Keep in your heart and in your prayers all our stars who need that card, visit, phone call and that daily thought of them to get through anoth- er day. Many are still com- ing down with COVID-19 and some hospitals have put more restrictions on having only pa- tients enter. Many are going through therapy, testings, sur- geries and then recovery. Ma- ny have those aches pains of everyday life. Our Meyer family has lost another loved one on May 23. Aunt Jean Meyer was 87 years old. She enjoyed seeing her boys grow up and have families of their own, and she greatly enjoyed them as well. There are many nieces and nephews who Aunt Jean loved as her own, who would stop by or meet at reunions. We all will miss her smile and the won- derful times Uncle Ab and Aunt Jean enjoyed as a family. To all the family and friends, remember all the great times and share your memories, and more will be added to yours. Oh yes, Aunt Jean loved to have Mom over when she was in town because they were also sis- ters, not just a sis- ter-in-law, Aunt Jean always said.

There were no postcards at Sweets Column, Winslow, IN 47598 Winslow Patoka River has dropped more and the rain we have had won't make any difference in the water level. The temps have been in the middle to high 80s and the nights were in the middle to high 60s, with some humidi- ty. Winds have been from the south most days at 5 -20 mph. Some houses have turned on their air conditioners, like our daughter, but having the win- dows open and a fan in every room has felt good. The house plants are now outside in the rock garden under the shade tree. The Dogwood tree we have now has white blooms. Rose bushes are showing their colors of red or pink. Pe- onies are white or purple and there are irises of all colors. Jacob's ladder or Adam and Eve have their shoots which will soon bear the white bell- like flowers. There is also cot- ton floating in the air from the cottonwood tree. The Brood X Cicadas have been in our area for over a week now. They are on the ground, wood porch rails and all types of flower leaves. The sound they make is getting louder each day, but not at night or when it rains. I did see one close up on the door frame while getting into Ava. They are an ugly creature with wings the size of their body. They are about an inch long and the eyes are bugout red dots. I'm glad they only come out every 17 years. One of our neighbors has put up a fine looking fence and the kids are having fun on the trampoline while the ground is prepared for the pool. Two other neighbors have been bailing winter wheat for their animals and one yard could al- so be cut for wheat and bailed or they could put a cow, horse or goat out there to cut the high grassy lots. I haven't seen any deer, but Norm found a 1 1/2 point antler in the corner lot and it wasn't there when he mowed last. I guess an animal brought it in. Our town workers have do- ne a great job as they keep Winslow a great town. You can eat lunch at the park by the riv- er or sit on a bench in town or drive the many streets to wave at all the friendly stars. Winslow stars, did you know that applications for part-time town workers are being ac- cepted only on the internet? Does everyone have internet? I don't and many others don't. So, why not use the county pa- per also in the want ads? It's always nice to eat some- where you haven't been to in a long time, so we ate at fast food restaurant in Jasper, where the crowd was light, the food was filling and the service was pleasing from Big- gins' daughter, who had just started there. We drove to another restaurant in Evans- ville. We had a gift card from Christmas, so we decided to use it on this fine day. We both had a sirloin steak with mashed potatoes and vegeta- bles, plus a sweet tea. I almost ate all my meal and took the rest home for later. People we saw this week were Tim and Jeanette, Darla Riester in Princeton, where I picked up a walking cane with flowers and leaves on it, Mary Ester in Oakland City, Ted and Terri as we took Mom for a drive to French Lick and back to Terri and Ted's house, just to get out. We were going to get gas before we came home, but everywhere in Haysville, Jasper, Ireland and Winslow, gas stations are closed after 11 p.m. So, we will know now to get gas if we are out past 10 p.m. for a nighttime cruise. Monday, May 31 was Memo- rial Day and Winslow has flags hung up on Main St. and Pe- tersburg got a new type of flag hung along Main St. and Hwy 61. We hope you all had a great day with family and you had your own memorial to those loved ones who served our country to keep us all safe. Ava is going to get new shocks soon as we get ready for more weekend travels around the neighborhood. All schools are now out for the summertime, with lots of parties for those graduates and those who are going in- to that next grade of learn- ing. Congrats to everyone and have fun this summer. The other day when it show- ered, it reminded me when I was young, we were allowed to play in the rain and I remem- ber how it sounded hitting the grass, and how us kids loved to feel the drops on our heads. It made us feel cooler on a hot day. As the lights begin to dim on this week, keep an eye on family and friends, if only to listen. Keep wearing your mask to keep others safe. Get your shot if you are allowed to. Slow down and see all the wonders in your neck of the woods. As always, smile, wave and say "hi" to everyone you see this week.

Is it worth it for the Galileo bit?

Join the One WINNER is drawn at the end of each month Gray donates to Gideons Charles Gray donated several jars of coins and a large stack of cash he col- lected over the last 10 years while walk- ing the streets of Petersburg. Gray start- ed walking in about 2000 after the doctor told him he needed to walk more. If you drive through Petersburg, you have prob- ably seen out walking a tall, slender gray headed man. "I try to get in 10,000 steps a day," said Gray. He typically walks from his house on Ninth St. out to Hornady Park and back, but the route he takes varies from day to day. Along the way, he has found some strange things. He said they ranged from a big bar of staples to complete fast food meals unopened to money, lots of coins and bills. In the jars he gave to the Gideons last Thursday were 3,868 pennies, 408 nickels, 824 dimes, 332 quarters, 34 $1 bills, four $5 bills, two $10 bills and three $20 bills. Gray said he saw John Burns speak on the Gideons at his church, Main St. Presby- terian, and decided that is where he want- ed to donate the money he had picked up. Gideons International is an organiza- tion of Christian businessmen who spread God's Word by handing out the Holy Bible and New Testaments, and through person- al witnessing. Gray earlier donated a collection of mon- ey he found to a Presbyterian Church kids' camp. Above are: John Gray, president of the Gideon's Pike County Camp, Gray and John Burns, also with the Gideons.
