o 12 The Nevada County Nugget salad ld 19, 1972 Penn Valley News By ELSIE DILLBERG If the old saying about the April showers bringing the May flowers is true, then we are going to have some lovely May flowers. The rain of the past week was most refreshing and I do hope that we will get some more before the month is out. Last Sunday, I had my firstencounter with a Great Dane. I have seen them from a.distance, but never close enough to touch. We had taken a short ride down the road to Smartville and saw a sign advertising mini dachshunds for sale. Being Dachshund lovers we followed the sign. The people not only have the puppies for sale but the huge Great Dane, Bruce met us as we got out of the car. The man told us that Bruce _ eats. about five to six pounds of food per day. The Dane is a massive but beautiful dog. Grace Pedigo of Devonshire Downs has recently received a letter from the President of Sierra College, congratulating her for receiving a 4.0 grade point average for the fall semester of 1971. Only 45 students out of the 3,100 in the student body have equalled her accomplishment. That is indeed an honor. Penn Valley has an extra nice paper carrier in the person of Boyd Newman, our Union carrier. He not only saved each day's paper for us while we were away over Easter week, but he went out of his way to deliver -them early one morning following our arrival home. I call that service. Both Royd and Margaret are really swell people. Tom and Eva Hill left our community last Friday afternoon, The moving van came early in the morning and by late afternoon the men had loaded everything from the house. Thelma Darr, Eva's sister from Silverton, Oregon was here for the past two weeks helping Eva and Tom with the last minute moving details. Thelma drove one of the Hill's cars to Klamath Falls for Tom, as Lva doesn't drive. Going to miss these nice people, Tom and Carol Cox and son Ron spent a few days of Easter week in Morro Bay visiting their older son Tommy. While there they helped Tommy celebrate his 21st birthday. The Cox's jJaughter and son-in-law Donna and Ed Smith from Marina were also on hand for the birthday celebration. Carol says “that granddaughter Shannon. is really growing. Weekend guests for Tom and Carol this past weekend were Tom's sister and husband, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Thrun from Eureka. The Bowens, Ron and Norma, are really ambitious people. Drove by their place the other day and they are giving their jouse a new paint job. Feally looks great. Everyone at the Dillberg house managed to have a few days off at the same time during Easter week so we loaded the bus and took off for’ Atascadero to visit my sister, Herta Shafer. We got as far as the Milk Farm on Highway 80 and unbelievable as it sounds, the engine in our new Volkswagen bus blew up. A great start for the first vacation in four years. We had to be towed backward up the freeway to the A. E. Harter Volkswagen Center in Davis. This was about 5:30 Monday afternoon. These nice folks at Harter Volkswagen diagnosed the trouble right away, saw to it that we got a car to drive home and started working on our car the following morning at 7 a.m. By 5 that Tuesday afternoon, we were on our way. We visited friends Bob and Carol Jones in Richmond that evening and left Richmond early the next morning, going down the Coast Highway 1, so the kids could see the ocean. Youngest™son Court was amazed that the ocean was so big, he saw it for the first time. We spent a day atthe beach at Cayucos where thekids found sand crabs and shells and of course had to see how wet they could get before they asked if they could go swimming in the ocean. The weather was beautiful and aside from the inconvenience ofthe engine trouble we had a lovely time. A big thanks to the friends who babysat with our animals, Pocahontas, the pony spent the time with the Frank Foster family; Pebbles, the dog, was lovingly cared for by Nora and Percy Langlois and Pinky and Homer; the white rats were taken in by the Al Vincent Family. We thank them all. 18 arrested during March; 323 citations Grass Valley police arrested 18 people during March to be booked into the county jail and
