Good Sunday morning. The weather is supposed to be lovely the next couple of days.
I must start todays news with a Happy Birthday to Pu Hendrix. Sorry I missed wishing him a great birthday last week.
Hello again. I hope you are all enjoying this beautiful weather we are having here in January. It is pretty chilly at night and cool in the daytime but is a lot better than some Januarys we’ve seen. Jason had his 97th birthday Friday, so the kids, Nancy, Ronnie and Thereisa, Randall and Ann and I all took him to the Red River Café at Leslie for lunch. He seemed to enjoy it and ate real good. The food was wonderful. After leaving there some of us went on to Clinton to get groceries, so by the time we got home he was getting tired, so his recliner felt real good to him and he was asleep in five minutes.
Hello from Zack. I hope your all keeping warm. I think it was Friday we heard geese, looked up and sure enough there they were going over. Poor things there just as confused about the weather as the rest of us.
The weather has gone from spring-like to definitely winter. The wind has been blowing gusts of about 30 miles an hour.

Dr Kenneth Barnes, history professor at UCA, will give the program at the January Searcy County Historical Society meeting on Friday, January 27 at Marshall’s First Christian Church. His topic will be about Searcy County’s involvement on both sides of the 1922-1923 M & N A Railroad strike. Dr. Barnes has also authored a book about the Ku Klux Klan in Arkansas that was active at the same time as the strike. There was interaction between the two and Searcy County was involved.
Just like last year, time is moving along here in January, we’re already halfway through! I saw on Facebook where the Snowball Civic Club will be having a workday on January 21st starting at 9 AM. They will be working to remove rotten floor and joists.
