<font face="Comic Sans MS">Hi folks,<br>
<br>
Man, I wasn't ready for frost this morning! And I suspect neither were
my little plants I had already set outside. I didn't have time to look
this morning before coming to work, but I hope they're not frost
bitten. I didn't think it was supposed to get quite that cold last
night. I'm definitely ready for spring full-time. I even started on
giving one of our shaggy dogs her spring hair cut. She's not fond of
the process, so I have to do it gradually. Right now she looks almost
bald on her back, while the rest of her is shaggy. (It might be a good
thing she's blind and can't see herself!) I put the discarded fur to
good use though. I have a suet feeder for the birds in the front yard
that I don't use that much, so I took the fur from her clipping and
stuffed it into the little baskets for the birds to use making nests.
I've seen a couple over there pulling out bits to make soft linings for
their future families. <br>
<br>
I had to go to the Maintenance Building the other day to pick up a box
that had been delivered for the Cafeteria and noticed all the beautiful
tulips blooming alongside Baker Hall. They really add a splash of
color and cheer to the area and our campus. <br>
<br>
In order to allow our staff plenty of preparation time for upcoming
events, <b><big>we will not be opening the Cyber Cafe today</big></b>.
Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.<br>
<br>
There will be a PAWS meeting this evening at 7:00 at the Public
Library, as well as an adoption day at Atwood's in Poteau on Saturday.<br>
<br>
There will be a <b>Recycling Day</b> held this <b>Saturday from 8:00
to 2:00</b> in the <b>parking lot of the OSU Extension Center</b>,
just south of the railroad tracks on Hwy. 2 South. Items they will be
accepting during this event include: paper, magazines, cardboard,
plastic bottles/containers with #1, #2 or #5 designations, aluminum
cans, household batteries, automobile batteries, "clean" steel cans and
ink cartridges. This will be the first of a series of three of these
events throughout the year, so after Saturday keep saving these items
for the next Recycling Day in a few months. Look for the Big Belly
Recycling containers that are permanently placed in various spots in
town, too, as Wilburton gets on the recycling bandwagon. <br>
<br>

Smoked sausage and roasted vegetables<br>
or Corn dogs<br>
Batter bites (potatoes)<br>
