Searching for Treasure

I am a beachcomber, I reckon. Didn’t know what that was until I saw it in a magazine the other day. About 4 or 5 years ago I was in Canada on Lake of the Woods fishing for Walleye, Bass, Pike, Crappie and Yellow Perch. I’m like that in Canada; the fishing is up and down beneath the boat… no casting. You just find 25 to 30 feet of water and bob a jig or a minnow up and down off the bottom until something grabs it and then you put whatever you can net into the live well and put on a new minnow.

School Days in the ‘60s

Last week I shared some writings of my father, Lyle Wood. In particular, he had written about the ten years he served on the Flippin School Board, 1965-75. He recalled some of the men he’d served with on the Board, as well as naming some of the teachers and staff hired during that time. I recognized all those names and it got me thinking about the teachers I have had.
