Sorry my column was missing last
week due to illness. Too late to wish
my readers a joyful Thanksgiving but
not too late to say that I hope you did.
The Harvest Festival, once again,
met with all good expectations. Seven-
ty people, including members of Mar-
vin Chapel United Methodist Church,
the Job Corps Choir, the Majesties, the
Revs. JoAnn Alexander and Kent Tice,
their children, local members and
friends, enjoyed a typical Thanksgiv-
ing dinner and an evening of music
and singing.
Gregory Dillow left Friday,
November 11, with a group of other
ii
hunters for Ashland, Maine. He en-
joyed every aspect of the trip which in-
eluded hunting for white-tail deer and
black boar. Three deer were bagged.
He enjoyed the scenery even though
the land was flat, swampy and
woodland -- the north woods of Maine.
The group returned November 20 at 4
a.m., tired but satisfied with the trip,
Many pictures were taken of their ex-
perience. Plans are being made to
return next year to this area where
they found the folks very friendly,
speaking with a French accent.
Bob and Susan Sheely, along with
her sister, Jane Rissler, spent the
Thanksgiving holidays at Long Marsh
Meadow while their sister and brother-
in-law, Pat Rissler and Jim Rogers,
SUMMIT POINT
ii i
Families. A group of related people.
After thinking about this week's col-
umn, that word, families, just kept
coming into my mind.
Everywhere I went, by myself, with
Am)' or with Daniel. I kept seeing
families. It was Thanksgiving week
and children were home from school
and members of families had travel-
ed long or short distances to be
together and to take advantage of time
away from their usual activities.
When I went shopping. I saw
families discussing what gifts to buy
each other and children hinting at
what they would like Santa to bring.
When Daniel. Am), and t went to a
restaurant in Winchester for
Thanksgiving dinner, the tables were
all filled with families, some tables of
many people or some with just young
couples and their very small children
all dressed up in ties or ruffles.
And when Daniel and J ate dinner at
Shu Chen's in Charles Town last Satur-
day night, the restaurant was ab-
solutely packed - not a table was emp-
ty...all families. I recognized several
people having dinner with their
college-aged offspring - home on
break, and the), all seemed so happy
to be together. At my little bed and
breakfast my rooms were filled all
week, with families - couples - who
were together in an area not familiar
to them, but they were still together.
When I started calling some people to
see how they had spent their week,
again the common refrain was that
they had spent the time with family -
the Eisners, the Hales, the Stagners,
the Snyders, the Slavers, and the
Welshs, and the list goes on and on and
Oil.
I have always envied so very much
the fact that everyone in Summit Point
seems to be related to everyone else
- one huge family. At Thanksgiving we
are just that - thankful to have family
- to be together and to have so much
compared to the rest of the world and
to live in this beautiful village.
Last week. Edith Gtassford put a
note in my door to tell me that she was
recently called to Kingwood, W. Va.,
where her brother is very ill. Daniel
Marner, Baltimore, Md., spent an
evening with the Glassfords before go-
ing to see West Virginia University
play football.
Last week was very hectic for me.
I drove Amy to Winchester to have her
wisdom teeth removed, had guests
every night, spent time studying and
doing paperwork for my college
classes and spent Friday with Daniel
to celebrate his birthday. Now it's
hard to believe that Christmas is so
close. So much to do and so little time.
Does everyone else fell so rushed and

only way the street lights in the village

Martinsburg. In the afternoon, Scott
and Sherry Wolford, Scbtt, Jr., Mar-

had quite an experience on their way
when about ten miles from their home
they were in an accident. While
waiting at a traffic light, a passenger
car being driven at a high rate of
speed, ran into their vehicle, forcing
it into a truck. The three Kehne's were
taken by ambulance to New Windsor
Hospital, but later dismissed. Their
truck was demolished. Terry's parents
were notified and came to the hospital.
After returning to their home, the
Kehne's then started for Tuscawilla,
where they arrived safe and sound to
find her parents anxiously awaiting
them and wondering why the delay.
