Notes from the west Jan 2025

- Cats rule -

It was so cold this morning that the cat was hogging the heater. She sat her little chin on the bar and gave no thought to my comfort.

I went out to the mailbox to post a letter just as a fellow working for the appraisal district was slowly driving by in the barditch. He got out and introduced himself, but I didn't catch his name. It's too bad he had to see me in my pajamas.

The commissioners meeting yesterday was a two part deal, both very short. Stuart Posey, the new commissioner for precinct three, had his first day with the court. 

It was good to see that Jeanna Parks, county treasurer, was there.

The quorum went into a closed session about 10 minutes into assembly, then returned for about six minutes before adjourning.

One thing that caught my interest was something said by Micah Evans, the commissioner for precinct four. The meeting had resumed after the closed session and a motion was made by Judge Ken Holt for approval on a professional services contract with Sterling Burleson, agenda item 12.

Right before a unanimous vote of yes was given, Evans said, "This is just in regards to the case that's...".

I wonder what case that is. I'm hoping to see some clues in the next issue of the Double Mountain Chronicle.
