Aug. 11 was the 80th birthday for
Richard Johnson but he had to patiently
wait 'til Aug. 14 for the birthday celebration
planned by his daughters Martha Johnson
of Auburn, Ala. and Nelda Clay to take
place.
From all accounts, it was well worth the
wait! About 90 relatives and friends from as
far away as California, Arizona, Tennessee,
Florida and Alabama and as nearby as
Perry gathered underneath a striped tent in
the backyard of the Johnson country home
for a barbecue supper. It was topped off
with homemade peach ice cream and birth
day cake.
Richard and Ruth were married 58 years
in April, and Nelda and Martha were
delighted to be able to celebrate this occa
sion with them.

Jeanna Bishop and Lee Smallwood are
being feted by a round of parties prior to
their wedding which is set for Sept. 25 at
Perry United Methodist Church. They were
honored with a casual supper and handy
man shower Aug. 13 at Perry Country Club.
Daisies in a tin pitcher adorned the pic
nic buffet table as did white candles in hur
ricane lamps surrounded by ivy the white
clothed tables for dining. The yellow and
white summertime color scheme was just
the right setting for displaying the gifts for
the handyman and his bride-to-be.
Hosts presenting Jeanna and Lee with a
wheelbarrow were: Jean and Ronny Ben

Harold Clay, Terry and Jackie Cooper,

The officers of the Perry Newcomer's Club
held a "Get Acquainted Tea" Aug. 9 at the
Inverness Drive home of Hollie Adcock.
The ladies sampled different flavored
teas and munched on an assortment of
sweets including a delicious hummingbird
cake baked by incoming President. Nicola
Long.
Most of the guests are new to the Perry
area. It was obvious to all what fun it is to
create new friendships with those who
share the common bond of being “newcom
ers." It helps to have someone to turn to
when getting acclimated to a new town.
Anyone interested in receiving informa
tion about the Perry Newcomer’s Sept. 14
meeting should contact Hollie Adcock at
988-4242 or Nicola Long at 988-4312.
Thanks to Newcomer Joy Simmons for
taking notes and sharing the following
recipe:
Almond-Lemonade Tea
(August 1999 Southern Living)
4 cups brewed tea, chilled
3 cups cold water
1 6 oz. can frozen lemonade concentrate,
thawed
1 /4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon almond extract
Stir together all ingredients in a large
pitcher until sugar dissolves. Serve with
ice. Yield: 2 quarts.
