The junipers that were planted did not take, but the oak and ash trees seemed to fare quite well. It seems deer have...

In that section, there was an article from 70 years ago headlined "BAKER MEETS BULLDOGS IN OPENER HERE TONITE." It listed the names of the basketball players, all a part of my high school years, and very special friends of mine over the years. Yes, I have a couple pictures of that team, and yes it was a...
