It's A Small Small World

This has been a most uneventful week in Burbank. A new gal started at work and just to show you it is a small, small world she told me her mother grew up in Canby Minnesota. Which is the home of Michelle, Mike's wife. Canby is a small town of about 1500 people so the odds of meeting someone from Canby are slim to none. It reminded me of when years and years ago we lived in Panama and someone asked me where I was from. When I told them Dundee Oregon they chuckled and said "Oh, the speed trap of Oregon".

When I grew up in Dundee there was a state policeman that lived there and he was legendary in stopping people. After he moved away Marilyn Lenhart's Dad would park across the street from the Dundee Grade School in his red City of Dundee truck in the mornings and afternoon. He couldn't write tickets but I don't think most drivers realized it so they automatically would slow down, keeping the city of Dundee's children safe when they walked to and from school.

I want to wish Happy Easter to all my friends. I hope you are eating lots of chocolate Easter Bunnies!!!

Love to you and yours,
NanaCarol
