Ty's Take

Football season around here is the closest thing we have to a statewide holiday, and the Tigers are sharpening up after what sounds like a solid offseason under the lights. You can't walk through Houston without hearing talk about who's back, who's stepped up, and whether this year's squad can make a run when it counts. Meanwhile, Cabool's keeping the tax levy steady, which means the council sat down and made the kind of unglamorous decisions that keep a town running without surprises. Not flashy work, but it's the kind of thing that matters when you're trying to balance schools, roads, and services in a community that doesn't have much room for error. Between the Friday night lights and the Monday morning choices that keep the lights on the rest of the week, this is how it works out here.
