Writing a final news column has proven to be more difficult than I expected. I started last week and then started again and the words just don’t seem to want to be in print. I thought I had a great amount of wisdom to share but maybe the words will develop into a final column next week.

Friday, February 25th will be my final official day in the Cottonwood Extension District Office in Hays. I have asked Donna Maskus, a master food volunteer for many years, to help me with a program on scones and the program will be held in Hays. If you would like to join us Friday, February 25th beginning at 12:10 pm, we will meet at the Extension Office meeting room at 601 Main Street in Hays.

Following the program we you can stop by anytime between 1 and 3 pm on Friday for some scones and tea. Donna and I have baked and tried a variety of recipes and we will share the best with you in a handout. We also have many past Kansas Wheat Commission booklets from the past that we would like to share.

I realize most Barton County friends won’t drive to Hays but never fear I know I will see you in the future. If you are not able to come, we can still get you a handout with scone recipes. Don’t be a stranger to the Extension Office and all the Extension activities in the future.

I don’t believe in forever good-byes. I know I will meet up with you in the future. Good Luck to all of you as you continue your good work in your community. And if those words of wisdom pop into my mind this week, maybe I will be allowed one more column.
