NEW YEARS DINNER
Miss Mary Bohn, the genial and affable proprietress of the Bohn Hotel will give a grand New Years dinner on New Year’s Day, the menu of which will be found below.

Monday morning. You’ll notice I didn’t say “Good” first. That’s because the wind is extremely strong and what snow we got Saturday night is finding its way through the air.
At least I think that’s where the snow is coming from. It doesn’t look new.
We had a wonderful turnout for our “breakfast-for-lunch” Saturday. Breakfast was served to 45 including home deliveries. And the French toast casserole was super delicious.

There were five here for bingo on Tuesday. Two-dollar winners were Grace Johnston, and Madaline Forbes.Winnie Allen and Grace Johnston shared a $2 round. Winnie Allen won the $4 blackout round.
There were two-and-a-half tables for duplicate Bridge on Monday. High winners were Bob Johnson and Sheila Johnson. Second high went to Lee Groshart and Mary Sjoden.

At Valley View, residents enjoyed many activities throughout the week. The Activity Department offers a wide variety of activities each week to meet the residents’ interests, as well as the physical, mental, and psychological well-being of each resident.

We are finally decorated for Christmas. It seems like it took me all week. I hope everyone enjoys it.
