The Plainview High School boys and girls basketball teams traveled to Lone Star School (north of Yuma) Friday evening for their first ball game of the season. Both teams lost, but it was a good learning experience. Several sets of parents traveled through the dense fog to support the teams. Their next game is Monday - Jr. High girls and boys followed by High School girls and boys at Plainview.

Dick and I traveled to Colorado Springs Tuesday to do some car shopping. We were successful and drove a Chevy Traverse home. Things have sure changed over the last 50+ years. We now pay more for a car than we did for our first home.
