YOU ARE "SIMPLY THE BEST"!!
The Cowboy Supper and Bingo was a huge success Saturday night. Not only was it well attended, the food delicious, but your generosity was outstanding. With the supper, bingo and funds donated, this fundraiser for the Chavez family brought in about $1,300. Great job!!

"GHOST" WHITE DOG ROAMING THE AREA
The situation of the white "ghost" dog is that, he/she is being fed and has a warm place that it sleeps. Chris talked to a person that knows the breed very well and was advised NOT to try and catch it. We do not want to scare the dog from its safe, warm, feeding area. Chris will continue to feed this dog and hopefully gain its trust, if anyone can it's Chris. Thanks to all for your concern!

With the weather outside being cold and gloomy, maybe you're spending more time on your computer. I thought I'd share some blogs that I enjoy and follow on a regular basis.
http://www.hip2save.com/ is the money saving website that Susan J. is keeping busy with. If you are a couponer or would like to be, this is the website! Save money on all sorts of items just by following this blog on regular basis.
http://www.dailycoyote.net/ is mainly a blog of photographs of a coyote being raised by a young woman in Wyoming. Her photography is beautiful and her story is interesting as well.
http://www.andelinempire.blogspot.com/ (The Boonie Life) Carrie's photography is amazing. What she captures through the lens of her camera is so fun and creative. She truly has a gift. The words and pictures are something that her family will cherish forever.
I have posted this list off to the left for your future reference.
