Vardy reunion - October 2, 2010

Looks like the annual Vardy Reunion event is THIS weekend! My Grandma loved the year she was able to attend the old Vardy school. Once upon a time, before I moved to Lee County, me and my child and my Dad and my Grandma (yes, that's 4 generations) all made the trip to Vardy together for this Vardy Reunion event. It's a wonderful memory.

Critters of Blackwater

The cattle and horses look content. The turtle was in the road. I got out to take his photo and then moved him out of the road.

Colors of Blackwater

It's almost October, but there's still lots of pretty flowers blooming along the Blackwater roadsides...

Blackwater WATER PROJECT

Blackwater residents are moving right along in gathering easements for the proposed public water line. A community meeting is scheduled for Friday, September 17, 2010 at 6:30PM at the Blackwater Fire Hall. Katie Osborne reports, "We have to have 105 easements signed, and we've got 58 signed so far. The sooner we get it done, the sooner we have water." For more information contact Katie Osborne at 346-3026.
