This is one of my most favorite times of year, although we didn’t have a bad winter people seem to come alive at this time year. Hear the hammers and the leaf blowers and everybody is getting ready for a great summer.
National Park Week April 20 through April 28, we live there and can enjoy it year around, this is the time that other people, enjoy our Park, also, Happy Earth Day.
Speaking of the Park, the Empire Lions Club was privileged to have Scott Tucker, Park superintendent give a nice talk and explain a few things regarding the Park what to expect and what has happened. Our Park is one of the most popular national parks and we are privileged to live here.
I hope everyone enjoys Glen Lake Restaurant Week April 26 through May 4, make your reservations and enjoy. While were talking about food, enjoy a great pancake breakfast on Sunday from 8 a.m. until noon . Pancakes and sausage and all the fixins at the Empire Townhall.
A bear visited the Empire area and did quite a bit of damage to some folks property. Apparently the Park is sending out or has sent out a crew to catch this bear and take it home to where it belongs.
Sincere condolences to the Barr family on the passing of Dirk Barr.

Happy Anniversary wishes to Sue and Tim Nichols and Melissa and Chris Reid I think Winston Churchill was looking far in the future when he said, “There are a terrible lot of lies going about the world, and the worst of it is that half of them are true”.
Be happy, be safe, stay positive. Go patriotism.
