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.
