Ty's Take

The farmers market coming back to town this week is about more than tomatoes and squash, though Lord knows we need both after this dry stretch. It's the first real signal that summer's actually here in the valley, the one weekend morning when you run into half the county in one place and remember who you're living next to. July's late for a kickoff around here, but that's how it goes some years. Come Saturday, that's where the news really happens, before any of us get back to worrying about water, loans, and everything else that keeps us up at night the other six days of the week.

Ty's Take There's a stretch of bad luck running through the county this week, the kind that reminds you how quick things can turn. A four-car wreck south of town put four people in the hospital, somebody's facing charges over mushrooms (and you
