Right now, I am sitting here like a kid at his first dance. What do I do now? Hopefully, the chills running up and down my back will disappear. They never did the night of my first dance. Boy, was I nervous. Guess I'm still shy and quiet! LOL. You know, I can't remember dancing that first night. Just standing around with a bunch of guys hoping some girl would ask me to dance but scared stiff that one would. How many dances did I attend without getting out on the floor? No idea but the number has to be very high. Wall flower. Oh, how I hated being called that! Shouldn't have been upset because it was the truth.
My best friend is a 12 year old dog named Bear. He is part Lab and Newfoundland. He is mostly black with a few white patches and now some gray hair. If you see Bear, I can't be far away. He stays very close and follows me from room to room or outside. If I leave without him, he lays down right inside the front door and waits for me to return. Bear is very obedient and listens better than any other dog I have had. Boy if I could find a woman to listen like he does! That will cause some remarks to be fired at me but that's okay.
With time, this blog should take shape and make very little sense. Please come back and see what nonsense I get into.

I'm glad you took my advice on the blog you old coot. Maybe it will keep you out of trouble. I doubt it.
your beautiful daughter-in-law
I came upon your blog while looking for information about the Newville Fountain Festival. I have enjoyed reading it very much. I know that you're one of the "Rife boys, but I'm not sure which one. I know there was David and I think Dallas(?)...not sure of the 3rd, but I think that's you. And I remember your parents and sister, Jane, very well.I'm Mike Weidner, and I lived in Newville for my first 49 years - 21 on Fairfield Street,4 on West Main, and 24 on East Main. I've lived in Chambersburg for the past 15 and hoping for a total of 49 here as well.. Thanks for sparkingsomany memories.
