Sunday with Tuba Dan

The Tuba Dan Show · Sun Aug 9, 2026

Good morning everybody.

Time to wake up and greet the world with a smile.

Oh

say can you see by

the

dawn's early light what so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming.

Whose broad stripes and bright stars Through the perilous fight O'er the ramparts we watched Were so gallantly streaming And the rocket's red glare The bombs bursting in air

that our flag was still there.

Oh, say does that star-spangled banner

Hey, how about that one for starting off a Sunday morning with Eddie Blazonczyk and his versatile versatile tones from Chicago?

You don't want to say versatile, versatile tones too fast with your mouth full of crackers.

That could be a little dangerous, especially if you're in close proximity to other people.

Hi, everybody.

Tuba Dan here for the Sunday morning mini poker fest brought to you by our good friends, Joe and Kathy Blazinski, their families, and of course all the wonderful people that work at Mr. and Mrs. Peace.

They will be opening the doors in about another 24 minutes or so, so get on over there.

1100 west finalized street of Ripon's West Side and have a delicious breakfast, noon lunch, or brunch.

You can even pick up things today that you can reheat tomorrow and Tuesday, Monday and Tuesday, because you're not going to be open, but you can still pick up some things that you can reheat.

Always delicious food.

at Mr. and Mrs. Peace.

Still celebrating their 11th anniversary of being in business.

Hey, we got Ray's Jolly Chaps appearing this afternoon from 1 to 4.30 at Willow Falls in Johnsonville that we love to dance club and invite you out.

Big dance, a really big one.

I believe this is Ray's first appearance there, so I hope all of our good listeners will get over there and support Ray's band.

Here's what they sound like.

I gotta tell you,

Several years ago when we were still running our band Tom Kines did a lot of the concertina work from Stratford with us if you remember Well, they helped us out on several occasions when Tom couldn't make it and so we kind of owe him a big

How would you say favor back?

So get over there and support Ray and the Jolly Chaps today and bring a whole carload and get those grandkids out dancing on the dance floor.

Here's a nice one for Joe P. and Mr. and Mrs. P. Polzinski, a song entitled The Who Pays

Walls.

all the way from North Dakota, a little bit of Julie Lee and White Rose, and a nice snappy polka entitled The Elbow Bendered Polka.

Well, we've had many opportunities in the last several days to get over to Mr. and Mrs. Pease.

In fact, last Wednesday, Tommy Hayes from Stratford came down to pick up his trumpet that Danny had fixed in Oshkosh at Danny Junior's Music Repair Shop.

And anyway, after that, they came out to Mr. and Mrs. Pease, Danny Bowen, Tom Hayes, and we went to Mr. and Mrs. Pease for brunch.

And when the food came, Tom says, is that all for me or are we sharing?

I said, no, you have your work cut out for your son.

That's all yours.

He finished it off.

He said, that has to be one of the best meals I've had in a long, long time.

I said, don't tell your wife.

Don't tell your wife you said that.

Well, then we went back again on Friday.

to celebrate Bernie's birthday.

She turned 39 again over there in Montgomery so happy belated to Bernadette Kennan and also want to thank everybody who's coming out today for the big dance at Johnsonville at Willow Falls.

They got Ray and his jolly chaps coming up to play some music.

Joe P says come on over get something great for breakfast or brunch then head over and get some exercise in Johnsonville.

We have Babe Wagner coming up right now.

And they're going to do it at nice German walls.

There's a nice one there by Babe Wagner in the band all the way from Minnesota doing a great job.

Again today the dance is from 1 to 430 raised jollychaps in Johnsonville.

Bring a whole carload and have some dancing good fun too.

I want to wish you all a very happy birthday out there all you folks.

Having birthdays or wedding anniversaries.

I got a nice note here from Karen Madigan over in Rosendale.

They have their big chicken dinner, serving at one o'clock today, bratch, hamburgers, hot dogs, and cheese curds, also available.

A poke of service will be done at, started at 10 o'clock by the Mel Albright Band that's going on today.

I got that late in the mail, so that's going on today.

If you want to head over to Rosendale, it's at Taylor Park.

in Rosendale.

I believe that's just close to the high school there, right off of Highway 23 in Rosendale's west side.

10 o'clock poker service today in Rosendale.

And then of course they got a lot of little burgers, broths and a chicken barbecue put on by the Rosendale Lions.

They want to thank everybody for coming up for that today too.

And thanks Karen for the heads up on that as well.

If you have any events taking place, non-profit organizations

you know fireman's picnics trip picnics get-togethers any fundraisers let it get that to me at least a week ahead in advance because I pre-record my show and I can give you some decent exposure for that as well coming up next Sunday they got that big st.

John's picnic in Princeton

And of course, Ralph Tal's trio will be playing the music.

I think he starts at 11 o'clock in the morning for that.

It goes to 1 or 2 o'clock.

The Ralph Tal trio in Rosendale St.

John's picnic.

We'll tell you more about that in the next hour.

Anyway, here's Roger Bright in the band from New Glarus with a little bit of a one-in-a-title, the Cherokee Pocah.

Nice by Roger Brighton, the boys, all the way from New Glaris, Wisconsin.

Joe Posiski's thought for the day is this.

One great thing about being a senior citizen is meals with your children are now a pleasure.

Boy, I can think back when I used to take our, Kork and I would take our kids out to eat and they would sit there and squabble before their food would come.

Talk about having ants in your pants.

I mean, it really was bad.

We got Bob Keith in the band coming up with a dandy one.

Don't forget to get over to Mr. and Mrs. Pease this morning.

They will be starting to serve food in about nine minutes.

Joey will be unlocking the door.

Get over there and get something good.

Also pick up some of Kathy's delicious pastry.

Kathy and Jack, you cook their all day long making cakes for special occasions and you can order one too if you like.

Retirement parties, weddings,

birthdays, baby showers, whatever you need a cake for, or just something nice to say, I love you.

And they have many other wonderful selections in their display case, pastry display case, when you walk in the front door.

So you can check that out for yourself, but definitely pick up something good to share or have yourself later in the day.

Bobby Keith in the band coming up from Manitowoc with a little bit of the blacksmith shop walls.

providing wonderful meals for all of our friends in this area.

Get over there today.

They'll be opening it up in about four minutes or so.

Mr. and Mrs. P's eatery on Ripon's west side.

You know, the one thing I think Joe wishes he had a lot bigger parking lot.

But I tell you, people park on the curb and they'll walk a ways to get there if they can't get up close.

It's a good thing that they have such a big inside.

And with the nice weather, you can even eat outside on the polka patio.

if the weather is cooperating.

We got Tony Wolf coming

up.

Oh, something nice by Tony and Betty Wolf and the kids there, the Deutschmeisters from old times in Minnesota.

While we got time for one more, we're gonna squeak in here.

Head over to Mr. and Mrs. P. She's unlocking your door.

I think he's walking over to the front door shortly.

We got a nice song for all you good folks going out today and spending time with family, friends.

Don't forget, wherever you go, take Christ with you as your co-pilot and also,

Listen to WRPN radio every chance you get.

Here we go.

Hey, I

A little bit of Andy Griffith.

Hi everybody.

Tuba Dan here for the next two hours.

Thank you so much for getting up with me and keeping me company.

I'd be so lonely without you guys.

Enjoying my morning cup of coffee with some delicious pastry.

I picked up from Mr. and Mrs. P's eatery, Kathy and Jackie, wonderful bakers.

You guys got to try that today.

It's really good stuff.

Our Sunday Gospel Show brought to you by Vanderbrink's Produce Stand on Ripon's West Side, Willow Creek Creamery, North of Berlin.

But when you get to Highway 49 and 21 four-way stop sign, a couple miles north of Berlin on 49, turn

East on 21 and you're right there at Willow Creek Creamery.

We have Buttson March and Funeral Home with us today from Ripon, Rosendale's Tower View Assisted Living, the Horacan Bank member FDIC, your Equal Housing Lender, Pre-B Sales and Service on Ripon's West Side Maple Crest, Assisted and Independent Living at 150 Douglas Street.

We have the Hy-Vee grocery store on Ripon's west side.

Also, we have Prairie Place at 749 East Oshkosh Street, Ripon's northeast side.

Right on Highway 44, it's Prairie Place.

Holman, Chevrolet, Buick, GMC, Randy, Tony, Chewie, and Curtis, all the guys in the sales department, willing to help you out, find the right vehicle for the right time and right price.

Graphics, sign the letter, company.

You gotta love that Count family.

We have Cacrete,

your concrete flatwork contractors.

We also have pedals and plows on Kaufman Road north of Rush Lake on County Road, Ego West on Kaufman Road, and you are there.

Pedals and plows are open today noon until five this afternoon.

Rounding it all off, we have brewer heating and cooling, the brewer families.

We got a song I always enjoyed by this group, the Dixie Echoes.

And with some of the rain we got recently, I'm sure some of you would think we maybe need a little bit more.

How about suddenly a

rainbow?

The lightning flashed.

It's like the thunder shook the very ground.

The wind was bending great old trees.

The rain was pouring down.

But somewhere hidden in the dark,

a ray of light was found.

Suddenly the world knows Suddenly the love of God shines through

always are at hand.

We're living in this sinful world is more than

I can bear.

I just close my eyes and I see the Lord

for

The Dixie Echos, I hope you like that one.

I always enjoyed listening to those guys sing.

As many times that you've driven into Rippon, from say, Pickett and Oshkosh on Highway 44, or Exit did Rippon heading toward Oshkosh on 44, right at the city limits is this large dark blue building called Prairie Place.

Have you ever wondered what the interior of that building looks like?

I've been in there many times, countless times.

I have so many folks that I've known over the years that I delivered their mail for 32 and a half years.

Many of the folks now reside there.

When I tell you, I'm not kidding.

When I say that, it's like a five-star resort without the high cost.

So many senior citizens have toiled and worked hard their entire life, saved and scraped and saved some money.

Now they want to retire with a little bit of luxury and ease.

Prairie Place can definitely afford you that opportunity.

I ask you to give them a call, track them out, Prairie Place on Ripon's west, nor other east side.

The phone number at Prairie Place is 748-8900.

Call that number, talk to Jeremiah Groethy or any of the staff, and set up a walking tour in the independent wing on the north side right off of 44, or the assisted level of care on the south end of the building

It's all connected off of Olden Road.

749 East Oshkosh Street.

It's a prairie place.

Wonderful people there.

They'll love your family.

And you, 748-8900.

And you'll find out what the interior of that building looks like.

Vandy brings produce down there with us today too.

So often folks will stop in there on the weekends, but they do have great hours during the weekend, during the week too.

At Vanderbreeks, Monday through Saturday, Barry and Gail on Ripon's west side, with a full array of choices of fresh-garden vegetables.

They're there Monday through Saturdays from 10 to 5.30 and today 10 till 5.

So if you're looking for fresh sweet corn, they got it there.

Also, seedless watermelons, cantaloupes, and everything you can pick out of the garden.

Onions, potatoes, beets, green beans, kalarabi, zucchini.

Oh my goodness, it is so good.

Plus nine varieties of Amish fry pies.

You got to check those out too.

Stop over today before 5, from 10 to 5 at Vanderbink's Prodigy Stand on Ripon's website.

And tell them you listen to the show.

I'd appreciate that.

We got a song by here.

I believe it's the Sons of the

Pioneers.

Where the trees of the forest are like

pipes of an organ And the breeze plays an almond

chord Oh,

the stars are the candles

And they light up the mountains.

Mountains are altars of God.

Oh, the place where I worship is the wide open spaces where the sun warms a peaceful sun.

There's

a carpet of green And a sky blue roof above

I'm welcome there alone Or with

the

one I love In your heart take a good look If you fall

that was nice huh the sons of the pioneers well the rose and dale lions club are having a big picnic today in taylor park and it's today and it starts at 10 o'clock with an outdoor polka worship service music by the mel albright band and then later on they're going to be playing some more music after the service

It's at Taylor Park in Rosendale today.

So bring your lawn chairs if you like to come for the picnic, but come early for the outdoor polka worship service.

There'll be a chicken dinner serving you starts at 11 o'clock after this polka worship service.

Brats, burgers, hot dogs, and cheese curds will also be available.

A tractor pull in Rosendale starts at noon.

I want to thank Karen Madigan for the heads up on that.

That's today.

Starts at 10 o'clock.

at Taylor Park.

I believe Taylor Park isn't right across the street from the Rosendale High School.

I think it is.

I might be wrong, but anyway you guys can find it.

Now tractor pull starts also at noon today as well.

Ah, let's see.

I was going to tell you a little bit about my friends at Brewer Heating and Cooling.

I know so many of you folks out there have been dealing with the heat.

We have hot days and we have some a little cooler, more, how would you say, comfortable days.

But overall, this has been a really warm summer.

Listening to a weather forecaster the other day, a weatherman, he was saying that parts of our country have really been burning up.

If your air conditioner is not running properly, you should get a hold of brewery heating and cooling.

On Ripon's northeast side on North Douglas Street, give them a call and have the technicians come out and fix your AC, your air conditioner.

And when fall comes, if you have any issues with your furnace to keep you warm, give them a call too.

748-6494.

748-6494.

Now as a friendly suggestion,

my senior citizen friends out there, give Brewer a call and if you're not on that yearly maintenance schedule or they come out in spring and check your air conditioner before you need it and then they come back and fall and check your furnace, give them a call 7486494 and ask them to put you on that plan and then they'll send a technician out and they'll call and remind you if you set up a date when that young federal come and fix your furnace or your air conditioning system.

We got a song done here by, ah, I got it all pulled up here, the Dixie Melody Boys.

I wanna go to

The Dixie Eccles, hey we got the Browns coming

up!

This land is your land, this land is my land From California to the New York Islands From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream waters I said this land belongs to you and me

As I went

round that rhythm of highway I saw above me, you're in the skyway

I saw below me, you go to valley I said this land belongs to you and me This land is your land, this land is mine

to gas stream waters I said this land belongs to you and me I roamed, I rambled, I followed my footsteps crossed the golden sands of your diamond desert and all around me a voice kept saying

Said this land belongs to you and me This land is your land, this land is my land From California to the New York Islands From the redwood forest to the Gulf's dream waters I said this land belongs to you and me I said this land belongs to you and me

I said this land will be lost to you and

me.

Very popular group.

A boy and his two sisters, the Browns, going back in time just a wee bit for you.

Oh yeah, pre-be sales and service are with us.

Just keeping you in mind here that the last Saturday of each month, they are not open.

They are closed on the last Saturday to give their employees an extra day to spend with their family and friends.

Pre-V sales and service on Ripon's west side.

You want parts to do it yourself, fix it, your machinery.

Gary and a part shop can help you out.

Monday through Saturdays, that's right, but remember the last Saturday you're not open.

They even have fill-in sales, new and used equipment, and riding lawn mowers to get your lawn cut in a timely fashion.

Mark works in the big shop there with the other mechanics, fixing things that are more technical.

For Gary and part shop mark in the shop itself and fill and sales the three boys work well together Helping farmers young and old alike stay on the land and keep working harvest is very important and let's phase it We got some nice rain and the corn looks pretty good that field corn and hey really popped up Warm temperatures will make that happen, but we also need the good Lord's precipitation to a good rainfall once in a while

doesn't hurt.

It also greens up our lawns too, you ever notice that?

748-2626 is Pre-B sales and service, sending you all of God's blessings and wishes for a very happy week, even if you're not farming, but come and see them for those riding Bobcat zero-turn lawnmowers.

748-2626, come and see them.

It's Prevy Sales and Service, Monday through Friday, 8 to 6, Saturdays, 8 to noon.

That's at Prevy's on Highway 23, Worcester Ribbon.

Tammy Jones, Robinette coming up right now, and I have this song marked that it's a good

one.

The Lord has been so good to me sometimes.

My heart just overflows I have health and happiness And I have a family I love so He has given me salvation And a life that is brand new I can never thank Him enough For all of this and heaven too

All of this and

heaven

too

I'm so blessed just knowing

Lord, you've been so good to me.

You've treated me just like royalty.

And I'm so thankful to you, Lord, for my life and so much more.

Oh, everything you do.

Lord, I want to thank you for all of this and everything.

Now I know that I'm unworthy Of the many blessings I have known But my God, He is a Father He takes care of His own He supplies my every need And I have a home beyond

You have been so good to me

Miss Tammy Jones Robinette one of the songs I had made a little asterisk mark on the CD case to say remind me to play it again sometime Well if you need some concrete work get a hold of my pal Dylan down the street here from where we live on Olden Road K creed concrete flat workers That's what they do for patios sidewalks new Driveways if you put up a building like a new machine shed a pole shed need concrete inside they can do it for you

They've been trained for years and years from a long line of concrete people, the family members, and with that knowledge comes the expertise in being able to do their job right the first time.

You know when you put concrete down, no matter where you put it, you want to reinforce it with some rebar so that it doesn't crack over time, especially if you're putting a lot of weight on it.

because it'll bend and you don't want it to crack.

That's a cake reed right here on Olden Rome.

Give them a call and get a free quote from my friend Dylan.

920-279-8854.

279-8854, it's a cake reed for the solutions for all your concrete walls.

Driveways, sidewalks, and of course the concrete patios.

We have one of those and we love our patio.

It's in the shade of the house on some of those nice evenings when it isn't so

Unpleasant to be outdoors, Kirk and I will sit out there and play puzzles.

Do our little puzzle books on a little bench outside on the patio.

It's nice to be outdoors as much as possible.

We've got a dandy one coming up here by the Jordan Nairs.

Some of you folks might remember this song.

Michael rode the boat ashore Hallelujah!

Michael rode the boat ashore Hallelujah!

Sister had to train the sails Hallelujah!

Sister had to trim the sails.

Hallelujah!

Michael wrote the boat ashore.

Shills

the body but not the soul

is why.

That's pretty good stuff with the Jordanaires there and they're roaring their boulder shore.

We want to again remind you they got that big Rosendale Lions picnic going on today.

Starts at 10 o'clock.

Bring your lawn chairs to Taylor Park.

The Mel Albright Band will be playing music for the Polka Wurstrup Service and then after that service they'll be playing some more music.

Got a chicken barbecue, burgers, broads and hot dogs and cheese curds and a tractor pull.

at noon but the food starts at 11 o'clock so come on over bring your lawn chairs to Rosendale and help support our many good friends the Rosendale Lions now they got another picnic coming up next week and over in Princeton and nobody can tell you better about that than my friend Big Mikey

this is Big Mike

here to invite everyone to the St.

John's annual Catholic Church picnic.

Third Sunday in August, come and join us, rain or shine, chicken barbecue, polka music.

We got Tony's famous broth stand, music, kids games, raffle, cornhole tournament, tar show, fun for the whole family.

Again, that's the third Sunday in August, St.

John's Catholic Church, West Side of Princeton on Highway 73.

Hope to see you all there.

And don't forget to bring Grandma and Grandpa.

Oh, that is a Danny picnic.

That's next Sunday.

Next Sunday over in prison.

Take a carload.

Now I had some fun and said to Ralphie and his little trio band there playing for the picnic.

Ralph tell them the trio playing music.

I think starting at 11 o'clock.

And you might even see Cork and I over there on that day, too.

You just never know.

We just may take a little drive over and see the friends over in Princeton.

They do a great job.

Then we've got some more music coming up for you right now.

The Griffith family home up in the sky and I guess we all can look forward to that hopefully if we all behave ourselves.

You know the other day I was talking to Karki and we were remembering times when we were first married.

I had our personal checking account so gummed up you know they give you those little tiny teeny weeny spaces to write down the numbers when you write out a check.

And if you don't put the numbers in the right column, you can easily get messed up.

And I did that when we were first married.

And then from then on, I gave Corgi the check.

Boy, guys, just here, honey, you take care of writing out the checks and deducting it, because I know I'm gonna goof it up.

Well, lo and behold, last month, Corgi's just write out a check.

You'll never guess what I did.

I did it again.

I got things all met.

We were only off by $3, but it wasn't.

Crucial or life-threatening.

The good folks at the Huracan Bank here in town would like to be your banking institution.

And if you ever get your checkbook messed up, stop in there and the girls will straighten it out for you.

That's the kind of people they are.

Member FDIC, your equal housing lender, John and Jeff, the entire staff.

Now I gotta tell you, they're going through a little bit of reconstruction.

They're doing some remodeling.

The exterior walls are siding in the front entrance.

It's going to look pretty nice.

But in the meantime, you can still use the drive-thru accessibility or come in from the west side of the same building into the bank lobby.

They're just working on the east side of the building when you come in and also the siding, you know, around the side of the building.

That's at the work-on bank.

Remember FDIC, your Eagle Housing lender, take your money in there, get your checkbooks figured out.

If you've got any questions about borrowing money or starting savings account, 745.

2265 the hurricane bank 745 2265 spell the word bank on your phone after you got the 745.

Member FDIC your equal housing lender.

Hey Miss Patsy Klein is coming up.

Walk,

walk, walk,

walk,

walk, just a closer walk with thee.

I am weak, but thou art strong.

Jesus keep me from all wrong.

Just a closer walk, Just

a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just

a closer

walk, Just a closer walk,

Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, Just a closer walk,

Let it be, dear Lord.

Let it be

when my feeble life is over.

Just a closer walk, just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, just a closer walk, Just a closer walk, just a closer walk,

I guess you could say that's a classic when it comes to country gospel music.

These country western stars would travel throughout the Midwest and, of course, down the east west coast there through the Blue Mountain Range, the Blue Mountains, and people would come and see them.

People that didn't have much money, not much going on in their life.

It was just a matter of time before things would get around.

The Depression hit.

A lot of people couldn't go out and do the things they always wanted to do.

Because there was not enough money for young families.

Yeah, that's true.

Well, we got Randy coming.

Hey, Randy, are you there?

As we keep on the line

a group call three for one perfect praise hey i think we got uh randy coming up

oh polka friends this is randy sabbel from home in chevy buick gmc and 822 west fondle x street in rippin i listen to tuba dan and corky show every free moment right here on your hometown radio station am 1600 and 93.1 fm

you know i don't think randy gets very many opportunities to listen because he's always giving great deals

on Chevrolet Buick and of course the GMC products.

Drove by there the other day on my way to the local Hivey grocery store and there were two gentlemen standing outside talking to different individuals at different cars.

Evidently somebody's looking into some new set of wheels at Homan.

Do you like Chevrolet products?

Have you been a Chevrolet fan for years?

I used to have Chevys when I was on the mail route.

They were always dependable, never let me down.

And the mechanics always did a great job too.

At that time it was Baird Chevrolet and GMC, you know?

But now we've got Holman taking over and they're doing a great job.

Cocked at Chewie, Curtis, and Randy, and Tony at Holman Chevrolet Buick GMC.

748-33770, get your current car tuned up there as well.

Good, good, going.

We've got some more music coming up right now.

I think I got this all queued up right, it's Johnny Cash with the June Carter Cash

family.

Well the morning's

so bright

And the lamb is the light And the night, night is as black As the sea, oh yes

There will be peace in the valley For me some day

There will be peace in the valley

For me, dear Lord

I pray,

there'll be no sadness, no sorrow, no

trouble I see.

There will be peace in the valley for

me.

Well the bear will be gentle And the

wolf will be tame And the lion shall lay down With the lamb, oh yes And the bees from the wild Will be led by a child And I'll be changed, changed from this creature

That I am, oh

Here's another one of those old-time country outlaws Willie Nelson

Nothing says Wisconsin more than cheese and family traditions.

Union Star Dairy has been a staple in the Wisconsin cheese industry for over 100 years.

In fact, since 1911, the Metzeg family has had four generations making delicious and perfecting different, the classics of cheese.

Johnny Metzeg is the guy running the operation.

Did you know they start making cheese?

at four o'clock in the morning, every day, four o'clock, making a variety of cheese prepared in each batch.

That's up in Fremont there, that's where the Union Star Dairy is.

They also have this Willow Creek Cheese Factory.

It's just Northern Berlin on Highway 49 and 21.

When you get to 21 and 49, four-way stop sign, go east on 21 and you're right there.

But did you know that the Willow Creek Creamery opened at door 22 years ago?

I never knew that, 2004, 22 years ago.

And this facility is still able to produce more than just the traditional cheeses, expanded the cheese varieties into the artisan cheese world.

Have you ever had cheese with hickory nut meat in?

Well they make a hickory nut Munster at Willow Creek, you can try that.

They also have a five-year aged cheddar

with a rich sharp flavor without being overly dry.

The taste is worth the wait.

They have many awards.

Come over and see Willow Creek Creamy today.

Actually they're not open today.

Come Monday through Saturday.

Monday through Saturday.

Willow Creek Creamy just north of Berlin.

on 49 to 21 and then go east on Highway 21 and you're there.

Monday through Fridays, 9 to 5 Saturdays, 8 to 5 it's Willow Creek Creamery and get some of that hickory nut trees and also pick up a block of extra sharp cheddar.

Slice some of that up and a little crumble it in between your shredded hash browns in the morning.

Just before you take them out of the pan and melt it, make yourself some cheesy hashbrowns.

And if you don't believe me, ask Bernadette.

She knows.

When troubles come and my heart burdened me And I am still and wait here in the silence Until you come and sit awhile with me

When it's hunger, each restless heart beats so imperfectly.

But when you come and I'm filled with wonder, somehow I think I glimpse eternity.

And I am
