I had a new experience last night at the JV football game against Ash Grove. I wasn’t crowding the three-foot mark on the sideline when a play kept coming toward me. I appreciated the closer look and kept my eye glued to the viewfinder and finger pressing the trigger button. Too late I realized the

I had fun at the Cedar Bowl mostly by hasseling Chad Boyle who was filming for Stockton. I told him that since he is the county assessor he should pull equally for both teams. – Do you remember that Davis gave Kimball some dwarf hampsters and the first two were mean? He switched those for

Sunday while we ate dinner on the grounds at  the Concord Homecoming, Steven Barger told me his aunt, Sharon, had called to ask him to have us stop by for a photo of their brutalized mailbox which we did on our way home after church. Then when we got close to home we saw Rod

The only really close Cedar County election I remember was when Don Berry and Fidel Bridges tied in the Republican primary for Cedar County Clerk.

Davis is into dwarf hamsters. He thought his mom just had to have a couple, so he deposited a cage on her desk complete with exercise wheel, watering bottle and feed dish a few weeks ago. There’s not room for anything else on her desk, so the cage was soon on the John S. Smith

Davis attempted to go froggin’ at the new spot he discovered. Score: Davis – 0 although he claims he and his girlfriend each caught one and decided to let them go. That’s the beauty of hand grabbing. Mud – 1, it caught Davis and his girlfriend pulled him out. Frogs – clean sweep, grand slam.

You goin’ froggin’? Season opens at sunset Thursday, June 30. As far back as I can remember Dad took us kids froggin’ as soon as season opened. There are lots of legal ways to take bullfrogs, but we only did it one way – by hand with a gas lantern. That way, you can cull
