Thought for the week: “A politician thinks of the next election. A statesman thinks of the next generation.” James Freeman Clarke We were lucky that the big snow went south of us and we received a small amount on Thursday night. North Platte got over 14 inches and it did come down in the area where the fires were last week. Valentine received a couple inches. Travel to and from the basketball tournament was great. There wasn’t any mail delivered to Ainsworth and Johnstown on Friday since the mail couldn’t leave North Platte.

Carol Woods enjoyed attending the Nebraska State Basketball tournament. Her brother, Jim Marsh, accompanied her.
