When it's hot, people are out all over; Donnell's Store does brisk business in ice, soda pop and ice cream despite a sign admonishing "No Checks Accepted Unless You Are 99 With Your Mother 109." Further down, near the river, you may find a tent crusade. All this summer, the Reverend Ezra kept his congregation under the canvas with his message that riches lead to misery.
