It’s been a wet, cool week and we are slowly drying out. Many farmers are not done with their harvesting. Let’s hope this week dries some and they can get it done.

The Krass girls braved the mud several times this week and came and helped Mom and Dad Krass with some things.

Don’t forget the upcoming Turkey Dinner and Bazaar to be held at the Hogeland Lutheran Church on November 6th. It’s always a nice meal to look forward to.
