The SCRG Chli Cookoff will be on Oct. 20. I mention that because that is the date Adrian and Cain picked for Van’s 1st birthday party only 8 days before his actual birthday. If I were a betting person, which I’m not, I’d bet that he will be happy to see everyone, sort of like

When I sat down for our chat, my computer balked – wouldn’t type anything. I hollered for Gwen who works a lot in MS Word, but Davis was closer. He tried several of his tricks (the younger generation is tricky) and when nothing else worked, advised me to run permissions. I had forgotten that I

As I was leaving an eating place well after noon Tuesday, I thought I recognized a guy who had just driven up in a pickup and got out. Then I recognized the lady with him for sure – Joan Walker. It was her youngest, Richard, who had been driving her pickup. His sunglasses had partially

At lunch the other day, some of the guys were talking about passport photos the many people may need soon with changes in the ID law. I’ve been doing passport photos for maybe 30 years. Make an appointment with me. $15. Quick turn around. My trip to the goal line a long time before the

Last week, I received some info I thought was so important I called El Dorado Springs Fire Chief Bob Floyd and took him a copy of last week’s paper so he could read the article on Page 11 about the danger of grain bins which killed 26 in 2010. There will be a special display

Kimball’s cell phone has made a complete believer out of me. As I headed to the office last Thursday, there was a Kennon Concrete truck scattered out on the shoulder of Hwy. 82 where it had rolled over while sitting perfectly still according to an eye witness, Steve Woody. The new driver had gotten lost

On her way to the office from somewhere Monday, Kimball encountered major activity at the school construction site. She had her cell phone with her which she purchased specifically to take pictures. I would have felt under gunned with it, but she put it to good use taking photos of the crew installing the huge

It was an unusual Picnic for three big reasons. No. 1 – because Adrian was here with our grandson, Van. At almost nine months, he couldn’t have cared less about the Picnic. He’s just started crawling and pulling up on things (and toppling them if he can) so he requires constant supervision. He’s a happy
