Hey – happy morning to ya! Let’s look around:
• The Duck Soup Inn ended its season last weekend & will be back next spring – here’s a note from them wishing you & me well:
See you for dinner April 13, 2012! Have a spectacular winter. Be warm, eat well and laugh often.
+++++++++++++++
• Today is the sixteenth anniversary for Dilys & Carol at Serendipity Bookstore – yep, that’s right: they opened on Halloween in 1995! Drop by & congratulate them on the next sixteen! Wahoo!

• Nice to see Meaghan McCormick out & about yesterday with baby Sapphire…
++++++++++++++
• Sports check: The FHHS football guys lost in their playoff game at Kings 41-13 to end their season – good hustle, and a never-say-die attitude will be what this team will be remembered for. Way to go, guys!
Meanwhile, the volleyball girls wrapped it up with their season-ending playoff tourney over the weekend – just wait’ll next year!
+++++++++++++
• Anna Maria at the Coho Restaurant is looking forward to Wednesday:

The greenhouse is taking shape, across from the middle & high school....
• Jenny Wilson at Friday Harbor High oversees the students’ community projects, and she reports about the progess with the greenhouse you see going up across from school:
Ryan, just before the building starts...
Last Saturday and Sunday students and volunteers began putting up the greenhouse! Yay!
It is more than halfway up now, so I thought I would send you some pictures. Our adult volunteers were Terry Whalen, John Stamey, Jim Cole, Marion Melville, Chris Wilson, Cathy Cole, and Linda Cobos. Kids were Ryan Cole, Parker Satin, Cody Pierce, Nick Falls, Mars Le Baron, Sean McLaughlin, Meghan Cole, and Liam Cole. Building materials were donated by Browne’s Lumber. Friday Harbor Rental and Saw shop let us use a digging machine for the holes, and the money for the project has been donated by the Gates Foundation.
