The Falks are in town again. This time
Sandy.has gone to stay a few days with Mr.
& Mrs. Stearns in Anchorage. Mr. Stearns
was stationed at the Air Force Sit.e at
Gulkana some time ago.
This beautiful weather has been just the
ticket for both gardens and residents.
The gardens are making grand progress here;
we now cauliflower, cabbage, and turnips
for table use. The broccoli is tender and
most delicious too. Yummy! As for the
residents, the near 60? below zero weather
of December and January is still fresh in
our minds so our wish for warmer weather
has been granted. Feels good to have the
heat soak right into our bones, doesn’t it?
INDUSTRIOUS GARDENER IN GAiCONA!
Karl Barnard was watching her Mom and Dad
weed the garden recently and decided it
must be fun± Before Mommy and- Daddy real
ized what she was so busy about, a large
part of the onion patch was thrown over the
fence by Miss Barnard*
We have an easy time getting garden vege
tables down our young ones these days as
vegetables taste so much better freshly
picked and eaten raw* A little dirt
doesn’t hurt anyone either*
