Fishermen Artists and Garden Adventures in a Busy Town
A colorful collage of local tales features Georgie Sawaski crafting his own flies and catching fish daily, rabbit eradication efforts by Howdy Anderson and Bill Jacobson’s cabbage patch humor, a lost fawn named Frisky transferred to the Conservation district, camouflaged parachute displays at city hall, sunburned gardeners, tales of mosquitoes and ticks during fishing trips, a new baby born to Mr and Mrs John Miles, and lighthearted wartime jests about catching imagined German leaders during fishing. The column weaves community characters, small milestones, and everyday antics into a lively, nostalgic snapshot.
