Circle County Market is getting a new look. Talking with Owner Dave Barbula, he stated that when they purchased the store they wanted to move the aisle so they ran parallel to entrance.

Well, it seems Old Man Winter just won't give it up. As a result, hay and feed supplies continue to dwindle – a hay supply that in most cases had no surplus when feeding started earlier than normal last fall. Bring on the green grass, huh? That looks to be a ways off looking out the window today, and with it will come other concerns. Turning out at the first sign of grass growth has consequences. Plants need the opportunity to establish a good root base. Grazing plants too early and too often can deplete root reserves and result in poor pasture...

Some 700 years before Christ was born, the prophet explained in Isaiah 53:5-6 But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed. 6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way;...
