The Richland Springs Report

Submitted by Edgar on Wed, 06/17/2015 - 10:06am
Hello everyone, we are back safe and tired. Our kids were the best of the best. We walked 34 miles in 3 days. We were nonstop busy, but I didn’t hear any complaining. We were disappointed that the hotel didn’t have its new pool up and running, but we used their exercise room before we went to bed

Notes from the Spring Creek Arts Guild

Have you ever had something plant itself in your brain, in your consciousness, and stay there for years and years? Cropping up now and again just to remind you that it is still there? That is what happened to me with a tiny rock island just off the coast of northern France—le Mont Saint-Michel.

Bison are dangerous creatures. The reason I know bison are dangerous is because I’m not stupid. Plus there are signs here and there all over Yellowstone National Park that say stuff like, “The bison here are dangerous, wild animals. Stay away from them, dummy.”

Where Have You Been All My Life?

Submitted by Edgar on Wed, 05/20/2015 - 10:30am
Can it be real? If I were not witnessing it myself, I would not believe it exists. As I write this, I am sitting at a marbletopped table on a mountainside near Volterra, Italy. The wind is blowing through the cherry trees and olive trees that line the edge of the yard. In the valley below, there is an agricultural festival in full swing and I can hear children’s voices, dog barks, and horse whinnies.

Highlights of Harkeyville

Submitted by Edgar on Wed, 05/13/2015 - 11:34am
You might sometimes ponder the reason we seem to begin the "Column" with a run-down of the past week's occurrences of local and/or weather events. Everyone I visit with has aninterest and/or concerns about weather activities. Listening to weather reports on the radio, it seems that a good deal of our neighbors around the state might have been receiving a bit more than their fair share of down-right foul and catastrophic storms.
