Hope that everyone had a good week. Monday was a nice day. I went down to Tammie’s and did some work. I sprayed the wild grape vines on her fence. I put out more tick stuff as the small ticks are really bad this year. I cleaned some more in the garage.

I’m having to write early this week since the Mountain Wave office will be closed Monday for Labor Day, so I don’t have much to write. We are still wishing and hoping to get rain, but it doesn’t sound very favorable for a few days.

School back in session. So far, the kids I’ve asked are ready for it. The new bus driver for Tomahawk was out scouting his route. Told Devin and Miranda that he’s a very nice man. John is also the pastor at the church by the Osborne cemetery.

Hello from Zack. Hope all is well with everyone.
