RUSKIN, FLA. – Tony Hurt was just 6 years old when a natural phenomenon caught his attention while on a cruise with family in 1988.
“I was out and about roaming around on the deck and I saw a waterspout, actually we saw two waterspouts. But there was one that lingered a little bit longer than the other and everyone seemed to be unbothered by it,” Hurt said from his home in Ruskin.
He recalled the spectacle caused him some fear but curiosity, too.
The Glenwood Springs Demon Invite brought many positive results Thursday, Feb. 18 for Moffat County Bulldog swimmers in both individual races and relays. The Lady Bulldogs competed in 30 events and recorded impressive time cuts in 26 of those events.
MCHS’s varsity relay team of Hailey Knowles, Ellina Jones, Kelsey McDiffett, and Alexa Neton took third in the 200-yard freestyle and sixth in the 200 medley and the 400 Free Relay, with respective times of 1:54.64, 2:06.99, and 4:16.17.
“The focus of this meet was our relays, so most of the girls swam in three relays and one individual event. Last year, these times would have qualified us for state, but this year we have to be in the top 20 to go. Right now, we have all three relays in the top 20,” said head coach Melany Neton.
With the new semester just around the corner, I ve been trying my best to get back into the academic yet theatrical mindset I try to manage at school. I appreciated the extended winter break, but like usual, the extra time has sunk me into my hyperfixations and made me forget about a legendary time where I was actually a productive, responsible, and functional person in society. Fortunately, instead of reviewing old notes and photos to figure out where the time has gone, my school has crafted a way to bridge the gap between theatre-making and binge-watching to prepare me for what s to come!
Meet the tree twins! This anonymous couple gets in costume to spread holiday cheer TODAY 12/13/2020 Ronnie Koenig
In a holiday season that could use some extra cheer, the tree twins are making everyone they encounter smile.
A married gay couple who prefers to keep their true identities a secret, the tree twins have spent the last five Christmases going around the Bay Area, bringing Christmas cheer to strangers and expecting nothing in return.
The twins told TODAY via email that they waffled about whether it was going to be feasible for them to be out and about during the coronavirus epidemic, but they ultimately decided that their special brand of cheer was needed now more than ever.
