Expecting the Unexpected
Dear ##firstname[Friend]##,
##\keycode.DonorContentHTML##
Photographer Alan St. John has a knack for the unexpected. This self-proclaimed Oregon desert rat wrote about and photographed the state's arid wonders for "God's Country" in the Aug/Sept issue. We didn't even know Oregon had a desert. Well, we asked him to tell us about his favorite photo, and once again he came up with the unexpected. Read all about Alan's favorite photo.

For a laugh...
My daughter loves getting magazines with perfume samples in them. One day, she got a full-page sample and rubbed it all over herself. When we ran into a friend, she commented, "What a lovely fragrance. What’s it called?" "Page 32," my daughter replied.

Country Shortcut
When you make hamburger patties, poke a hole in the center with your finger. The patties cook faster and more evenly this way, and the hole disappears as the meat cooks. —William Jones, Poland, Indiana
