Toython a Success

* Toython 2005 will go down as one of the best ever. The truck was filled with toys, a testament to the great generosity of our community. We'd like to thank our sponsors, Peavey Electronics and Rush Hospital, for all of their help. Toython would be impossible without the compassion of Nell Grissom and our friends at the Wesley House. Their desire to help the less fortunate knows no bounds. But, the main group of people who make this whole thing work is YOU. Your gift will have a tremendous impact on the life of a child, and for that, we offer a sincere and heartfelt thank you.

* While Toython 2005 is done, the needs in our community are not. Love's Kitchen is running quite low on resources at the moment, and they could certainly use our help. Their work to feed the hungry is remarkable. A great gift idea: donate money in your gift recipient's name to a local charity. Some donations are tax deductable, so the gift comes back around; but the main point is that you will have helped those who need our help the most.

* You may have noticed that Renny is off this weekend. He is visiting with his family in Nebraska for the holidays. Certainly a well earned vacation, he has really done great work for us in his time here. We are fortunate to have a guy like Renny manning the fort on the weekend shift.

* I sure hated to see Meridian and Wayne County fall this weekend in the state championship games. But, what an incredible accomplishment! A big congratulations to all of our local football teams for a great season.

* The weather looks pretty good. Tomorrow (Sunday) will be cool and dry, with highs near 50. Moisture will increase Monday and Tuesday, with our next chance of rain coming Wednesday. Cooler air will likely return by the end of the work week, but the extent of that cold air intrusion remains a bit unclear at this point.

* Have a wonderful Sunday...
