Omena Mayor first-of-a-kind

Omena Mayor first-of-a-kind

The news is still galloping around Omena that the new Mayor of Omena is a horse, Lucky Dinero Bosco. The Omena Dogacratic Party has been caterwauling all week about the fact that for the first time in the history of the Omena Mayor, there is no dog in the top three administrative positions. However, Jovi Labriola, a German Shepherd-Husky mix and Public Relations expert, points out that the canines swept Village Council, holding 12 of the 15 positions. Also, Emmie Tomlinson, a mini-Golden Doodle, and Ruby Emmert, an Old English Sheepdog, completed the top five vote-getters category. 07/31/2024 06:36 PM

Quick draw/ plein air in G-A

Quick draw/ plein air in G-A

It is said that this week is the busiest of the summer and so far it’s working out to be true. I hope the weather holds out for the vacationers and that they all have a great time. Some complain because it’s so busy, some are happy to see the relatives, friends and others welcome the business. So, the bottom line is be careful when parking and specially watch when your walking. Some are still able to remember the big wind in 2015, not much evidence of it anymore trees have grown back and most of us don’t talk when we hear wind. Now the big wind is politics. 07/31/2024 06:36 PM
