Hip-hip hooray, it’s Herald Day!
It’s been raining lightly, but steadily, since early this morning, and it looks like it’ll stick around through most of Thursday. If the forecast holds, we should clear up just in time for Easter weekend.
Easter’s a good reminder that even when things feel a little gloomy, there’s still plenty to be grateful for. Today, it’s the rain — and all of you. Thanks, as always, for reading, subscribing and supporting us.
It’s election season — whether we like it or not.
Hospital board in May. Sheriff and county commissioner primaries in June. Around here, the primary usually is the election.
So if you’ve got opinions (and we know you do)…
What should we ask the candidates?
We’ll include as many as we can!
