February is here! The Kansas City Chiefs are Super Bowl Champs and Punxsutawney Phil did not see his shadow, which indicates an early spring. This year, according to Live Science, meteorologists agree that an early spring is likely! But what does that really mean? We also have to note that according to an old wives tale, expect moisture 90 days after fog. If that is true, the end of April will be very wet! Guess we will just have to wait and see.
Sadness has once again hit our area hard.
Our deepest condolences to the families of Nan Hoffenkamp, Bob Lynn, Lawrence Loger, Hank Engels and LaVonne E. Klaassen. Blessed be their memory.
The Adrian Elementary 2nd grade class visited City Hall on Monday. They attended a mini City council meeting to learn about the function of the City Coouncil. They also had a couple of suggestions for improvements to Adrian. This week at AHS the students are celebrating Snow Week.

Thought for the week: The story is told that Satan was going out of business. All his tools were offered for sale. They were attractively displayed on a table. What an array-hatred, envy, jealousy, deceit! One harm-less looking one, much worn, was priced higher than any of the others. “What is that tool?” Satan replied, “discouragement.” “Why is it so expensive?” Satan’s answer: “Because it is more useful to me than any of the others.”
Have a great week!
