I don't know where the time went last week. When I get to writing about something that truly interests me, I lose track of the words.

The best thing about growing your own vegetables, beside the sheer enjoyment, is knowing what...

It wasn't the home opener the Lady Hornets wanted Friday night here in Pine as they dropped three matches to the Yuma (Colo.) Indians. Pine Bluffs lost 22-25, 9-25 and 16-25 in three sets during their match Friday night. "Yuma is a great team and we gave them a game for the first one then played scared for the next two. We have to learn to compete. If you give 100 percent and lose, so be it. But when you play not to lose it doesnt work. It is a great lesson for us this early in the season,"...
