SUNNY,  BREEZY AND STILL COOL TODAY.
WARMER WEATHER COMING.
FLOOD WATER LEVELS DROPPING FAST.

THE COUNTY BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT HAS TURNED DOWN A REQUEST FROM A PRESTON COUPLE TO OPEN A WINERY IN MAQUOKETA.
THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED AT THE WEST EDGE OF MAQUOKETA.
THE PROPERTY HAS A SHARED DRIVEWAY WITH A RESIDENCE.   THIS SHARED DRIVEWAY WAS THE MAIN REASON THE REQUEST WAS DENIED.

MAQUOKETA POLICE RECEIVED A COUPLE REPORTS OF VEHICLES
WHICH HAD BEEN ENTERED.     KEERA SMITH ON AUSTIN AVENUE AND
RICHARD WAGGONER ON SOUTH VERMONT BOTH REPORTED THAT
SOMEONE HAD GONE THROUGH THEIR VEHICLE EARLY THIS WEEK.
LOCK YOUR CARS.

EVERY WEEK, I TALK TO PEOPLE WHO REGULARLY READ THIS DAILY
REPORT AND LIKE IT....INCLUDING A COUPLE IN SIERRA VISTA, ARIZONA.
(WHEN IN THE ARMY IN THE 60'S, I  ATTENDED A RADAR SCHOOL
AT A MILITARY BASE THERE,  NOT FAR FROM THE MEXICAN BORDER)
JANE GAILANT AND HER HUSBAND ARE IN TOWN BECAUSE OF THE
FUNERAL OF JANE'S MOTHER, JACQUELINE FISCHER,  WHO DIED AS THE RESULT OF INJURIES IN AN AUTO ACCIDENT WEST OF MAQUOKETA LAST WEEK.     THE FUNERAL WAS YESTERDAY.     JACQUELINE  HAD TWO CHILDREN, JANE OF SIERRA VISTA AND KEVIN OF MAQUOKETA.   JACQUELINE VISITED HER DAUGHTER DOWN SOUTH FOR SEVERAL WEEKS LATE LAST YEAR  AND THEY CHECKED THIS REPORT DAILY.     BECAUSE JANE'S  HUSBAND WAS IN THE ARMY FOR 9 YEARS, THEY HAVE LIVED IN QUITE A FEW PLACES, INCLUDING GERMANY.   NOW, THEY ARE RETIRED IN ARIZONA AND ESPECIALLY LIKE THE WEATHER.    ANYWAY, IT WAS INTERESTING TALKING TO THEM  AT THE FUNERAL HOME AND LEARNING THAT THEIR TOWN HAS GROWN A LOT SINCE MY THREE MONTH STAY NEAR THERE AS AN ARMY PRIVATE.  
SOMETIMES WHEN WRITING THIS,  I WONDER IF MAYBE THIS "DAILY" HAS A MAQUOKETA NATIVE READER IN EVERY STATE.     REMEMBER, EMAILS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME.

I CELEBRATE 40 YEARS OF THE VOY THEATRE THIS COMING WEEK.
CHECK BELOW FOR MORE INFORMATION.  IF YOU LIVE HERE,
HOPE YOU WILL COME FOR A MOVIE OR TWO.     OF COURSE...THE BEST WAY TO ENJOY A MOVIE IS ON A BIG THEATRE SCREEN.     LOOK AT THE SHORT
"TRAILER" BELOW!    LOOKS LIKE THE NEW COMEDY WILL BE A GOOD
ONE, STARTING FRIDAY, THE FIRST DAY OF THE ANNIVERSARY EVENT.

HAVE A GOOD WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY.
