Linden is enjoying a little cooler weather for this time of year. Here it is, the first weekend in August, and temperatures were in the high 80s with only 60% humidity. We will take any break we can get.
“No one is big enough to be independent of others,” once said Dr. William W. Mayo. By working with others, he found his greatest success as a doctor. His efforts, along with his two sons, resulted in the Mayo Clinic, one of the most famous and most respected medical institutions in the nation.
It’s a new day in Northeast Texas with new opportunities to serve our community. This Saturday, August 8th we’re having our second Farms to Families food drive courtesy of the USDA and our local Fairview Reunion Corporation. The drive will take place at the old Millstep building located on S. Main St. right next to our local public library and will start at approximately 8:00 a.m. We will be lining up cars and distributing fresh food in the same manner we did at the previous drive, so come out and get some delicious produce.
Thank you for all the well wishes after my first “Capital Highlights” column last week. I also appreciate the emails suggesting topics of high interest. Agriculture, oil, education and health care top the list so far, but please keep the conversation going about what’s happening in your corner of our big state and what is of highest interest to you.
