Sometimes Obedience Means GO Guatemala continued…a trip within a trip: The mountain before me looked like a climb alright as our team made its way up. A tall white cross atop could be seen from below which was exactly where I was standing…below! It looked doable as the trail ahead flatly zigzagged its way back and forth making the eye believe it was an easier climb than it was.

By Arnold Krusemark Our gardening this time of year consists of two kinds: outside snow and inside catalogue. Outside we wonder how many snowfalls we will get and how high the snow drifts. And finally - when will winter be over. Most of us have been through some heavy winter storms with good stories to tell. The kids (and most of us grownups too) have stories of years when we had snow weeks starting with the blizzard on Sunday, snow through Wednesday and maybe two days of school each week. And then flood(s) when the snow melted in the spring.

The MCC Rebel Girls were on the road Tuesday night looking for a bit of redemption. The Rebels played very competitive basketball before Christmas, winning two games and playing close in a couple of others. That strong play hasn’t followed the Rebels into 2023, but on Tuesday the Rebels could avenge a missed opportunity. The Rebels played Mountain Lake Area Comfrey in Slayton earlier in the year. The Rebels led by 13 points with 13 minutes to go and were outscored 24 to 2 over the rest of the game. Tuesday night the Rebels were looking to flip the script on the Wolverines and they would and then some.

The Flying Dutchmen and the MCC Rebels came into the game on Saturday in a similar fashion. The Rebels lost a tough game to Red Rock Central while Edgerton lost by two points to Westbrook Walnut Grove. The Flying Dutchmen were one game above 500 coming into the game while the Rebels were still looking for that third win of the season. The Flying Dutchmen would be the only team leaving the gym happy on Saturday.
