Having missed the last issue of the
| Current, "Ye olde ACS reporter is back
on the job again-made a trip by jet down
| to the "south 48", picked up my wife Jean
' and the. family bus and drive hack up the '
Alcan, Had a most enjoyable trip both
ways. But real glad to get back to Glenn
allen again. The only thing I can see a
change in is the weather-I was only gone,
two weeks but-the snow left and spring
had really arrived when I returned. It
! was kind of nice to see some warm weather
i again.
With the snow gone, lots of things
have been uncovered and we have been pick
. ng up and cleaning up around the station,
"'ey Babin has been repainting the P. Q. &
i it looks like a new one. He has really
>.o::u- a fine job. Also in the line of :
: spinng, the 1 awns ha.ve been fertili zed,
I ••'•■.to ing hoses and sprinklers examined &
lawn movers tuned and blades sharpened in
■ anticipation of the new green grass that
, re know ;ri 1.1 come later. Some people have
i oven spaded up their- flower and vegetable
- .:arden spots, whi1e others have been ab
ler ved putting up screen doors and windows
1 Spring has really made it's arrival here.
1 .-caking of arrivals, there will be <
o. new one in ACS before- iong-The Jim(Mac)
HcCilir- are expecting a new baby before
on IIac went to town over the weekend
rad b'night cigars for the occasion. He
ar?c har been nervous lately. You would
Araik he vas going to have the baby in
stead of his wife.
Jerry Wolfe at the Sheep Mountain
station has -been all smiles for the past
two weeks. ■ His wife Shirly and their two
sous arrived. They seem to like it real
< well. Jerry says they will stay as long*
as the government will -let them.
Wade Harkins is sitting on pins and
needles' waiting for Friday the 10th. His
wife and family will be in Anchorage then
and he asks me every day if the station
wagon is ready to go. Seems Friday canrt
get here soon enough.
Ron Fall, at Sheep Mountain is waiting
for his family also. Ron said Saturday he
wasn’t sure when they would arrive, but
their cat was due in by jet on Tuesday &
the family wouldn.’ t be far behind.
Bruce McGill, son of Sgt and Mrs.
Jim McGill, is a real cowboy at the movie
last Saturday night. Bruce left the the
atre for a few minutes and returned with
his funs. Guess the .good boys were get
ting the worse of things and Bruce wanted
to help out,
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
About the time you catch up with the
-ttjyoneses, they refinance.
