Greetings from all of the Prai-
rie Plaza folks.
It has been rather nice to have
some damp weather for a
change. Almost an inch of rain
here at the Plaza this week, so
things are looking up for all of
us. Better get all those mowers
sharpened, guys.
I had a nice surprise Sunday
when my Garden City kids
showed up for a few hours. We
had time to eat out and visit a
little. They got home just in time
for the tornado warnings. Hope
that area finally got some mois-
ture.
Our only May birthday here
at the Plaza is Mary McFee on
May 20. Hope her day is very
special.
