Edmunds Treasurer Corrie Kirklen Sarah Cousins Elliott David R. Ure American, Why I Love Her You ask me why I love her? Well, give me time, and I'll explain... Have you seen a Kansas sunset or an Arizona rain? Have you drifted on a bayou down Louisiana way? Have you watched the cold fog drifting over San Francisco Bay? Have you heard a Bobwhite calling in the Carolina pines? Or heard the bellow of a diesel in the Appalachia mines? Does the call of Niagara thrill you when you hear her waters roar? Do you look with awe and wonder at a Massachusetts shore... Where men who braved a hard new world, first stepped on Plymouth Rock? And do you think of them when you stroll along a New York City dock? Have you seen a snowflake drifting in the Rockies...way up high? Have you seen the sun come blazing down from a bright Nevada sky? Do you hail to the Columbia as she rushes to the sea... Or bow your head at Gettysburg...in our struggle to be free? Have you seen the mighty Tetons?...Have you watched an eagle soar? Have you seen the Mississippi roll along Missouri's shore? Have you felt a chill at Michigan, when on a winters day, Her waters rage along the shore in a thunderous display? Does the word "Aloha"... make you warm? Do you stare in disbelief When you see the surf come roaring in at Waimea reef? From Alaska's gold to the Everglades...from the Rio Grande to Maine... My heart cries out... my pulse runs fast at the might of her domain. You ask me why I love her?... I've a million reasons why. My beautiful America... beneath Gods' wide, wide sky.

Seven Very good, says the teacher. Your dad did a good job. What comes after ten? A jack, says the kid. Remember: Live a good and honorable life, then when you get older and think back, you ll enjoy it a second time.

4 Page 4 Ingredients GRANDMA'S STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB PIE Crust: 2 cups all-purpose flour, plus additional flour as needed, up to 1/4 cup 1/2 cup cake flour (recommended: Soft As Silk) 3 teaspoons sifted powdered sugar 1/2 cup butter-flavored shortening (recommended: Crisco) 1/4 cup salted butter Pinch salt 1 egg 2 teaspoons vinegar 1/4 cup ice cold water Filling: 2 1/2 cups chopped red rhubarb, fresh 2 1/2 cups de-stemmed, washed and cut strawberries (in larger pieces) 1 1/2 cups sugar (1 1/4 cups for high altitude) 2 tablespoons minute tapioca 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 3 tablespoons butter, cubed small 1 egg white beaten with 1 teaspoon water Large granule sugar Crust Preparation Directions: Using 2 pastry blenders, blend the flours, sugar, shortening, butter and salt. Whisk the egg, vinegar and water in a 2-cup measure and pour over the dry ingredients incorporating all the liquid without overworking the dough. Toss the additional flour over the ball of dough and chill if possible. Divide the dough into 2 disks. Roll out 1 piece of dough to make a bottom crust. Place into a pie dish. Put dish in refrigerator to chill. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Filling Preparation: Mix the rhubarb, strawberries, sugar, tapioca, flour, zest and juice of lemon, dash of cinnamon, and vanilla. Mix well in a large bowl and pour out into chilled crust. Dot the top of the filling with the butter. Brush edges of pie crust with egg white wash. Roll out the other piece of dough and place over filling. Crimp to seal edges. Brush with egg white wash and garnish with large granule sugar. Collar with foil and bake at 425 degrees F for 15 minutes. Decrease temperature to 375 degrees F and bake for an additional 45 to 50 minutes, or until the filling starts bubbling. Higher altitude will take 450 degrees F and 400 degrees F respectively. Also, you can use a pie bird for extra decor. Let cool before serving.
