Memorial Service


A memorial service for Doreen Saunders was held last Wednesday at Good Samaritan Hospital, where Doreen had been a volunteer for many years. Several current and past residents of the Lago Vista were in attendance.

Recycling - a slight rant

Unless I am thoroughly misinformed about current practices, the following items (all of which I pulled from our recycling bins just this afternoon) are not recyclable:

Wooden chairs
Straw hats
Dead plant material
Wicker waste baskets
Mop handles

Spare a thought for the under-paid workers who have to comb through this stuff, and realize that when the recycling stream is contaminated, a lot of otherwise recyclable material may be lost as a result.
