HOUSE FIRE IN SWEET

A mobile home was lost to fire this morning in Sweet. The home of Mike Misnick was reported in flames around 10:00AM. Apparently, no one was home at the time but unfortunately, the family dog died.

PLEASE FEED THIS DOG!!

A big white dog, similar to the one off to the right, has been roaming the area for quite some time. This dog was last seen around Perkins Lane. We would like to catch this dog so he/she will be safe and well fed. Let's try and gain it's trust so it can be caught. Chris S. will provide food if it is frequenting your place. Call Chris at 584-9302, if you see this dog or can catch it.

THIS IS A NICE STORY!!

With the weather outside being cold and gloomy, maybe you're spending more time on your computer. I thought I'd share some blogs that I enjoy and follow on a regular basis.

http://www.hip2save.com/ is the money saving website that Susan J. is keeping busy with. If you are a couponer or would like to be, this is the website! Save money on all sorts of items just by following this blog on regular basis.

http://www.dailycoyote.net/ is mainly a blog of photographs of a coyote being raised by a young woman in Wyoming. Her photography is beautiful and her story is interesting as well.

http://www.andelinempire.blogspot.com/ (The Boonie Life) Carrie's photography is amazing. What she captures through the lens of her camera is so fun and creative. She truly has a gift. The words and pictures are something that her family will cherish forever.

I have posted this list off to the left for your future reference.

FUNDRAISER FOR GARDEN VALLEY LIBRARY

I received an e-mail today about a fundraiser for the Garden Valley library. The book "All Along the River" by Nellie Ireton Mills tells about the pioneers along the Payette River, and includes history on Sweet and Ola. The book has been out of print for years but as a fundraiser, the Garden Valley library has had it reprinted.

I contacted the library and ordered my copy, if you would like a copy, please send a check for $29.00 ($25.00 for the book and $4.00 shipping) to and payable to:

Garden Valley Library
