I sat through a zoning hearing once, it was in the aftermath of a massive road and water project that had the 4 lane main route through town closed or detoured for the better part of a year. One of the businessmen that was on the route wanted to pave his parking lot. It was so funny it was pathetic and was a prime example of governmental power gone wrong. There was a "discussion" that went on for 40 minutes where the restaurant owner was told repeatedly that they would approve his pavement if he planted some bushes in a specific area and moved his dumpster to another location. The problem, they wanted the dumpster moved to property that wasn't his and if he planted the bushes where they wanted him he wouldn't have enough room for handicap parking unless he encroached his neighbor's property. The problem was one of the zoning board members made up her mind what she wanted long before the meeting and wouldn't even allow a vote until she got what she wanted, but what she wanted would require the restaurant have a larger lot than they did. This is a case where the owner should of been able to walk away from the zoning/planning commission with their decision and used it to appeal his taxes under a diminished value as improvements or even changes required to meet ADA requirements would not be approved. The situation was finally resolved when one of the real estate brokers in town hired the one board member as an agent which forced her to resign due to possible conflict of interest.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
