| SUNDAY, OCTOBER 11 We started Sunday the way we start most Sundays, at one of our favorite restaurants with Dick and Donna. Then it was off to rural Eleva. |
| Jay and the Pleasant Valley Lutheran Church Chicken Chefs. |
| What a beautiful church, inside and out. |
| We were treated to a delightful concert by the Stout Hearted Men from Pigeon Falls. They are going to be in concert in the Whitehall High School Auditorium on the 5th of December. Showtime is 7:30. Tickets will be available at the door for $4. Enjoy this Christmas Concert. |
| JAY WITH SADIE Sadie sent in the notice for the Fall Bazaar at Pleasant Valley Lutheran Church. With it she put a personal invitation for Jay to come and the rest is history. Such a sweet lady. The picture shows some of her handiwork. She assembles some of quilts that are sold at the Bazaar. We found some cookies and a loaf of sensational Banana Bread that needed some where to go. There are no pictures available as they have been devoured. |
| Al Gore once took credit for starting the World Wide Web, well we know better. WWW. starts right by the Pleasant Valley Lutheran Church. As you can see, it goes everywhere from there. |
| CHOW DOWN FOR CHARITY at THE VIEW |
| Vickie Price, Shelter Manager and Angie Jordan - Adoption Coordinator were on hand to answer any question about the shelter and how to adopt some love. |
| The shelter brought alon a nice display that showed some of the animals that have benefitted from the facility and they provided a lot of useful information for potential adoptive families. |
| If you're thinking about increasing the size of your family with a pet, please consider a shelter animal, like we did. Our little Duffy is the perfect addition to our home. He came to us fully house broke, well mannered, and loving. Go to www.chippewahumane.com for more information. |
| SOUP FEED AT STATION 3 On Saturday, January 23rd we ventured about a 1/2 mile from home to Chippewa Falls/Lafayette Fire Station 3 to slurp up some GREAT soup! They had Chili, with or without macaroni and a tasty Potato and Sausage Soup, breads, and a DESSERT TRAY. The food was tasty and the crew that prepared and served it were lively. What a great afternoon! Keep watching for other fundraisers by this group, they know how to do it! |
| CHIEF COOKS AND BOTTLE WASHERS |
| SERVING UP THE SOUP... |
| ...WITH A HEARTY HELPING OF SMILES. |
| NO BEAN SOUP, JUST SOME GREAT BEAN COUNTERS. |
| THEY EVEN HAD A BIT OF A BAKE SALE. WE BOUGHT SOME MAGIC CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES...AND MADE THEM DISAPPEAR. |
