Low temp tonight, 30 degrees with west wind around 8 mph.  Check the thermostat.  Sixty to seventy years ago, needed lots of dry wood for the heater.

Stock market unpredictable, stability in DC would help.

Remember when the UNC announcing team included Woody Durham and Mick Mixon? The pair came to Bladen County several times, thanks to Lee Hauser, promoting UNC football and basketball broadcast.  A round of golf and an evening meal, a few tall tales with potential sponsors of WGQR.  Durham is now deceased and Mixon is the voice of the Carolina Panthers.  They were a great broadcast team.

Must be high school baseball/softball season….time for boys tennis and girls soccer.  Cold, windy weather. By the time warmer weather arrives, the season is over.  John Clark captures it all on our sports page and Kenneth Armstrong provides the pics.

I recall following a team of a horse and a mule over 60 years ago, pulling a two horse turn plow, breaking ground, preparing for planting season.  Lesson learned????  There is surely a better way to make grocery money than this.

Keep your dreams alive.  Understand to achieve anything requires faith and belief in yourself, vision, hard work, determination, and dedication.  Remember all things are possible for those who believe.  Gail Devers
