• Jarmo Tarkki of North Bend called the Valley Record last week to ask about recent small plane activity over Edgewick. One airplane “was going around and around Truck Town for at least an hour.” Small plane activity is on the rise in the Valley. Pilots of small craft do not have to file their flight plans.

• Burglars got away with 100 cartons of cigarettes and grabbed cookies, cheese and miscellaneous groceries Nov. 18 when they broke into Hix’s Market in Duvall. The intruders threw a brick through a glass door. Owner Clifford Hill discovered the theft at 4:30 a.m.

• Danver Smith is the new man in the meat department at Snoqualmie Food Center. He is only 21 and worked as a meat cutter and produce man in Seattle and Yakima before joining Wayne Gaub here. Welcome to the Valley.
