Blessings upon blessings

By Jack Hommell Without getting syrupy or maudlin about it at all, we are fortunate to live in this area of Arizona and Mohave County. There are many, many reasons to be thankful for all the bounty we experience day by day. I won’t try to enumerate the blessings, I’ll just ramble along, noting them as they come to mind. We have, first and foremost, some of the best weather in the entire country. It gets warm for the most of the summer, with a few scorcher days. In the short winter, we have a very few frosty days and…

Free-range cows creating damage to area homes

Dear Editor, Help! My father has lived in Kingman about 30 years. Recently for the last three months his property has been damaged by multiple cows walking through it. Just recently, he returned home from visiting me in Las Vegas to find his property damaged and lights broken by cows walking on it. He is on a corner in the Vista Bella area. A call to animal control only resulted in them saying the cows were free to roam regardless of the damage they do. This has happened to many neighbors and now my 78-year-old father has to work out…

All I want for Christmas is utopia

Dear Editor, An incorrect assumption has been proffered about an individual who does not share your particular point of view. Should I assume someone who calls you a socialist be considered a wannabe communist because they align with a president who seems to hold Putin in high esteem? When some individuals in the population overlook the president’s continual lying, deliberate obstructions of congressional inquiries, but then seem jubilant over their anticipated social security raises (a socialist program if ever there was one). Perhaps those individuals should not be questioning others political proclivities. It was Trump’s professor of marketing at Wharton…

Elks to host annual toy giveaway

Dear Editor, With the holidays upon us at a very fast pace, I want to wish you and your staff (Judeo and Christian) a Happy Chanukah and a very Merry Christmas. Traditions are important! Elks Lodge 468 is continuing its tradition with free toys to local children and bringing Santa Claus to the lodge on Dec. 24. He usually arrives at 900 Gates Avenue in Kingman around 5:00 p.m. by helicopter and sometimes by fire truck! The doors open at 4:30 p.m. for children and families to enjoy hot chocolate and cookies while they wait for Santa. Children from infants…
