“12 Strong” is one of those January movies that wants people to think that it’s in awards contention even though it isn’t. We’re at the point in the year when movies that opened in limited release in December are starting to go wide because of awards season. “The Post” from last week followed that template; it’s technically a 2017 movie and it wants recognition as one of the best films of 2017, but it’s content to do most of its business in 2018.

I guess what doesn’t kill you will make you stronger, and after the week that the County Line Rivals went through I am sure this statement is true. With a tri-meet in Limon on Thursday night and then following it up on Saturday for the Miner’s Wrestling Tournament in Trinidad. This time of the year not only the weight factor comes in to play, but let’s throw in flu season. The Tri-Meet was a kickoff to the weekend with Kiowa and Limon and although not many matches were wrestled it was good to see some of the Rivals get in a win. Saturday was an early 3:45 a.m.
I guess that ole' man winter finally decided to make an appearance in our area. It has been near blizzard conditions since around 1:00 p.m. today. About everyone I called, didn't have any news and was glad to be inside and staying warm.
All of the outdoor Christmas decorations are put away for another year. Now we have moved on into the next events of our life. We are having babies (goats that is). We had a set of triplets Thursday - they are so cute - but like all things, they outgrow that.
