches long - the doll is about six inches tall. We have no record of who this toy belonged to or who donated it, unfortunately.
