It has been another eventful week, with lots of school stuff and my normal running around to keep things going. more

That old wind just keeps on blowing and moving things around. When I look out and things look strange, it is because that was either in the backyard or maybe out in the field the day before. more
One week of April is behind us, and we had every kind of weather this past week. I feel for all the folks whose life had been destroyed by floods, tornadoes, fires, or just plain old heavy winds. The water went across my pasture in three small streams. It didn't take the fences out like it had in the past. more
We finally got a couple of showers Saturday night and Sunday afternoon. As I look out my window, I can now see lots of green grass. It isn't very high yet, but it looks promising. more

What a beautiful weekend! There was just not enough time to be outside. Of course, when one is out on a farm, you can count on work to be done. I don't know how one can think of so many things to done all at one time. It is a good plan, but the energy wears down too quickly. That does leave a plan for the next pretty day. I was looking forward to the rain the weatherman said we might get. None here. more
On Tuesday, April 8, Christian County residents will go to the polls to cast their votes in a series of elections to determine who will hold office in local bodies of government, such as their Board of Aldermen or Board of Education. As a service to the voters, the Christian County Headliner sent inquiries out to candidates in the contested races to create profiles of those who are running for office. Those who replied appear here. more
There has been a super amount of excitement in and around our community for a few weeks. Our two basketball teams qualified to play in the State playoffs in Columbia over the weekend. The last game the girls played they beat by just one point (one couldn't get closer than that). The last game the boys played, they beat 52 to 73. The kids and their many fans are going to have great memories for many years. Congratulations to everyone. Now is the time to celebrate! Lots of parties in the near future. I was really glad that folks who were at games kept putting what was happening on Facebook. I, for one, enjoyed every game I went to. more
It is going to take some time to get adjusted to the hour change. Could we just leave it one way or the other, so we don't have to deal with it twice each year? more
Hello to all my friends out there and enjoy these nice days. more
The snow and cold days are behind us (for a while). There have been reports of frozen pipes and other farm problems with folks needing to check cows often since it is calving season. That part of winter is always a dread. more
On Monday, Feb. 10, Gretchen House, a senior at Chadwick High School, was informed that she was a finalist in the National Merit program. This was a highly impressive achievement in itself, as out of the 1.3 million students across the country who took the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT), only 15,000 were chosen as finalists. For House, however, the designation also carries a special significance: She is the first student in the Chadwick R-1 School District to ever be named a finalist in the National Merit program. more
We are not looking forward to this week's weather forecast. There is a lot going on in the schedule, and bad roads are not good for that. But we are luckier than most places around the U.S. more
The Groundhog says more cold weather, and I believe him. These springlike days can't last long in February. more

We still have a little snow hanging in shaded places, and, we still have to watch for those icy places. We have had some pretty nice days and still have to make sure there are plenty of warm clothes in our automobiles. more

Mark Twain National Forest offers a wide spectrum of recreation opportunities to Forest visitors, including motorized trail riding. The Ava/Cassville/Willow Springs (ACW) Ranger District provides the public with access to off-highway vehicle (OHV) riding opportunities along the Chadwick Motorized Trail System. Projects to improve this popular OHV trail system and the nearby Cobb Ridge Campground are in the works. New shower buildings will be installed to replace the old ones within the next two years. Trail maintenance will occur more frequently, thanks to a new service contract being put in place. A new, automated fee machine is planned to be placed in the Cobb Ridge Campground, as early as next year. The fee machine will have the ability to issue the daily and annual OHV permits, as well as campground site fees. more
