Some families have turned discarded river boats into living quarters, while others have taken out five-acre homesites and are building log cabins. Haskell will leave for the south on the Princess Louise on Tuesday PENNY HONESTY WORLAND, Wsu. — An honest tourist, finding o parking meter cut of order when he parked his car, left two pennies on top of e machine.
