Music playing

Hey, how about that the iron range poke of a Sam Pecker on his band from Monroe, Oregon?

Nice job there Sam We played a couple polka fests with Sam over in Arizona We'll also bounce into him when we played for a polka fest in Las Vegas, Nevada That was an event adventure in and of itself.

Let me tell you I should write a book about some of these adventures I've had on the road I think some new people might find it kind of interesting

Well, John and Danny Heatley are here to make sure your electricity stays on.

When you have a power failure because a tree limb or something falls and takes a line out, we'll call Heatley Electric.

If your light starts flooding in the house, it could be something due to a short wire and we don't want your house burning down.

Give Heatley Electric a call right here in Ripon.

Let John and Danny make sure the power never fails on you.

Several years ago I had them rewire my house so that I could have my water pump and my heating and air conditioning system hooked up in case of an emergency.

They are fantastic.

That way if power ever goes out for an extended period of time, I just plug in my gas portable generator and I'm never without power.

So corkies popsicles never thaw out in the freezer.

and my beer never gets warmed.

My root beer that is.

John and Danny Healey for all your electrical problems.

They can solve them for you.

Healey Electric right here in town.

748-7786.

I really appreciate their friendship.

Great guys.

And I'll tell you one thing else.

They are wonderful electricians too.

748-7786.

Our local Hy-Vee grocery store with us too.

And Sarmine is the new manager there.

And I just got to let you know that

They're open from six to ten seven days a week, but you guys know that already

And then you know all about the different things that you can get in the bakery in the deli, all the produce, et cetera, the in-store smokehouse, the dairy.

But did you know they have a floral department too?

So if you need to buy flowers for no matter what occasion it is, if somebody's under the weather, you want to get some flowers to make them feel better, well, the floral department can help you.

Live plants are beautiful bouquets.

Snap and see our local heavy grocery store seven days a week and get your floral arrangements.

and even have gift certificates too if you'd like to give somebody a little card with a little money in.

Talking about the floral department, a young gentleman here in town in this lovely bride for years, ever since Corky got sick, have been remembering Corky with some flowers ever so often.

Jack and Nancy Carlson, their wedding anniversary, 59 years last Thursday.

So we like to dedicate the show's

tonight to Jack and Nancy for their love that they've given Corky and I both.

Their anniversary last year was last week.

Last week, Thursday on the 13th was 59 years.

So Jack, Nancy, this next song is for you.

It's done by the sons of the pioneers.

Going to slow it down.

You guys can dance in the kitchen.

It's entitled Room Full of Roses.

Jack, this is for you and Nancy.

If I sent a rose to you For every time you made me blue You'd have a room full of roses

If I sent a rose of white For every time I've cried all night You'd have a

room full of roses

And if you took the petals

And you tore them all apart You'd be tearing at the roses The way you tore my heart If someday you're feeling blue

And you could send some roses too.

Well, I don't want a room full of roses.

I just want my arms full of you.

You took the petals And you tore them all apart You'd be tearing at the roses The way you tore my heart

If someday you're feeling blue

And you could send some roses too

I don't want a

room full of roses I just want my arms

Happy anniversary Jack and Nancy, you guys are terrific.

We got one by Don Peachy from Out of the Past.

It's the Bright and Groomed Polka.

A focus for the bright and true Everybody up and dance A focus for the bright and true It's the music of

As they whirl around the room It's anniversary May there always be a poker for the bride and groom Their mamas and poppies are crying Happy on this wedding day The honeymoon couple is signed

For the chance when they can get away Up on a bench there's a peril And when the polka is through Drink to the boy and girl May their sweetheart dreams come true

All the way from Burnett, Wisconsin, Don Picci in the band, doing a really nice job.

That's an old recording by Donnie and the group.

Watered overhead door, 41 years in service, serving our surrounding communities and ripping folks with wonderful overhead garage doors.

Most individuals have a garage, either attached or unattached machine shed or something where they store things.

Do you have a garage?

I can remember back when we were first married back in 1971,

We had a garage that we had to share with other individuals in an apartment in Swamako where I was teaching school.

The garage did not have a door.

So when the wind blew, I literally would have to shovel a little snow bank away to get my car out to go to school in the morning.

And I thought it was okay.

When we did get snow during the day,

Korky would shovel out a little path so I could get in the door.

I wouldn't have to get you know get out of the car with my good school teaching clothes and have to get all redone in the snowbank.

But anyway modern overhead door they do have doors to keep your inside nice and clean not only that but keep critters out and other individuals that you don't want in there.

Located at 1112 North Douglas Street it's Rippon's location for modern overhead door.

Beck's Meat Market are with us this evening too, and I know how important it is for folks.

When you make a meal, you always want to serve the best of ingredients, either your vegetables, your beverage, whatever you're making for dessert, but the main entree is usually meat.

sometimes fish, but meat for most of us hard-working people.

When you want a steak, turn the backs.

You want a roast, turn the backs.

I know the ovens will be really gearing up this fall to warm up the kitchen and the house.

What the smells permeating the whole building, delicious things you are making in your oven.

I don't know how many people make meatloaf on a hot summer day because that warmth from the oven or really warm up your house is warm enough as it is unless you have a really good air and central air conditioner.

Becks meat market for hamburger patties, broad patties, becks homemade brats, natural casing wieners, summer sausages, ring baloney,

Oh my goodness, they got ground chuck, beef jerky, so many wonderful things at Beck's.

We want to talk a little bit about the good folks here in town.

I got this all written down here Where was I going here?

Oh my goodness here.

Oh, yes Bandy Brinks Produce stand on Ripman's West Side

Right at the city limits, invite you in every day of the week.

They open at 10 o'clock.

The only difference in their hours is that on Monday through Saturday, they're open to 5.30, 10 to 5.30 on Sundays from 10 to 5.

Delicious fried pies.

They have all kinds of fruit, including peppers, potatoes, beans.

Oh my goodness, they got beans there.

And they got corn, sweet corn.

We just had some the other day.

And when I cook the sweet corn, you know I'll boil it and then I'll cut the corn off the cob, being very careful not to lose a finger.

And my neighbor Debbie stopped and I said, Debbie would you like some fresh sweet corn cut off the, oh boy.

And so I gave her a nice sized container of that.

The corn is always good when it's in season.

Frozen corn is okay, canned corn, et cetera, but when you get fresh vegetables, there is nothing to compare with that.

So get over to Vandenbergs, pick up all your fresh vegetables for the season.

I think they got a couple cherries and peaches left too.

Stop and see what they have available for you.

But remember, they are open 10 to 5.30, Monday through Saturday, 10 to 5 on Sundays.

Vandenbergs on Ripman's website.

Check out all the delicious fried pies.

and good things for you to enjoy there at Vanderbrink's.

Just a little bit east coming at the town from Vanderbrink's is Mr. and Mrs. Pease Eadry.

The other day I received a call last Saturday morning after the show.

My brother, Paul, he called me from Kiwan.

He says, Dan, he says, I want to come down and take you out to eat.

I said, where do you want to go?

He says, let's go to peace.

Really?

He says, we'll go next Tuesday.

He says, nope.

I said, they're not open on Mondays or Tuesdays.

He says, well, how about Wednesday?

I said, okay, I'll flip you for it.

He says, well, I'm pretty heavy.

You might hurt your back.

So don't touch me.

Don't pick me up and throw

me on

the ground.

I said, I didn't mean that.

I'll flip a coin to see who buys breakfast.

He says, what's your favorite breakfast?

item.

I saw there's so many things from the Polish skillet, the Greek omelette.

They have all kinds of delicious omelettes you can get all day long off the menu and of course they have the Greek omelette, Polish skillet and quiche.

There you go.

Everything is so corky, loves their quiche.

I do too.

My favorites are the Polish skillet or the Greek omelette.

Now the Greek omelette you can get with a side order of Polish sausage,

to make an international menu with a Greek and a Polish together, or you can have little porky links or sausage patties or bacon with your menus.

It is so good and he's generous with the portions too.

That's why so many people are parking in a parking lot on the side street to get inside.

It's never a long wait either.

Famous quote from Mr. and Mrs. Peace for today is, one of the wonderful things about being a senior citizen

is there's no more pregnancy scares.

No more pregnancy scares when you're a senior citizen.

There you go.

You know, and if you're standing in the shallow end of a swimming pool, it does count as swimming.

Okay, Joe, I'll buy that.

Good idea.

Joe P, the phone number, 920-896-0696 for delicious catering, dining in,

You want a big order?

Eight people coming to our mark.

They'll set up a table or drive through pickup.

Mr. and Mrs. Peace.

We got a song here by grandpa Don Hale's dad's band.

He played with the push and pull, Vern Miller.

Talked to Don last Wednesday for almost a half an hour.

We had a lot of business to finish.

A lot of monkey business, really.

For Don and Chris and his lovely ride down there in Watertown, he is still looking for somebody to come and cut his lawn for him.

Randy

Dorscher and of course Jimmy his brother on the tuba doing a nice job really letting her snap there don't you agree well American family insurance are with us and the other day I was watching

one of the major news networks and they were talking about how so many young people today do not have car insurance and yet they're out there driving around when you bump into somebody if they're not very attentive you know like texting or talking on their phone or not really knowing where they are half the time these younger people the most insured people on the road are senior citizens

Are you one of those people?

Corky and I would not conceive going out of our driveway without having adequate insurance on our car.

Our cars, we have two different vehicles that we trade off, but the thing is we have everything bundled into our car and home insurance with American family.

And Brad and his staff, Brad Tagliapietra at 120 Watts and Street Downtown Ribbon, take excellent care of us.

We know that there's a sudden storm and we would have damage to our buildings or something should happen to us while we're on the road.

That American family will stand behind us and they've never increased our insurance rates, you know, just because we have a little fender bender.

Not that I've ever caused one.

I hope I never do, but should you bounce into me?

I know I will be covered not that I want you aiming for me on the road American family insurance get your cars insured with Brad and the girls and downtown ribbon give them a call tomorrow and see what they can do to decrease your current insurance rate American family 7485031 American family insurance and they don't pay me extra to sing the song for you

bounce into my neighbor Dylan from Cacrete the other day it was a rainy day and I see Dylan standing in his shed there looking all around at projects I know he's planning to do so I pulled in quick to see how he's doing I said Dylan have you gotten any response from our polka show ads he says oh yeah he said I got a big one up in Watoma going on I said no kid he says I love those polka people really he says yep

They're very sincere and they are easy to work with and I always try to cut them a good deal.

I said how big of a crew do you usually run?

He said a real big project.

We run six employees counting himself.

Then I asked do you do barn lots?

You know if somebody puts up a new shed and they want to have a little concrete pad out there for the livestock to stand on so that

The cattle are not standing knee deep and mud on rainy or snowy spring days.

He says, yeah, we do all kinds of large concrete flatwork.

So yeah, we do barn lots and we do driveways.

I said, I know you do the sidewalks and patios because that's what I have.

Dylan, you're great.

He said, no, he says those polka people are great.

Give Dylan a call and see what he can do to, you know, give you a nice slab of concrete wherever you need it.

920.

279-8854.

And he expressly wanted me to thank you folks for calling him for free quotes.

He doesn't mind that.

Call him 920-279-8854.

It's concrete for all your concrete flatwork.

You know, driveways, sidewalks, and patios, and bar lots.

Anywhere you need concrete.

Eddie B's coming up with a dandy one here, and this is for all you folks in love.

It's one of the title, I Will Love You Forever.

Of spring,

a warm

April shower The warmth of the sunshine giving you May flower These are the things that remind me of you I will love you forever Promise me that you'll always be true I will love you forever

they know that they always say well this will be the last vehicle I will ever purchase and hopefully we can keep it running so if your car needs a little maintenance work give them a call and have the mechanics tune it up Monday through Fridays before you hit the road it's always a good idea to trek with Holman Ford and Holman Auto Group the sales department works on Monday through Fridays I believe from like 8 30 to 5 in the afternoon and then on Saturdays from 9 to 1

Did you realize that in the 33 seasons on the TV set, Mr. Rogers

his little trolley car that ran at the beginning of the show.

That little trolley car travels more than 100 miles on its little track.

I know it went quite a ways, but it would have figured 100 miles.

Of course, 33 years is a long time.

Did you ever watch the Mr. Roger show or your grandkids?

Did you know that the traditional gift

to give somebody for their 44th wedding anniversary is groceries.

Yep, so if somebody has a 44th, give them a gift card for groceries.

Anyway, a little bit of Jimmy Hart Week in the band from out of the past.

Well, I did enjoy it for whatever we did get out of it.

It was pretty decent.

Romy Goss is coming up from 1949, I guess.

Music playing

you

Roman Gods and the Boys of Manitowoc, Wisconsin, and the old-timers Landler.

Does polka music affect you just a little bit?

I can have a really strenuous, really troubling day.

You know, a lot of work, a lot of things that got done, maybe things didn't go exactly right, but when I listen to polka music, it kind of takes all those blues away, and I kind of have a

Little bit better evening that way.

I hope this Wednesday night polka party does the same thing for you.

If you're working on the farm, maybe finishing up some chores or working in the shop or cleaning the house.

I hope the old-time music kind of makes that chore just a little easier for you.

Normie Dembrowski and his happy notes from Stephen's point are coming up with one entitled The Happy Fellow.

A

little bit of music there by Elmer Scheider, the band from Mankato, Miss Soda.

You know songs come and go.

Some people might have a favorite tune and you'll hear it all the time and then it's gone.

Do you remember this one?

a lot of great bands from Nebraska.

Teddy Gee, well that was his orchestra with Teddy's daughter, Karen Olichusky, Olichusky on the Vogel.

Don Peachy recorded that song and that song got a lot of airplay when it first hit.

But you don't hear that song too much anymore.

A lot of great hits from out of the past.

Brewer Heating and Cooling are with us.

And maybe you've not had the opportunity to call them because you haven't had any problems.

with your current air conditioning system.

Central air, well I'll tell you what, pretty soon it'll come another month and a half, two months.

Our furnaces might be called into service.

And if that's your case, I would suggest getting a hold of brewery heating and cooling and have the technicians come out and check over your heating system long before you need it to go into service.

Brewer heating and air conditioning been here for a long long time In fact, I knew Doug and sadly before they got married and started his business I tell you what good people there the brewers and of course Johnny and Abby their kids and of course big Mikey over there in Princeton Mike wanted me to thank all the folks that came up for the reason picnic on the 16th over in Princeton had a huge crowd

Good people, and as I say, when you turn to good folks, you never forget them, they never let you down.

Brewer, Heating and Cooling, 748-6494.

You're on North Douglas Street here.

Give them a call, and they'll have a technician come out and help you.

Another good friend of mine is Chris, Rolanda, and Marissa at Budsene March and Funeral

Home.

General arrangements used to be nearly the same for every person in a family or community.

For better or worse, things are a lot more complicated today.

There are many choices, costs, and personal expressions to choose from.

Pre-planning a funeral has become more important than ever.

Buttsene Margin Funeral Home in Ripon has been here for you since 1896, and we continue to be here for you.

Call anytime at 748-2623 to schedule an appointment, and thank you for your trust in us.

And they are definitely good people.

Why don't you give them a call, set up a time, and plan your own pre-funal arrangements.

So that way, your loved ones are not faced with trying to figure out what mom or dad or what, you know, grandpa and grandma would have wanted done.

Let you take care of it yourself.

And they are very easy to talk to and make plans.

We got Stevie Meissner coming up.
