50th Wedding Anniversary Celebration Canceled Due to COVID - 19
As Butch and I were busy planning our wedding fifty years ago, we never took into consideration that the world would be suffering a pandemic of Coronavirus when it came time to celebrate our 50th Anniversary. Who Knew? Right?
Our party on March 21st has been canceled. It has been fun in the planning – going through old pictures and old memories – putting together a slide show for your viewing enjoyment – never to be seen. Oh well !?!?!?
So instead of celebrating with all you on Saturday as planned, we will be sitting home on the couch watching nothing on TV and eating macaroni and cheese. Send happy celebratory thoughts our way and envision the fun we could be having together.

Meet Diane Davies
Children’s author, Diane Davies, takes us on a journey into her “neck of the woods” where she not only acquaints us with the neck, but also explains how she got started writing and why she continues. As a part of the tour, we hear about all 5 of her books (2 adult’s and 3 children’s) and get a sneak peek at questions her young audience members ask and how she answers them. Davies gives us an honest, thought provoking glance at being a children’s author.
