The Red Hat Christmas party was held Saturday afternoon at Lila Fannik’s home in Max.

Sunday afternoon, Steve and Joanie Narum of Douglas visited with Aunt Margaret Scurlock and Aunt Lila Fannik of Max.

Rural Max areas experienced zero visibility this afternoon for a ‘scary’ time. Fortunately the snowfall didn’t last long so despite the winds, the visibility cleared up in time for people to go home from their jobs. Temperatures were in the 40’s and dropped immediately. By 6:00 P.M. the windchill was a minus 20 degrees! We are supposed to have severely low windchills for several days now, with a warm-up on Christmas Day.

Merry Christmas one and all!
