A reminder that Saturday, July 26 at 6 p.m., you are invited to an old fashioned ice cream social at the Butler Harris Rainwater Museum. The social will combine ice cream, patriotism, live music, and hot dogs. There will be games and activities for the children, and a horseshoe court for pitching horseshoes. Bring your lawn chairs or blanket to sit on the grounds of the museum and listen to country, gospel and blue grass music. The high point of the afternoon will be cracking open the freezers and dipping out the smooth “just frozen ice cream.” There will be several different flavors and delicious toppings. Nothing beats homemade ice cream. A hot dog, chips, soft drink and a cup of ice cream will be $5, or you can have “just ice cream or just a hot dog,” for $1. If you have questions or need advance tickets, please call Martha Little, 256/378-0336. Wedding bells will ring next Saturday, July 19 for Emily Mathis and Austin Bourgeois of Tennessee. They will be married at First United Methodist Church with the reception following at Morgan Creek Winery. Sunday afternoon, there was a lovely bridal tea to honor Emily.
