It was a stormy morning last Monday here in the valley with more severe weather and possible tornado warnings for all of Middle Tennesse with heavy rains and snow flurries.
Guess winter is still with us and for the sick and shut-ins, patience is required. After being in during the cold winter months, we become so anxious for warmer weather.
Thank goodness for college basketball games and March Madness.
Our favorite teams are Tennessee, Vanderbilt, Duke, Louisville, Indiana, Kansas, Michigan State, Consaga, Alabama and North Carolina.
Louisville’s men basketball team won the Big East Championship 2013 game against Syracuse in Madison Square Garden, the world’s most famous arena in New York City.
A very close game but a win for Louiville.
On last Monday the valley was without telephones, due to storm damage. DTC workmen were called to repair damage in the valley. We appreciate our phone service.
Jordan Cripps and Christian visited Mrs. Jim Cripps and family Friday.
Lisa Cripps visited her mother Louise Frazier and brought her a hot meal Tuesday evening.
Tom and Georgia Cripps are improving at their home on Dismal Road. Best wishes go to these nice people.
Glad to report that Claire Waggoner had a successful surgery at Cookeville Hospital and is back in school. Our love and best wishes go to Claire.
The weather continues to be very cold outside for March. We all need warmer weather, so we would feel better.
Mary Joines celebrated her birthday on March 18. Kathy Hendrix visited Mary and Bobby and took her gifts from the Frazier family.
