I’ve noticed I’ve taken a liking to writing my weekly column outside. I’m currently perched on the bench outback from my office enjoying the crisp FALL morning air. I’d better get my outside writing done while I can.

My Two Cents |Changes since Covid

BOMBERS WEEKLY COLUMN

Today I woke up this morning and dressed up for picture day. I disliked what I chose, but I had no other choice or my mom would be disappointed in me. Anyway, I packed my school supplies and got into my car, heading to school.

Letter from the Publisher

If you visited me in the office last week, which several of you did, you noticed a three-pound ball of white fluff that was napping in a laundry basket next to my desk. That’s Hugo. Hugo is our new family puppy! He is a Maltese-Poodle mix, called a Maltipoo, and he is 11 weeks old.
