Ocean Point Column Feb.19

The weather continues to be the major news item here in the Northeast. However, despite the snow and cold of the region I have managed to gather some news from fellow Ocean Pointers to share.

Record breaking snow and frigid temperatures has not deterred several Ocean Pointers from their travel plans. Gail Ross recently escaped the snow and cold of Michigan for a visit with her brother Chris and sister in law Marilyn in Las Vegas and then on to Phoenix.
Jean and Jon Webster also travelled; John enjoyed skiing in Colorado with long time friends while Jean flew to St Louis to be with her daughter Kim, son in law Michael and her granddaughters Grace and Ave. While there Jean enjoyed a night at the St. Louis Symphony.
Marilyn and Jack Heise planned to be at Ocean Point this past snowy weekend with Carol and Dick Palmer to check on the status of their house construction and to hopefully attend the Camden Conference with other East Bootbay residents.

There is more exciting news from the Marden family. Brad Marden and his wife Katie Moorlein are happy to announce the birth of their son Renn on February 4th. Brad is the son of Bob Marden Jr. and his wife Lydia and grandson of Bob and Scoop Marden, Congratulations to all.

I would like to extend our deepest sympathy to Jean Vose and her family on the death of her husband Dick. Dick’s parents Dick and Eunice Vose along with Dick’s sister Jean summered at Ocean Point for many years in what is now the Briggs-May cottage.  He and Jean moved to Nobelboro from Massachusetts in 1998 and continued to visit friends in the area and enjoy the beauty of Ocean Point.

Have a great week!
