We tried this yesterday and we are doing it again today.
Various local high school and college sports events set for today were canceled due to troubles associated with today's heavy rains.
Christmas tree recycling
The Boy Scouts of America will recycle Christmas trees on Jan. 5. Please have your tree — stripped of ornaments, nails, metal, stands or spikes — on the curb or in front of the house, clearly visible by 9 a.m. A donation of $5 per tree is suggested and appreciated, according to the Boy Scouts.
