I had a long conversation today with our friend and one time neighbor Scott Munro.  He told me the sad news that his wife Kat passed away last weekend.

Scott and Kat recently moved to the Florida Atlantic coast, just south of Jacksonville, from Rhode Island.  They were beginning to get settled into the retirement lifestyle.  I don’t have any details, but she passed away very quickly last Saturday.

Keep Kat, Scott and their families in your prayers.

I took some info that Scott included on his Facebook page, with his permission –

Hi- Here’s next year’s bookclub selections (attached). I’ll also post one in the mail shack. Happy Reading everyone!

I got this message from Harbor Propane..

recent email follows.. contact Randy if you are interested in bidding….

All, the association is raising some money in order to make improvements to our boat ramp.  There have been a couple fund raisers that have helped.  Recently owner Pat Hart donated a very nice trip to his lodge up in Alaska.  I will post details soon, but the intent is to auction the trip off and use the proceeds on the ramp project.  My understanding is that bidding is open and the winner will be announced over the labor day holiday activities.  I will post more details soon.

Thanks Pat Hart!

Thanks Rhys and his son for the new sign on the community building…

Most of us have a boat or 2 and we need a healthy boat ramp.  And who doesn’t like mirror balls? Come to Bob Brunkow’s hangar on August 11, at 6pm and get together with your neighbors for a nice event.

We recently lost another long time resident and friend – Sandy Berman.  Sandy fought some awful cancer for many years.  One thing that always struck me was how cheerful she could be, even when she was going thru treatment.  Sandy you will be missed by our community.
