Van had his second birthday on Monday, Oct. 28. He was too busy watching his baby brother to talk to Popee. Van can’t understand why Snider, a nearly two month old, won’t give him a high five. -Davis videoed Senior Night and posted it that night on Spring City TV.  Go to our web page,

I left out one coach that Kimball interviews every Wednesday, Ashley Rogers, the VolleyDog coach. Kimball has Davis put the interviews on Spring City TV Thursday morning. Her goal is to have them posted by 10 a.m. If they aren’t on time, please keep checking. I decided not to make the drive to Skyline. I

Kimball came back from the Prairie Day all enthused. She took our nearly 11-year-old grandson, Ben, and it sounds like they had a blast. First up was throwing the atlatl. I’ve never even seen one but what she told me, you mount a spear in a wooden base then use it to launch the spear.

I was talking to Granddaughter Reese Monday morning as her momma was trying to get her to eat lunch and tried to figure out her age. I couldn’t see the calendar and got it wrong. When I got back to my office, I discovered she was seven months young on Sunday. It’s hard to detect

What’s the big news this week?  Lotsa little things. Reese was as happy as a clam Monday, not that I’ve ever met one. But she smiled a lot when I went up front and talked to her as her momma held her. Snider turned a week old Monday. He was making contented noises as I

In a little over a year, Kimball and I went from no grandchildren to four. At straight up 12 noon Monday, Sept. 9, grandbaby No. 4 made such a quick appearance that his daddy, Cain Gilfoil, who was eating lunch, almost missed it. Snider Cain’s due date was supposed to be Sept. 8, his daddy’s

I was ready to moan about holidays, particularly Monday holidays, which give us fits at the newspaper. It’s even worse now that we’ve gone to a Monday deadline. Then I got in touch with the Bulldog Athletic Director Jeremy Barger and he had the new head football coach, Kelley Beckner, call me. When Coach Beckner

I spent a couple of days by myself and didn’t get in much trouble. Davis accompanied Kimball to Shreveport to attend her brother’s funeral. Davis got a hero’s welcome home Saturday evening from his daughter, Reese, who adores her daddy. OK, he got a big welcome home, too, from Erica, but she can put it
