class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>I remember, as a child, going to the feedstore with my Granddaddy.&nbsp; It was always an adventure.&nbsp; I would stand beside him and listen as he and the other men would talk about things&#8211;happenings in town, what time the domino game would be, and (of course) the weather\u2026always the weather.&nbsp; The weather discussion that day might have been because of animals, farming, or planting&#8211;but people who frequent feedstores care about the weather (and rightly so).<\/p>\n<p>The weather has certainly been a topic of discussion since the beginning of the year.&nbsp; Whether freezing or pouring, 2024 has done its best to make sure we took notice of its arrival.&nbsp; I am personally delighted to be past the point where I walk outside, shiver, and yearn for warmer days. Knowing those warmer days are coming is exciting, especially when I consider the things that come along with them&#8211;like spring blooms, bluebonnets, birds, bees, and communities seemingly coming to life after the dreary days of winter.<\/p>\n<p>County fairs are one of my favorite signs of spring, and they are happening soon all over our area.&nbsp; If you have never been \u2013 make it a point to go!&nbsp; There is SO much to see and experience, projects from all over the spectrum\u2014animals; crafts; photography; quilts and sewing; baked goods and foods; and construction.&nbsp; There are also livestock shows. Even if you have never been to one and have zero knowledge about what they are showing, it is super encouraging to the young people (who have worked so hard) to have their community there cheering them on.<\/p>\n<p>Your little ones may enjoy petting zoos and carnival rides, and let\u2019s also remember the food&#8211; funnel cakes, footlong corn dogs, and so much more. Fair food is always best when eaten at the fair!<\/p>\n<p>If I had to name a personal favorite about the fair, I think it would be the auction and freezer sales. This is when our community really shows up to let these young men and women know their hard work has been noticed, and we are proud of them.&nbsp; Local citizens, businesses and organizations come together to purchase the projects of these young people.&nbsp; Those who cannot afford large amounts can do \u201cadd-on\u201d money to help bump up the winnings these youngsters get to take home.&nbsp; I am always reminded these are local people and businesses helping local children, and I am so thankful for each of them.<\/p>\n<p>In the same way, I am incredibly thankful when I flip through the pages of this magazine. When it comes to community, <em>Postcards<\/em> shares that gratitude. &nbsp;We are able to do what we do because of the advertisers in these pages. <strong>Please<\/strong> let them know you appreciate them!&nbsp; You have no idea how much that will mean to them and to us.&nbsp; Enjoy warmer days!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Until next
