Blessings and opportunities

Body
I have been blessed to work for Alpine ISD for the past 16-½ years. In many ways, it seems as if this time has gone by in the blink of an eye. The memories I have made with friends, co-workers, and my family are priceless. I love our school district and the community of Alpine.

A look at Joe Biden

Body
Joe Biden is a bungling career Democrat politician who claims to use their truths over our facts. Joe once said if a black person voted for Donald Trump, they ain’t Black, and Trump voters were dregs of society.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Body
Thanksgiving is a truly special time of year. It allows us to slow down just a little and spend more quality time with family, friends, neighbors, and loved ones. This holiday is also the perfect opportunity for reflection and gratitude. This Thanksgiving, the city would like to share a special message of thanks.

Body
Because life is mostly made up of little experiences occasionally interrupted by big events, it’s easy to take the little things for granted.

Body
This is the third installment of a three part series. The first was written from this man’s perspective as to why men love football.

But first, a short recap of the two prior submissions.

Think about it

Body
Parents thinking of vaccinating your children, here is some information from the FDA and CDC, “But we’re never going to learn about how safe this vaccine is unless we start giving it. That’s just the way it goes.”

So what’s up at Sul Ross

Body
After several conversations with local citizens and business owners, it is clear to me that the Alpine community cannot get the fall 2021 Sul Ross enrollment statistics. This is glaringly obvious because in prior years, those statistics by campus were front page news. I would assume that local media depend on that information being provided by the university.

Thank you, veterans

Body
Nov. 11 is a day when we honor all our veterans who put on the uniform to protect our way of life, and never asked for a thank you. Many came back injured, and had to adjust to a new way of life. Remember, freedom is not free!
Thank you, veterans
