Odds & Ends
by MYRTLE HEIDEMAN
Hope all had a happy and blessed Easter. Ours was very quiet. Do want to thank all for the cards, telephone calls and best wishes.
Guess by now many of you know that the café is closed in Uhland and missed by many. If you don’t mind driving a few miles to Niederwald, you will find good food at “Grumpy’s” on the right of Hway 21 going north. Call Mike Cowan at 512-398-1910, he may have more than burgers.
