Today the South Lee County Volunteer Fire Department held its 43rd annual barbecue. I know I said something similar a few weeks back after we attended the Winchester Area Volunteer Fire Department’s fish fry, but seeing everybody turn out to support folks like this who volunteer their time to help their community is just fantastic!

Immanuel Lutheran Giddings Construction Progress
These pictures have been taken over the last week… they’ve been working toward pouring the slab and finally got that done this morning! Pastor Tiner gave me a heads-up that they would be doing it early in the morning, but for various reasons, I was unable to make it out before the pour was done.

Serbin Jackrabbits vs Shiner Clippers
Well, we had another great afternoon at the ballpark today in La Grange. The Jackrabbits fought hard but ultimately lost 7-3 to the Shiner Clippers.

I’ve been anticipating the Winchester Area Volunteer Fire Department’s annual fish fry fundraiser. I first heard about it last year, but we were out of town. Thankfully that wasn’t the case this year, because let me tell you… the fish was delicious! Margie, James, and I really enjoyed the whole evening. One thing I’ve really
