We'll have a special Betty MacDonald fan club surprise on Saturday for you.
Don't miss it, please.
Anita, I'm one of your many fans. 
Many greetings to Eartha Kitt II. 
You are a dream team. Thank you so much for sharing the photo of you and
 Eartha in your living-room. It's so cute. 
I admire your Betty 
MacDonald Fan Club story about Betty MacDonald, Robert Heskett,  Donald 
MacDonald, Darsie Bard, Sydney Bard, Gammy,  Mary Bard Jensen,  Clyde R.
 Jensen, Sydney Cleveland Bard, Mary Alice Bard,  Dorothea Darsie Bard 
Goldsmith, Alison Bard Burnett,  Jerry Keil, Joan MacDonald Keil, Madge 
Baldwin, Don Woodfin, Perry Woodfin,  Mike Gordon, Ma and Pa Kettle, 
Nancy and Plum, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle and many others. 
It's the best 
Betty MacDonald fan club story ever beside Wolfgang Hampel's Betty 
MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography and his magical Betty MacDonald
 Interviews.   
Björn: I have a surprise. My parents visited the 
Northwest in the sixties. Both are huge Betty MacDonald Fans and  they 
went to Vashon of course and they met  ........
Mary Bard Jensen, 
Clyde Reynolds Jensen, Cleve Bard and Mary Alice Bard. We have many 
photos of the family and my father filmed them with his camera. So you 
can see and hear the Bard family. I'm going to present this at the next 
Betty MacDonald Fan Club Meeting. 
Mary Bard Jensen is very funny, indeed  but you'll enjoy Clyde Jensen, Cleve and Mary Alice Bard as well. A wonderful family! 
Björn,
 we can't wait to see the Mary Bard Jensen, Clyde R. Jensen, Cleve Bard 
and Mary Alice Bard interviews filmed by your father. Did Mary Bard 
Jensen share any info about the story of Sandra, which Betty MacDonald 
mentioned in her book Anybody can do anything?
We would like to learn
 more about Mary Bard's book published in the thirties. We know so much 
more about it after reading Anita's Top Betty MacDonald Fan Club story. 
Anita also tells the exciting story of Dorita Hess. Betty MacDonald 
describes this rather strange lady in Anybody can do anything. Did Mary 
Bard Jensen, Clyde R. Jensen, Cleve Bard and Mary Alice Bard mention her
 in the interviews?
Björn, excuse my many questions, please but 
it's so great to have the opportunity to see all the members of the Bard
 family. I'm overwhelmed. It's such a great feeling. 
I hope we'll be
 able to see these interviews and the filmed Betty MacDonald interview 
at the next Betty MacDonald Fan Club meeting. 
Jens: Wolfgang 
Hampel's Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography and Betty 
MacDonald interviews have fans in 40 countries. I bet there will be many
 more fans in the future. 
Isn' t this amazing? Wolfgang Hampel and 
Alison Bard Burnett are born humorists. Both delight their fans from all
 over the world. I'd love to have a Wolfgang Hampel CD and DVD  with his
 very funny poems and stories. What about a book? We adore Wolfgang 
Hampel's high humor and wit in Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle 
biography and his wonderful Betty MacDonald interviews.
Jens, it doesn't amaze me at all. 
As you wrote Alison Bard Burnett and Wolfgang Hampel are born humorists. I heard many more Alison Bard Burnett interviews by Wolfgang Hampel will be published in the future. Come on, please. Do it! This couple is so funny. I can listen to them a million times without getting tired. Pure Bard and Hampel magic.
Wonderful story 
tellers, world painters, great entertainers. Alison Bard Burnett and 
Wolfgang Hampel share it with Betty MacDonald Fans from all over the 
world. 
By the way I don't like poems so much but Wolfgang Hampel's 
satirical poems are as witty and charming as his Betty MacDonald and Ma 
and Pa Kettle biography and Betty MacDonald Interviews. Wolfgang 
Hampel's very funny stories about everyday life make us laugh aloud. 
I
 heard one of the next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter stories are 
about our beloved Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honor members.
My family and I are crazy about Mr. Tigerli - our unique trouble shooter!
When will it be published? In October?
I hope so very much because I believe that our unique Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honor members are outstanding artists and writers.
It's my favourite season now.
I wish you a magical and golden October.
Yours, 
Ari
