Out and About 

Local Bobby Ivy was dispatched with the Texas Forest Service with a dozer crew to the panhandle Feb. 27 and was assigned to the Smokehouse Creek Fire, the largest wildfire in Texas history. He and his crew were assigned on the north heel of the fire. They saw huge amounts of burned pastures and Billy and Nancie Blair recently enjoyed a wonderful visit with their greatgrandson Cason Blaha and his dad Tyler. Cason and his dog enjoyed riding his four wheeler; all around the property while Tyler helped with some of the spring clean up around the place. Then they all enjoyed relaxing on the deck before they headed home for Katy.

Reed Rightmer came home for a few days over spring break to visit with his parents, Jennifer and Clay Rightmer. He got to relax and help out around the place before heading back to Houston.
