Ready-to-go: SMRAS holds holiday pet adoptions
Ready-to-go: SMRAS holds holiday pet adoptions
Last week, the San Marcos Regional Animal Shelter held two adoption events across town in its effort to get pets out of the shelter and into homes. The first was held at Ivar’s River Pub on Nov. 14, where two dogs, one from foster and another from the shelter, were adopted and the second, held at the assisted-living community. Brookdale North on Nov. 19, saw the adoption of six cats. From the 301 animals in their care, 166 of those are currently in foster homes. 12/05/2021 05:00 AM
Yard of the Month
Yard of the Month
A front yard filled with colorful Texas flowers and a backyard garden producing vegetables is still a San Marcos scenario as the year draws to a close and our northern neighbors deal with freezing weather. As December’s Yard of the Month, Spring Lake Garden Club features the home of Richard and Aleene Howser on Crystal Cove in the Hills of Hays neighborhood, east of Iinterstate 35 on Staples Road. A showy front garden is the result of hours of planning and tending, but also the advantage of location — an area of fertile farmland and grazing acres before new homes were built in the late 1980s. 12/05/2021 05:00 AM

A holly jolly Christmas starts with these two natives
Farmers want to get rid of them, landscapers want to plant them, and this time of the year we sing about them. No doubt about it though, native hollies are at the top of the list for the landscape. 11/28/2021 04:00 AM

Texas’ own Stephanie Umoh stars as Angelica in ‘Hamilton’
Stephanie Umoh’s career in theater began as many others do: thrust upon an elementary school stage, only to be immediately seized by paralyzing stage fright. 11/28/2021 04:00 AM

The Journey Continues: Looking toward Christmas
The Journey Continues: Looking toward Christmas
My journey, looking toward Christmas, takes me to the Salvation Army’s iconic Red Kettles Campaign for Hays County. Each year we are given the opportunity to share our time and efforts in staffing one of the kettle locations. Ringing the bell as a volunteer is an investment not only to help those in need, but also in myself as a responsible adult — a “pay it forward” for the many blessings I have received. 11/28/2021 04:00 AM
