Metcalfe Musings
If VmcM JLqm Vcd
Hah! You (and I) just thought my
final column was last week. It turns
out that I get to be published one more
time (which is good, as writing this col-
umn was one of my favorite things to
do at the Metcalfe). It is my pleasure
to introduce Roger and Lloydelle Les-
ter as the new Metcalfe employees.
The Lesters will be taking my
place. Does it feel good to have my pre-
vious workload shared by two people,
rather than one? You bet! With all that
is happening at the Metcalfe, addition-
al helpers are always welcomed.
Roger has been working part time
at the Metcalfe for the past year as the
maintenance man, while Lloydelle was
raised in Roll and has a wonderful under-
standing of the Metcalfe family. Hav ing
four hands on the property will surely be
a blessing for the organization.
In addition to showing the Lesters
around the grounds and giving tours
to visitors from Amarillo and Pampa,
as well as Avard, Oklahoma, I have
been stocking the museum store with
new merchandise. Several new books
are now n stock, including a new re-
cipe book called "Barbeque, Biscuits
and Beans" and a historical novel en-
titled "Mama Grace."
In contrast, there are only three
Frankhoma Centennial Plates left in
the shop. Oklahoma-shaped choco-
late bars from Bedre Chocolate of
Pauls Valley, Oklahoma, are also go-
ng quickly. These solid n Ik chocolate
bars are a treat at only $1 apiece. Sev-
eral stuffed animals are also finger
puppets and start at $4.50. Choose
from a rabbit, rooster, hummingbird,
butterfly and other puppets.
The Break O'Day Farm and Met-
calfe Museum, Inc. is open Tuesday-
Saturday from 10 a.m.-5 p.m., March
1-November 30. Stop by and welcome
the Lesters to the Metcalfe Museum.
Maybe they can show you a thing or
two regarding Augusta and Howard
while you are here!
And, have a Hoppy Easter!
