Out our way, things go pretty smooth most of the time up on the Tiger Ridge. After all, the pastures are fenced, there is good water, and usually good grazing. Even so, Charlie and I would regularly go check the herd, for things were not always easy and fine.

Sometimes, as I have written about before, a...

The earthly reality of something doesn't...

Gramps knows she's there, but waits until she pats his arm, turns, smiles and picks her up. She hugs him just as little sister hugs Daddy; she puts her head on his shoulder and shuts her eyes. So cute. Dads and fathers, may you pay...

At a monthly meeting of Hill County Officials Wednesday, Hill County Public Health Director and Health Officer Kim Berg said about 50 percent of the county’s eligible population has received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine. Berg said this is well below their goal of 70 percent, which is the lowest estimate for the point at which a community can achieve herd immunity for COVID-19.
