Can you believe February is already here? I was going to say I’m ready for spring but I think we have had spring weather all winter. Does that mean we will have winter in the spring? Maybe we will just skip winter this year, but we need some moisture! A wet rainy spring could be nice.

A bit of sad news for the bunny watchers in town. The lone black bunny met his demise last weekend. He turned up at the Smith house for lunch Saturday, and the Smith labs thought he’d be better as a dish than a guest. Whether he froze to death or was scared to it by those big labs, our little black bunny is gone. Maybe this spring we might see a random black bunny in the litters of the others. Some of our streets in town received a facelift, or more like a gravel plant. It is nice to have a b...
I hope everyone enjoyed the terrific warm weather that we had over the past week. Although we have more average temperatures for the last several days, I think it will warm up again somewhat. My yard is full of tumble weeds. I have no use for them and personally think they are a pain.

Last Sunday the Banner County Volunteer Fire men hosted a soup lunch and silent auction for T...

For the special this week at the Hereford Community Church Steve Hauer sang “What Sin?” The sermon title was “Peace and Joy.” There are many scriptures that talk about peace and joy. Jesus is the Lord of peace. When you are in His will and obey His word you can have His personal peace in your life. The joy that comes from knowing Jesus will help you through the hard times. Joy brings happiness, and you can choose to be happy. People can see when you are happy because happiness makes you smile....

I’ve been asked to speak at the No till On the Plains winter conference in Salina, Kan., again this year as well as the High Plains No Till winter conference in Burlington, Colo.

My sister Janet also gave me a memory stick for my computer for Christmas this year. Janet scanned all my parent’s photos and slides over the past 60 years on this memor...
