Good morning from Collegeville,

We did get some rain this week so the garden is doing well. I dug one hill of potatoes and the bounty was great. I ate my first baked Yukon Gold. I use the recipe that Dad gave me, boil the potato for 10 minutes and then wrap in aluminum foil and bake for one hour at 400 degrees, turning the potato at 30 minutes. Try it sometime.

Collegeville Companies broke ground this week for Millstream Village across from the College of Saint Benedict in St. Joseph. I am going to purchase one of the four “cottages” in Millstream Village. The address will be “some number” Colman Court in honor of Sister Colman O’Connell. She was at the ground breaking also. There will be a six pack of Lost Trout Brown Ale in my frig in case you stop by.

Another Millstream Villager does have a home for sale on Kramer Lake the you may want to take a look at it, . www.29321kraemerlakerd.com .

The APHC show this week is the first of the summer compilations series, with a program devoted to the family vacation. Special guests include Joe Ely singing “The Highway is My Home”, Gillian Welch. David Rawlings, The Wailin’ Jennys and Studs Terkel plus Al Franken. Enjoy the show
