Page 4 Jerry Schulte still doesn t have a surgery date but he does have a new neck brace that he says gives him enough relief that he is back to dancing regularly. Rusty Wall is still not getting around but she says that Bob is taking good care of her and she has even learned to enjoy his cooking. Teri Mac Dougall is happy, happy, happy after getting a good report after a recent biopsy. Please call Pam Green at 541-471-9214 if you know of someone in the club who could benefit from our thoughts and prayers to get through illness or adversity. We will respect the need for privacy. Our desire is to help without being intrusive. 2014 REFRESHMENTS NOVEMBER DECEMBER RAY JOHNSON CHRISTMAS PARTY Mike and Granddaughter Emma. Who do you think is Grandpas best girl?

Page 11 Annual End of the Season Galice Fall Color Tour Words by: MAC Photos by: Chuck & Ann Tarski Our annual tour to Galice Resort led by Dave Williams came off almost without a hitch again this year. The weather man (who gets paid even when he s wrong) predicted dry conditions and was almost right. A short cloud burst only slightly dampened the drive and other than a wrong turn, an oil leak and a stop to add water no problems came up. Everyone had a good time. The food was good, the service OK and the conversation excellent. Beside our usual batch of Model A s, there were two nice 41 Chevys from CVCC and John & Nancy Firth drove their new 53 Ford Convertible (with the top down), Mike & Debby brought their 53 Chrysler, Vito & Diane Maurantonio had their 66 Lincoln Continental Convertible and Rick Black brought his 59 El Camino. Let s do it again next year, OK.
