TAGS WERE ORDERED THIS YEAR FOR TAGGING THE BUTTERFLYS THAT LIVE ONLY 8 MONTHS, MIGRATE OVER 2,000 MILES AND SPEND THE WINTER
IN MEXICO.     ALL ARE WELCOME TO HELP SATURDAYS.

TOOK THIS PHOTO YESTERDAY OF A PAINTING BY G GOODENOW, SEE
RIGHT HAND CORNER.   I REMEMBER G GOODENOW.   YOU MIGHT ALSO.
SHE WORKED IN OFFICE FOR MANY YEARS AT G.L. STOCKHAM AND SON CONTRACTORS IN MAQUOKETA AND HER HUSBAND GEORGE WORKED FOR
CLINTON ENGINES IN MANAGEMENT.    GEORGE I KNEW BECAUSE I WAS
IN ROTARY WITH HIM AND GEORGE HAD PERFECT ATTENDANCE AT ROTARY FOR I THINK OVER 30 YEARS....MAYBE MORE.    I KNOW HE IS NO LONGER
LIVING BUT I AM NOT SURE ABOUT GERTIE.     THEY HAD NO CHILDREN.
AND I DID NOT KNOW SHE ENJOYED PAINTING.  

HAVE A NICE WEKEND.

GO MAQUOKETA CARDINALS.
KEEP GOING ST. LOUIS CARDINALS.
