Favorite Christmas

Probably in the mid 60's...my brother Richard got a stingray 12 speed bike and I got a mini-bike,
we always had a little rivalry, he was a year older than me and challenged me to a race. Yea, that's right a race, his pedal power and my 3 1/2 horsepower mini-bike, we headed down to Patton Elementary school (Ft. Ord-California) where there was a 50 yard track. And we're off...I blew him away and shut him up for the rest of the day!


LUKE BRYAN SHARES THE STORY BEHIND HIS MOST MEANINGFUL CHRISTMAS GIFT
When it comes to Christmas gifts, Luke Bryan’s wife Caroline went above and beyond to deliver something truly special. In a new video, Bryan shares the story of his wife and father getting together to track down the pickup truck once owned by his older brother, Chris, who died in a car accident at the age of 26 when Luke was just 19. “The best Christmas present I have ever gotten, and will ever get, was when my wife Caroline went and found my brother’s old pickup truck from 1996,” Bryan revealed in the Instagram clip. “It was down in Louisiana, and it was still on the road. And her and my dad went down, they picked it up, brought it to Nashville, and Christmas Eve night pulled into the driveway with it. And let’s just say that, yes, the tears were flowing. It will never be topped. I don’t know how you’ll ever top it. What an amazing moment for me and my family. It was pretty special.”

It's Going to be a Chilly Winter!

What's the weather going to be like this winter? Well if you're hoping for mild and warm, you may be disappointed in the weather outlook from Al Dutcher, State Climatologist with UNL. Farmers, businessmen and others interested in what we'll see this winter came to Dutcher's presentation at the Columbus Chamber of Commerce on Thursday. 
Al started out his presentation by reviewing how the weather has been so far this fall and winter, and compared it to last year. This year’s La Nina event is much stronger than last year and expected to last longer.
Many people have commented on the recent stretch of dry weather we've been seeing in our region of Nebraska as of late, but Dutcher explained we received almost all of our fall precipitation during the month of October. 
Al said the La Nina pattern will keep dry conditions south of Nebraska, which will continue to expand the  drought in those areas. 
Dutcher says when looking at the La Nina event that we are currently experie…
