This last month has been quite a roller coaster ride for me personally. Despite receiving both my vaccinations early last spring, I contracted COVID. Luckily, after a week, I was up and feeling better. Please continue to be vigilant against this virus.

The fun news is that I am currently awaiting the birth of my first biological grandchild. I’m blessed with seven bonus grandchildren and I’m thrilled to be adding this new baby to the family.

And now we head into October and once again the Cloverdale community will be celebrating with Oktoberfest and the Tour de Vine. Meanwhile, I drove by the Clover Theater and there was lots of activity so maybe we’ll get our wonderful movie house back soon. So, get out and enjoy this great weather and all our Cloverdale community has to offer. Let’s keep our fingers crossed for rain too and get us out of this drought soon. We’ve got our firewood stacked and I look forward to firing up the woodstove once it’s chilly and safe.

I’ll see you around town!
