About Town with Lavern Johnson January 26, 2011
It is supposed to snow again this week and again next week. Although not a lot of snow, it gives us some needed moisture. There is a drought in Texas and other states, so be glad when we get some snow. The winds of over 100 mph last week did damage to trees, fences, and roofs, etc. At least it got rid of all that ice, which is the most we can say for it.

Kevin Parker, who in recent months has been a study in brevity when giving his reports, took fifteen to twenty minutes to brief the Board on a multi-stage U.S. Pro-Am Cycling race that will pass through Lyons onHolistic Family Healthcare Grand Opening
