Page -3- fifty, with one day of rain out of three there* Not enough time to thaw out before flying back to arctic Sheboygan where still another blizzard was raging and closing schools (almost unheard of up there where things are like ly to keep going stoically, as a rule, until you-know-what freezes over)* And so it goes for us wanderers, this report having been just a sample of what it’s like, flitting in and out of time and temperature zones. I*m having some trouble with my thermostat, though. The computer in my brain isn't receiving the messages about changes fast enough, and when I get on a plane in «l8 weather and get off again in +60, I get this headache and this very disoriented feeling. Tell me, how long have y*all had life here on Mars? Meanwhile, as one editor was experiencing the above, the other, Betty Hammon, slipped off to Erie, Pa., to greet a new granddaughter named Erin. Betty’s report from Erie gives us a personal peek at what the media has been telling us about this winter: "Here in Erie people have been asked to ^et thermo stats at 62 during the day and 55 at night, and all public buildings, in cluding schools, are to be kept at 55 all the time, ...We are going to get back to PKS more convinced than ever that it is the perfect place for us. It may have been a cold winter, but we still walked the beach and picked up starfish for next year's Christmas tree and found some perfect olive shells and raked scallops in the Sound. And we cut wood for the fireplace and kept the fire going all day every day. In Erie, it snowed twenty-nine out of the thirty-one days of January, and in Pine Knoll Shores, we had SUN. There's nothing like going away to make us realize how perfect our island is’.'' ORITA and CHUCK TONK^iriS have been in the county for several years, but only recently moved to Reefstone Condominiums. Orita teaches at Beaufort Cen tral School in the Language Arts and liathematics departments, and Chuck is Maintenance Officer at Bogue Field. Orita is active in the Community Theatre, having served as its secretary this past year and having been recently re-elected to that office. She would love an occasional bridge game or even to become a member of a bridge club (one in which the players are not out for blood!) CRAFT AI'JD NEEDLE'JORK GROUP met at IRMA BROSSiiAN'S ^home on Wednesday, Feb, 9* Some crewel was taught and some encouragement given to a laiitter - also "mice were born," wrote our correspondent cryptically, and "skeleton for the closeif’ bones and all, was an interesting project introduced, and several of the more experienced "needlers" were persuaded to offer instruction at future dates. This group will continue to meet every other Wednesday and ELIZABETH AMES, 726-8397» or VERIIA ARI'xSTRONG, 726-0091» will be happy to give you more in formation about it if you ring them up.
