Crowds come ‘Home for the Holidays’
Seven firefighters decorated for six hours in Scanlon Saturday for the Home for the Holidays parade, painstakingly stringing colored lights along nearly every panel on the fire engine truck and even mounting a plastic deer head with a red headlamp for a nose to the front bumper.
It took those same firefighters exactly one minute to rip off all those decorations.

Slices of Life... Giving thanks - all year long
Gratitude. We all acknowledge the inherent value of being grateful – at least we do on the last Thursday in November. We fill our mouths and our stomachs with too much good food and spend a moment or a mealtime pondering the things we are thankful for. We may even go around the table and name them. Then, after stuffing ourselves with a second slice of pumpkin pie (extra whipped cream, please) we settle on the couch to let the tryptophan do its work – and we call it a holiday.

In Honor of those who serve - Charlie Lembke
Charlie Lembke actually served in two different wars: Korea and Vietnam.
A career Army man, Lembke was drafted almost as soon as he registered.
“I’m originally from upstate New York and I had to go to Canada to catch a bus to the county seat to register [for the draft],” he said. “By the time I got back, I already had my paper to report for a physical. They were short of people and the county had to meet its quota.”
