even tho' we don't have any at the moment so do I, Lori and her family will be by to see little
Stu. Stu is for stupid because as a baby lamb he would not learn to depend upon mama for his
food. They will be surprised to find he is not a lamb any longer. When finally learned about mama
he really went to town and has outgrown some of the older members of the flock.

Jack Schaffer former resident of Rough and Ready and his family were recent visitors
here. They had a nice visit with Mrs. Scheave of the little Wedding Chapel. Everyone visits
our unofficial Rough and Ready Hostess, Mrs, Lisetta Scheave. Lisetta enjoys extrolling the
virtues of our community and does a very interesting job of it. Maybe thats one reason so many
former residents eventually come home to stay.

The Chamber officially greeted our new business people the Charles Tangers from Hawthorne, California at last Board meeting. The Tangers have taken over the Country Store and
the Arco Station from the Allen McCreas. Mary Ann Tanger, the lovely lady with the beautiful blue eyes is a-sister of Mrs. Dorothy Nunnick of Nevada City. Mary Ann will run the store.
Mr. Tanger will tend the Station , etc, I added the etc. because of the horrible grinding he
coaxed out of my car the other day. Technically, the starter wouldn't disengage. All I know
is the horrible noise stopped and it, got me to the Malakoff ok, Saw several Rough and Ready
people there including the Orin Browns and grandchildren and Art Phelps busy distributing
Homecoming Day programs. St. Columcilles Church is beautiful. See it some day and see
what an adjunct a historical restoration, maybe of our old Blacksmith Shop when we can get
_the required five feet on the West side, could mean to our community, We invited everyone
~~ in sight to attend our Secession Day Celebration. Learned that Clamper, Historian, Hal Goodyears great Grandfather came to Rough and Ready to make his fortune in 1853, His grandfather was born here, Small Wor!d!

After our cool weather of a
week ago, summer has descended upon us with very warm days
and nights, The fire danger will
be extremely bad this year since
we've had so little rain, Might
be a wise idea to remind young
children of the danger of play' ing with matches. Rattlesnakes
are another danger and I've
heard of several instances of
people killing them already.

where they visited with Mary's
foster parents, John and Lettie
Didlott. Mary had not seen them
in 18 years, They camped overnight at the Grand Canyon and
they saw the Petrified Forest and
the Painted Desert. In Denver,
Colorado they visited with two
of Mary's foster brothers, John
and Leonard Didlott. While
there, they also took in the tour
of the Coors Brewery. In Golden, Colorado they saw the burial place of Buffalo Bill, Hoover
Dam was another point of interest and in Las Vegas they
took Troy to the Circus, Circus Casino, the only one Mary
says, that allows minors. There
is a continous circus there all
day long. Disneyland was on the
vacation agenda also and a stop
at Fort Ord to see another of
Mary's foster brotHers, George
Dedlott, stationed with the U.S, Army there. Mary's birthday ~
