A Good Time For Thursdays & Harvesting Wheat

Banner County News, Notes & Nonsense

Good morning everyone! And a beautiful morning it is!

I find that if I get myself out of bed early enough it really is beautiful out there. Way before it becomes so blasted hot. Great weather for harvesting wheat, though.

The Harrisburg Community Church had a picnic this past Sunday and a hot horseshoe tournament followed.

Great food, friends, and fun something we all needed.

Speaking of food, If you are not supposed to eat at night, why is there a light in the refrigerator?

Thursdays are becoming the day of the week for what is going on. Here is at least some of what is going on this Thursday, July 16th:

In Alliance the Chamber of Commerce Tunes N’ Blooms Mic/Jam Nights will begin. This week it will be at the Carnegie Arts Center Sculpture Garden, located at 204 4th Street. It will be from 7-10 p.m. and is Free and open to the public.
