<br />, ' <br /> <br />oak creek <br /> <br />Thelma M. Clark ' ~- hearing , about · Oak Creek.' <br />,He1lcoptersfrom the T.V. statlo~have <br />The overriding news ' really been busy around here and one of <br />In Oak Creek thIa week ' them has been taking Inspectors to see <br />has been the loss of the ' ,If our main water supply, SherIH'. <br />city water because of' Reservolr In the Flattops, Is goJng to <br />the mudsllde which took bold. Let's all pray that it does; that's <br />, out the mallis, and the ,such a lot of nice clean water. Wish we <br />flood taking out the city reservolr. Last - bad a big conduit all the way down from . <br />'week we thought the hard work of ' It. <br />, . sandbagging, the bridges going out, and I - - - - <br />the muddy water we would bave to use . <br />for a while was the worst of it, but then <br />,we gOt the one-two punch. ~o water <br />except enough for two flusheS a day. <br />But we've bad, clean water' from <br />Phlppsburg In the tank truck, and then <br />Coors sent us, a lot of cases of Rocky <br />I Mountain spring water' put up In their <br />big beer bottles. When people went by <br />and saw It being unloaded at the city I <br />hall, they wondered about the city <br />fathers! . <br />People who aren't too spolled are' <br />, gettlng along pretty weD. There Is still a <br />lot of good water In a ditch which runs ' <br />out of the SweeUands' property, and Is <br />I close to me. So several of us are <br />carrying water from It for watering <br />plants and flushing. And I'm sure thIa '. <br />pioneer spirit Is motivating a lot of <br />ingenuity all over town., " <br />The town crew, the mayor and the' , <br />city "dads" really deserve accolades <br />for the hours of dedicated hard work <br />they put In to keep danger away and , <br />. make us all as happy 88 possible. We <br />have a temporary bridge which we can' <br />drive over, the flIter beds have been <br />washed clean with Yampa water, there <br />18 a temporary set'llp to get water from <br />an irrigation ditch for the system, and ' <br />we've managed so far to keep all the, ' <br />aclventuroqs little kids ,from being <br />dro~. ' , <br />. And ,think how famous we are I <br />Friends and relatives caIJ from all over' <br /> <br />, - -...I <br /> <br /> <br />",l.< :~~ <br />'t~,'~.I' <br />E, <br />. ~ "- , <br />" \ <br />
