Larry's Update

I'm not sure how this Blog is going to go. It's has been the most stressful  week that I have had since I have been a member. You add the stress of no work on the wall, along with the building Dept. possible wanting fire sprinklers in the gazebo, you add the need for a structural engineer to design something that has worked fine for 30 years, plus as bar manager I have got to resolve some possible problems that may be happening with the volunteer  help. I'm not thru yet, I still have to prepare for the Area 2 meeting that will be here on the 22nd & 23rd. Well I do see some light at the end of the tunnel. It really has not helped my head ach but I will get over it. The structural engineer called me today and I have a meeting with him on Wed. He seems to have a fairly simple solution to the problem that should satisfy the county. My contractor had his I'V bag removed from his leg on Friday and will be getting the stiches out on Monday, hopes to be back on the job on Tuesday.  Talked to some one from the Area 2 people and it seems that this meeting will be only for Legion Officers not AUX & SAL maybe 50 people. OK back to what has happened at the Post this week. Placed our orders on Monday put them away on Tuesday, no big deal. Wednesday's Karaoke only hand 6 singer's we will not be renewing our contract that will be up on April 9th. Thursday is always a good day with free lunch and WHAM -BAM BINGO.  Friday's Queen of Hearts draw went to Larry Ash and his pick was envelope 13, to tell you the truth I forgot what card was there, but It was not the Queen. The Reward for Friday will be $5,700.00. After the Queen  "the Pocket full of Blues " band did a great job in entertaining the troops.  Sunday was District 28 meeting in Seaside , I was nominated for the 2nd Vice position, that I will decline at the next meeting. I had a water board meeting at my house so I did not get to watch the race but I do have the results. I'st place went to Mary for $125.00 and 12 points also she won one of the $1.00 boards for $40.00  2nd place went to Jim & Margit for $75.00 and 10 point. Jim Davis and myself won the second $1.00 board for $40.00. Don't forget we will be having Corn Beef & Cabbage on Friday night and March Birthday celebration on Sat. with Music by "Mambo Wally".
