“Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith.” I Corinthians 16: 13 The best way to escape temptation is to run to God.

The Weisbrod Hospital Auxiliary members had their business meeting and lunch at J J’s Ranch House in February. They will be meeting on Wednesdays rather than Tuesdays in March 8th and April 12t at 11:00 a.m. since the J J’s owner, Jennifer Schofield, will be having cancer treatments on Tuesdays. This is the reason J J’s will be closed on Tuesdays for a while.

When Windy walked into the Mule Barn during that cold snap last week, we knew he was getting frantic for an audience. He has a hard time getting us to listen to his version of history, his notions of what was going on now, and his prognostications of the future of mankind.

But it was cold, and sitting out on the bench and ambushing listeners didn’t work too well right now for Windy Wilson, so here he came. We gave each other the wink and dragged out a chair for him.

“What d’you know, Windy? Cold enough for ya?”
