Crevice gardens are a relatively new concept brought to us by the avid rock gardeners from the Czech Republic. The Czechs have been acclaimed as some of the most passionate and enthusiastic rock gardeners in the world. They've taken an age-old garden concept and literally turned it up on edge. The old tried and true concept of rock-gardening uses flat stones (such as flagstone) and "stair-steps" them up a hillside or slope to create planting areas that pretty much look like stairs with plants....

The only score that matters in a basketball competition are the numbers on the board at the end of the game. If the Pine Bluffs Hornets didn't know that already, they certainly learned it Saturday afternoon. In a nail-biter of a matchup between Glenrock and Pine Bluffs, the Hornets needed every minute of play to secure a win at home. And they did just that. The Hornets spent much of the game trailing Glenrock with their deficit growing to 10 points with 40 seconds left in the second half at 29-1...
If Kammie Ragsdale set out to sing a swan song in her final basketball campaign as a Lady Hornet, she's doing a fine job of it. The senior, who earlier in the week signed to play for Casper College, put up 20 points in the Lady Hornets' win over Glenrock. To be fair, Saturday's contest could be better described as as a blowout as the Lady Hornets defeated the Herders 53-6.
