Question: I do a lot of over-the-road traveling for work. Can I stop and stretch my legs along the freeway?

Dear Master Gardener

In most cases, people do not greet each other in a formal manner. I miss this as informal everyday greetings are fine with me, however the greetings we share during holidays, birthdays or special events sometimes lack a sense of occasion.

The Mark Peterson Memorial, Goose Fest Rodeo 2023, was a huge success. We had people come to Goose Fest who would not normally come, but they came to see the rodeo and to see what Goose Fest was all about. It brought in $26,653.60, which is being used to support the Middle River Legacy Center. Its goal or mission is to be self-sustaining for another year. Which this rodeo achieved. This also means no city taxpayer monies will be used to run this building. The Legacy building was able to pay its own way last year and will be able to do it this year as well. This is made possible with the help of the fundraising done by the Legacy Center committee, Rodeo committee, and all the supporters in this area and beyond.
