Meeker Locals: March 6, 2008

MEEKER — Ah, “mud season,” that additional season enjoyed — or endured — by Meeker residents, has made its appearance between snowstorms. Judging from the quantity of snow remaining in yards, driveways and certainly at higher elevations, this spring promises to be an especially mucky one. For all you newcomers, there’s a legitimate reason Meekerites consider knee-high rubber boots an acceptable fashion statement.
George Back is celebrating his 55th birthday today. Happy birthday, George! Happy birthday this week to Heather Burke, also on March 6; Rylie Allen and Peggy Lopez, March 7; Denise Brown and Rita Stubert, March 8; Stacey Burke, March 9; Janet Hayes, Ginny Love and Shawn Bolton, March 10; Meredith Deming, Justin Jacob and Helen Stranathan, March 11; Dale Dunbar, Jerrie Calkins and Lisa Darrow, March 12.
Happy belated birthday to Marie Rogers, Feb. 28.
Wishing a happy anniversary March 10 to Matt and Brandy Giao and Harold and Pat Tidwell, March 12.
