The rural news column did not make it into the paper this week. Another absent editor situation and then it gets turned over to someone who could not care less about the Franklin county area, and they use, in this case, news from the Pocatello area in the Preston paper. I can't apologize for something over which I have no control but I am sorry you readers won't find what you are expecting.
So glad that you took the time to see if the Mink Creek news was posted, but there isn't much sense in giving it to you two weeks in a row.
I can tell you that the neighborhood owls are having a field day (night) lately. I think they are auditioning for a winter choir because it isn't just the normal "who-who" there is some serious rearranging lately. Maybe they are discussing the absence of snow. Some snow is sticking around, but most of the terrain is bare and brown (tan). Or the topic might be that they are tabulating the number of Christmas trees that have been harvested and gone down the valley so far. That started a week or so before Thanksgiving so you know the quantities are high.
We have two electric stars for public viewing this season. One is on the front of the old Egley barn, now owned by the Danforth family, the other is atop of the silo along side of highway 36 as one drives thru Mink Creek. They both proclaim the joy of the season. I hope you are catching the goodness, no matter where you are, Merry Christmas, from Mink Creek.
