Dark Mornings Ride Needed ~

Edith Hyatt volunteers Mondays and Thursdays at the Chemainus Thrift Shop and Ron Hyatt normally drives her to the 8:05 ferry so she can be on time for work. With the change in daylight coming, and now that Ron is 94, it is best that he doesn't drive in the dark.  Edith is looking for a ride to the ferry  on Mondays and Thursdays to the dock from her home on Klahowya Road. If you normally travel from that side of the island to the 8:05 ferry on those days Edith would very much appreciate a lift starting in November.  Please call her at 246-3038.
