The Wagnon family reunion was at the West Saline Community Center last Sunday.  The day before that, we celebrated the annual All Class Reunion in the same place with 93 in attendance this year.  We had an excellent time and it was good to reunite with old friends.  Visitors were greatly impressed with the New Edinburg Museum and encouraged me to keep up the good work; I'm grateful they enjoyed it.

I didn't open the museum last Sunday and I won't this Sunday either since I figure few will venture out from under the AC at home long enough to make the trip; I know I won't.
