| My favorite view of the house through the trees and brush on the road |
Mike
re-injured his tendon on the trip, so the other day as we started our afternoon walk, he dropped out. It was another hot afternoon, and Nellie said she
didn’t really care to go either, so as we headed down the lane, it was just Bess and
me. Because Bess is really keyed to Mike, I thought she might decide to stay
with him, but apparently her love of exploration carried her along.

| From Plank's field |
When
we got to the road, I decided to double back along the edge of Plank’s field
for slightly different views of the farm. It seems to me the rapeseed fields are rapidly
changing now, losing some of their bright luster. The little flowers are
gradually dropping their petals. I’m anxious to see the next phase.

Anyway,
when the time came to leave the field, I wondered aloud if I could make it down
the bank to the lane. “Sure you can,” said Bess confidently. “Just follow me.”
So down we went, Bess ahead and me behind, following a gently-sloping deer
trail to the lane.

Today
I will present a one-time $500 monetary award at Lewiston High School in the
name of my late sister, Harriet Walrath Reece. This award was made possible
through memorial donations to Chapter BL, P.E.O., in Harriet’s name. KW

A beautiful tribute to Harriet - I am glad to hear this
Hi Mary Jane!
Yes, the family was pleased that donations to Chapter BL P.E.O. in Harriet's name totaled enough for a dedicated one-time scholarship in her name.
