Builders build during dry season

- John Deere, Rotan -

There may not be a new dollar store going up on the south side of town, but the Rotan John Deere house is growing. United Ag & Turf is more than doubling in size and it's going up fast.

There were people on the Rotan Ace Hardware site this week, measuring and marking.

In Roby, there has been a major clear out around the old truck stop on the west side of town. There are workmen on big equipment getting down to the dirt.

In Sweetwater, it looks like they're building a major sports complex for the school. There are fancy new tennis courts west of the Mustang Bowl.

It's good to see things going outward and upward around the Rolling Plains.
