Spring sports gear up for Pirates, Lady Pirates

By Kay Mealio | kaymealio@embarqmail.com

PERRIN – So far, we have enjoyed a reasonably warm and wet winter. All the stock tanks are full and the ground is very soft from all the recent rains.

Fred has had to mow our lawn several times this winter, which is unusual, but he does a great job! He had to wait until the grass dried this week before he could get out mowing. Now he’s anxious to get into his garden and start planting. I hope that we’ll have a better one this year, the past couple of years the drought did not allow for us to reap anything.
