Schools closed early Friday due to rising water, then snow fell in the mountains and larger storms moved through the valley Friday night and over the weekend. Community members discussed shifts in camp work, new lodging for families across the big slide, and various local errands and visits to Marshfield, Coquille, and Myrtle Point. Residents reported improved health for Mrs A W Oberman and a number of social calls around Myrtle Point and Gravelford.
