Here we are in August, the eighth month of the year. It has started out as a cooler, damper month than usual. August has no national holidays; but in a standard year, no other month starts on the same day as August. We think of August as hot and dry with school starting and vacation ending. We have had wonderful vegetable donations this past week from Jeannette Perez, and we thank her and others for remembering us.

We also had a group of ladies on Tuesday playing bridge. They seemed to have a serious game going on and stayed for lunch.
