Results released from Lancaster benefit rodeo
Results have been released from the benefit rodeo in honor of Dane Lancaster, the 11-year-old roper who’s currently recovering from injuries suffered in May, which took place Saturday in rural Montague.
Rodeo organizers have reported a generous five-figure sum was raised from activities, which also included live and silent auctions inside the Montague County Cowboy Church.
Lancaster attended the rodeo, and took a lap from inside a cart with his family.
There was a special guest appearance from Texas Tech’s Masked Raider, who was Mackenzie White.
Lancaster received a special hat signed by all 12 finalists in the calf roping competition at the Cheyenne (Wy.) Frontier Days.
All contestants in the youth rodeo signed a rope can, and Lancaster also received a circa 2002 Cheyenne Frontier Days rodeo poster.
Lancaster, a resident of rural Bowie, was born in 2002, the son of Diran and Kellie Lancaster.
The auction contained items such as tickets to a Texas Rangers baseball game, Leddy Boots, a handmade pair of boots from the Fenoglio Boot Company in Nocona, two tickets to the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas and a Trevor Brazile all-around saddle. Brazile donated three items in all.
Winners received buckles.

Get ready for more hot and mostly dry weather conditions this week! Outside of some very low rain/storm chances late this afternoon (and maybe tomorrow afternoon), the heat will be the main story for us! We’re almost there…fall is coming at some point!
A few years ago, if someone had suggested that I would be brewing tea from orange peels, fig leaves, and the assortment of wild plants flourishing in my yard, I would have giggled in disbelief. My perception of tea was limited to the neatly packaged bags sold at the store, each little bag a promise of convenience.
I still vividly recall a few memorable trips to Great Britain, where I savored the robust flavor of a PG Tips tea bag—moments like that felt exquisitely sophisticated to me! The British, with their ritual approach and passion for creating the perfect cuppa, truly have mastered the art of tea.

We are all familiar with the term surprise lilies. This name is mostly attributed to members of the Lycoris genus.
In the south the red Lycoris radiata and yellow Lycoris aurea are two of the most treasured surprise lilies.
We are approaching their season of bloom. If you aren’t familiar with the term surprise lily the descriptor is common as we forget about them, including where they were planted but suddenly as school approaches they begin to bloom in glorious displays.
