Remember last winter when we were counting the days until spring? Well, it’s only six weeks until fall. Hope we can last that long. I lied in my last article about having lots of tomatoes. My blossoms were dropping so I contacted the local farm expert, Harold Schowe, and he said there is a fungus on the plants. Hopefully, I can save them in time to get some good tomatoes.

Are you wishing for fall yet? This has been one hot summer! One good thing about the heat and the rain is that my tomatoes are growing like crazy. I should have plenty to give away in a few days.

We had Vernon Kohlbusch with us Thursday and enjoyed his music. He always has a variety of songs and is very entertaining. Dianne Whelan will be sharing some of her music with us on Tuesday, July 27, and on Thursday, July 29, Tom and Carol Kuhlmann will display their musical talents.

New Haven Care Center Bell Choir Performs

Posted on July 14, 2010 - 8:22pm
The New Haven Care Center Bell Choir recently performed at the Arizona Care Center. Several residents also visited the New Haven Visitor's Center.

The New Haven Care Center Bell Choir performed for the residents at Arizona Care Center on Tuesday, July 13. Eight residents make up the bell choir, most of whom are over 90 years old. One will soon be 101.

Residents toured downtown as well and went to the New Haven Visitor's Center where they heard the story about John Colter, ate lunch at Somebody's, and rounded out the day by watching the glass blowing at Artisan Glass Blowing.

It was a fun day for everyone and it was rewarding to watch the eight residents who made the excursion, along with staff and volunteers.
