Social Speaks: Bo Pelini


What do you think of the audio tape recently released with Bo Pelini saying some inappropriate things about the Husker fans two years ago? Should he be punished, fired, or do you think his apology is acceptable?

Tree trimming time


Our shady maple tree needed some trimming over Labor Day weekend. There were some dead branches, and some were hollowed out, so we are very happy that we trimmed it, thanks to Ned Boyle and Michael Redding. Now, we don’t need to worry that our house will be damaged or, worse yet, a branch would hit a car driving by. Thanks Ned and Michael!
