   Be sure to stop in and check out a book, videos, DVD's, use the Internet and browse the many acquisitions in the Museum and find out more history of the Russell are and your relatives.
   Eight elderly citizens of the Russell Development apartments are again enjoying potted tomato plants gifted to them.  You can see them as yoiu drive by the apartment buildings.  The senior residents need only to water, nurture and enjoy the fruits of their labor.  Later this summer they will be enjoying delicious big red tomatoes.
