It'll be a busy day in the valley Saturday. Clean up at the cemetery....and the folks who toil to keep the cemetery cleaned up and running smoothly can use all the help they can get...and/or $$$ donations. The cemetery's lawn mowers both broke down just recently. One could not be repaired. Also, Saturday is Cow Creek Historical Society's May Tea and Quilt Show at the old Springer Martin HOuse. Some of us have been burrning the candle at both ends to get everything prepared! It's suppose to be a gorgeous day weather-wise.

T'was a delightful day! The lunch group at 7F was fun (what happens at 7F stays at 7F!!) ...then Glendale beat Drain at the 7 p. game in Roseburg 5-4. It was quite exciting! After some of the "stuff" Drain pulled, there were some of us who wished the Lady Pirates would have ten-pointed them!!! However, the one point lead did the job and proved a point! Next game for Glendale is Wednesday 5/23 at Glendale.

CHANGE OF PLANS FOR GLENDALE SOFTBALL TEAM.... Drain lodged a complaint about playing Glendale on our home field. They apparently did not like the idea of playing two games on Thursday...so the game plan is changed. Glendale will play Drain at Stewart Park in Roseburg tomorrow night at 7 p. GO LADY PIRATES!!!!!

Marian	15/05/12   19:42:05
Kay...Yes the clean-up is Sat.

Kay Troxel	15/05/12   17:47:24
The cemetary cleanup is this Saturday the 19th??

The Glendale Lady Pirates won their game with Days Creek last Wed. 20-2. Even though GHS had scored (last I knew) over 100 more runs and had 30 or 40 less runs scored against them during season play than North Douglas (aka Drain), the Glendale and North Douglas teams are considered "Co-League-Champions" since they both lost one game in league play. The play-off games will begin in Glendale on Thursday at 3 p. at which time Drain and another team (probably Yoncalla...but I"m not for sure on that) will play and then Glendale will play the winner of the first game. It's expected that the Glendale game will begin at approx. 5 p.m. The state "powers that be" require the schools to charge for play-off games, so it will cost to watch the game(s). The Lady Pirates are fired up and ready to play!

Thank you Marian for your words about Dave. He was a good person and I will miss his voice, smile, and laughter, as well as his grumbling I love this town and the supportive people who live here. I think that sometimes we forget what kind of community we have.

Today is a sad day, for this is the day of our friend, Dave's memorial service. Dave died Monday after being injured in an accident last Saturday. Dave was a person of constancy. His love, pride and enjoyment of wife, children & grandchildren remained constant. His love and enjoyment of friends remained constant, his love of music & singing remained constant, his work ethics and giving a full measure for what he earned remained constant, and his service to country and community remained constant. Dave served in the US Navy during the Vietnam War. After moving to Glendale in 1976, he was elected to the Glendale City Council then served 2 1/2 terms as mayor. Later he was elected to serve on the Glendale Ambulance Board and was still a member of that board at the time of his death. Dave sang in the Olivet Presbyterian Church Choir and with the Glendale Community Singers group. A wonderful person, a beautiful voice and a good friend is no longer with us physically, but his spirit of love and example of how to make this world a better place remains. I picture Dave singing with the angels.

The Glendale Lady Pirates won both of their games with Yoncalla today by the ten point in five innings rule. The Yoncalla left fielder hit the fence in her quest to catch a ball that almost went over the fence. I'm not sure which part of her was injured, but after laying on the ground a minute, then slowing getting to her feet with the help of a couple of coaches, then testing out her "sea legs", she chose to stay in the game. She got a big round of applause when she got to her feet...and another when she stayed in the game. These rural town kids are put together with a tough brand of glue! I was glad it wasn't her head that got thumped! Head injuries don't always heal as well as bumped limbs, etc. Next game is with Oakland on Wednesday. Glendale soundly beat Oakland last game, but the word is that their team has greatly improved so nothing can be taken for granted. The Glendale Junior/Senior Prom was Friday night at the Event Center in Roseburg, so knowing his players probably wouldn't be getting to bed at a decent hour, the coach made arrangements for the game to begin at 2 p instead of noon today so the girls could have a couple more hours of sleep. I believe the Glendale boys lost both their games today but their coach is pleased with the progress the young team is making. The Youth Baseball has begun. Last week as I was going to singing practice at the high school music room, the lower field had a bunch of pint-sized kids being coached by the volunteers. Quite a few proud parents were sitting or standing on the sidelines watching their little tykes learn the game. I'm so thankful for the volunteers who who are willing to spend their time working with the youngsters. T'would be nice if we had other activities to offer the kids.

Glendale High girls won their two softball games at Oakridge yesterday. Not sure of the exact score, but it was another blow-out...something like 20 something to 5 and 18 to 3. It was perfect weather for a ball game. Hope we get more of the same today. So far it's overcast and 51 degrees. Cow Creek Historical Society is hosting a High Tea and Quilt Show on Saturday, May 19th at the Springer-Martin House, 7331 Azalea Glen Road, Glendale. We are pre-selling tickets, which are $15 each. We are limited to 45 tickets. Last year the only complaint about the tea was we served too much food.

Thanks Marian, sometimes it seems that you and I are the only ones who utilize the alumni website. Thomas Paine once said that trying to put divinity into words, written on paper, was a poor way to record the feelings of divinity. He said, "Just look around you and at all the beautiful things nature has to behold and then you'll see divinity." I think he was right!!! In your case I think Patrick has your back... if only we could take a peek through the inpenetrable veil we would see things we are not capable of discerning... but some day... All you need is love!!! Easy to say but, so hard to remember at certain times. RTM

RTM...You have a wonderful way of expressing your thoughts No matter which mood...I think you are one terrific, good person...and much smarter than the "average size bear"! Several days ago, I came home in a "I sure feel sorry for myself" mood. Even had tears streaming down my face thinking about how tired I was and what all I needed to get done. It was raining one of those spring April showers with the sun trying to peek through the clouds...and when I looked out the front window, I saw the biggest, closest, most brilliant colored rainbow I've ever seen in my life. It started (or ended?) right down by our son's house. Couldn't tell where the other end of the rainbow was...perhaps because it was so near-by and so big. My thought was just maybe the other end was heaven. Have to tell you...that beautiful rainbow perked me right up!

My Harddrive vs. Nature's Software It's my theory that each one of us is born with a hard drive created specifically for our time here on earth. The Cosmic Designer, having done that, gave us the ability to download software both good and bad... negative or positive that we begin to process as our awareness develops. It's how we sort/process the negatives and positives that makes the ultimate product. Some people are able to use the information to become the best product they can be or they can blame the world for getting a bad deal. We are all damaged... some worse than others but most of the damage is done innocently or ignorantly. In my case it was raising my kids as I was raised and making the mistake of following religious dogma that goes back generations in my family. I try hard to be the best I can be and when the damaged software is not defraggable or fixable I try to weather the time spent in the storm and look ahead to the next good spell. I wish I were a Phlegmatic sort of person where my moods and actions were the same every day but I'm a Sanguine, Melancholy and Choleric with very little Phlegmatic in the mix. Each day, with me, can be exciting, as one never knows for sure which Robert will show up for the day. Nevertheless I try to be the best I can be no matter what mood I find myself in. Is this my harddrive or is it the downloaded software of my life's experiences? I don't know. When the next phase of life begins... maybe I’ll know more than I now do concerning this question.
