John and I have been traveling. It was bucket list time. For years, I have wanted to see the aspens turn gold in the fall. We have planned this trip tentatively several times but plans always fell through. The trip was worth the drive. We rode the narrow gauge train from Durango, Colorado, to Silverton, Colorado.
It’s been a very busy month! The Board of Directors and I have been working very hard on our largest fundraiser of the year, Wild Game Dinner. Tickets are available for sale at the Chamber office as well as Mason Feed Store on Saturday mornings. Proceeds from this event help maintain Chamber office expenses and promote tourism to Mason.
With the calendar change to October it seems that fall is truly here. Friday night football is keeping the town excited, the temperature is pleasant and it is more comfortable to keep the windows open, and there are plenty of activities to fill the weekends. The Farmer’s Market on the Square was a great success this past weekend and will be repeated on Saturdays, there are special activities and concerts around town, fund raisers for the Education Foundation and others, and a Sat ...

The world isn’t going to stop, just because you didn’t get it all done.
A tale of two guys
“Where you from?”
Since I try to be sociable, at least when my phone isn’t getting good reception, I posed the question to a fellow in a clothing store in Charlotte Amalie, on St. Thomas, USVI. Tourists in the islands rarely ask one another’s name, since they’ll just forget it anyway, and there’s no use asking how anyone is doing.
In conjunction with World Space Week, the library is sponsoring a free showing of two space documentaries: Chasing Pluto: A Historic Journey to the Edge of our Solar System, and Invisible Universe Revealed. We hope you’ll take time out this Saturday to come to the Odeon at 1:00 P.M.
