Community Potluck at the Schoolhouse

Sunday night we attended a Four Mile Canyon Pot Luck held at the
schoolhouse. Before we left for the schoolhouse, Ed and Sherry
Cole arrived for a few minutes. They had been sifting through the
ashes of their destroyed home and had not planned on attending
the Pot Luck. We urged them to join us assuring them we were
taking more than our share of food and I'd add and extra salad
and an extra bottle of wine to the bread and lasagna we were
already taking. They agreed, but could they take showers first?
So two showers later and some clean clothes I donated to Sherry
and we were off. The party was fun. There were close to 50
people there, not counting children who were all outside.
I thought it especially nice because so many from the lower
canyon came. There is no meeting place for that community, but
they usually don't join us.

Marti reports there was almost $200 in the donation jar, much
more than usual. There had been a plea made to please donate
toward the rebuild of our burned outhouse. We did have two
outhouses, an old-type kept mostly for show and an old one with

The burned Fire Barn close to schoolhouse



The outhouse is gone, but the swings
are still there.
