Rural life and humor, with characters from the mind of Slim Randles.

Hello from the Extension Office. I’m sorry that you have not heard much from me, but I am sure that everyone knows that the COVID-19 coronavirus situation has changed all our lives.

After a no face-to-face order was put in place, it was lightened - a little. Programs that cannot be completed virtually have been allowed. These activities must be approved not only by Kiowa County, but also by all levels of Extension.

Differences in the viruses' biology and societal contexts mean there's no guarantee today's pandemic will mirror the 'waves' of infection a century ago.

Strong wind, large hail, tornadoes and flooding are possible across most of Colorado.

Extreme and severe drought resumed expansion in Colorado according to the latest report.
