I attended part of the morning and went to the quilt show. It was wonderful. After looking at the arts and crafts and listening to some on the music I went to get me a fried pie and a bar-b-que plate to take home. (and me taking medication for high cholesterol). It was all wonderful. We returned about 3 and stayed until 9:30. Anyone who missed the Mr. Beautiful contest really missed something. There were pictures of it in the Advance last week. It makes me feel bad when some of those guys, I mean ladies, have better legs than I do. Rusty Glennon won this year but he had some strong competition. I think after the cake walk was over they had about 10 cakes left. They auctioned them off with everything else later. There was not as much attention paid to the auction this year, but it was still good. Lamar Hunter and his band played 3 or 4 hours for the dance. It was still going when we left at 9:30. The weather couldn't have been better if they had ordered it. Eddie Eubanks had a large truck load of watermelons that he was giving away. There were a number of politicians there working the crowd trying to get in that one last request for a vote. If you get a chance to go next year it would be well worth your time. Especially for the beauty contest. Hope this has been of some help to you.

Hi, all, Did anyone go to Possum Valley Days last month? If so, could we get a report? I'm sorry to say that I missed it *again* because of work. Next year, I would really like to attend! Thanks in advance, Melissa
