ANSWER: It sounds like you have everything covered for my favorite holiday! What a fun day this will be. My wish for you is that you have cooperative weather and a big crowd for this special day.

Readers, if you know of other events and activities hosted by churches, schools and nonprofits in Sun Spots Land, let me know as quickly as possible. And tell me how you and your family celebrate the Day of Love. 

Our family’s tradition is to gather for brunch. There are three generations, extended family, tag-along friends, and at least three dogs on the scene. Chaotic? Yes. But we’ve been doing this for decades. The food is fantastic and fun can really break up the winter blues! 

DEAR SUN SPOTS: I have a unique leather tobacco pouch that belonged to my grandfather. I would like to see about getting it repaired and it seems that I remember you have some information on people who specialize in this type of service. Can you please publish that again? — Gene, no town
