Island Falls News
Recent guests of Susan York has been her son, Carrol Bates and wife, Nicole and their two children, daughter Ora and son Carrol Bates,111, from Glenburn. While here they visited with friends and relatives in the area and plan to return soon for another visit. Cheryl Sewall Connelly and husband, Peter, have been enjoying the recent warm weather at the Sewall camp on lower Mattawamkeag Lake and will soon be closing the camp for the coming winter. Have heard from Richard and Claudette DeLong, former residents who now live in Florida, and they are doing well, enjoying the balmy weather there. Have been out with my leaf catcher once so far and plan to wait awhile before doing more as the leaves are still mostly on. By the middle of October they will be falling faster and will keep me busy then. Lots of apples have fallen off the tree by the end of my driveway but I still haven’t seen any deer around to feast on them. I go out every couple of days to kick them into the grass so I won’t run over them and make a squashy mess. On Sept. 27 I was very happy to look out my back window about 5:00 p.m. and there were two yearling deer grazing away on the green grass. They were not there long, tho, and so far, have not returned – as I have kept a sharp eye out. Am hoping they will return before too long. Will be putting out birdseed again soon as the weather is getting chilly again and I miss seeing the birds around.
