Greetings dear readers! Happy Herald Day!
We’re attempting to determine when the 4-way blinking stoplight at 6th and Main (recently removed) was originally installed. No one has been able to pin down a specific year, but we have narrowed it down to the early- to mid-1990s. If you remember, please let us know!
It’s boss’s day, and it’s also former Herald owner Mitch Bettis’s birthday. Happy birthday and Happy Boss’s Day, Mitch! And it’s my parents’ 56th wedding anniversary. They don’t have internet, so they won’t see this, but happy anniversary to my folks anyway!
This week we’re highlighting a new feature: the Out & About Around Town photo page will hopefully become a monthly staple. If you’d like to sponsor a month, or submit photos, get in touch!
And last, if Days Gone By is your favorite (it is mine), I regret to inform you it “fell off the page” this week. We had a glitch in computer/cloud communication. I’m including the link below.
