Congratulations to Chelsea Block,

who graduated from Wesleyan University.

----------

Thanks for all your kind words and the feedback for the article

I wrote for Nebraska Life. As I've stated several times, thanks should

be given to April Isaacs, who started the ball rolling ont

that project.

----------

Barb Wilhelm and sister, Mary Boardman Hanke, were

initiated into Betsy Ross Tent #1 of the Daughters of

Union Veteran's of the Civil War, Saturday, May 21, in

Omaha. Now, we need to know more about ladies' Civil War

fashions and accessories. If you can help, let us know!

We really would like to be able to attend some re-enactments.

Did you know that the average American generates 4.6 pounds

 of trash a day? We throw away almost 30 million trees a year,

just from newsprint alone.
