October Yard of the Month: Tended by the same hands since 1966
October Yard of the Month: Tended by the same hands since 1966
“All my plants have a story,” says Baudelia Arredondo, who has tended the same garden for over 50 years at her family’s home on Candlelight Lane in Sunset Acres. Built in 1966, her house was one of the first in a new subdivision adjoining Interstate 35 when the family began landscaping a bare lot. planting two pecan trees and lining the front walk with boxwood. As plants became established, the Arredondo home was chosen as an early yard of the month for San Marcos. As Spring Lake Garden Club repeats this honor some 50 years later, we celebrate Baudelia’s remarkable gardening skills, practiced even while she was employed full time and raising a family. 10/04/2020 12:00 AM

One of the most important roles of live theater is that it gives audiences a window — or sometimes a mirror — of empathy through which we can view the world. The theater is a safe space, but not one without discomfort. It’s a place where the stakes are not life and death, where we might be inspired to action or moved to tears, but at the end of the show, the lights go up, the curtains close, and the audience returns to normal life. 10/04/2020 12:00 AM

Dianthus looks to be absolutely ‘rockin’ for fall
Central Texans who always procrastinate planting cool season color better be on top of it this year if they want Rockin dianthus. This was a new series last year and disappeared quickly. Rockin dianthus is coming out of Pan American Seed. And is perennial in zones 5a-8b. That is a huge area geographically meaning happiness for gardeners everywhere. 10/04/2020 12:00 AM

The following article is part one of a five-week series focusing on raising awareness about domestic violence. October is Domestic Violence Awareness month and we hope to educate our community on this very important issue. 1 in 3 women will experience domestic violence in their lifetime. Locally, the Hays-Caldwell Women’s Center has been serving victims of domestic and dating violence, sexual assault and child abuse since 1978. Last year, HCWC served 2,307 victims of abuse (faceto-face) primarily from Hays and Caldwell Counties. 1,047 of those were victims of domestic violence. 10/04/2020 12:00 AM

Search on Spotify for Treat Her Right by Roy Head and the Traits, and you’ll find the face of a young Roy Head staring back at you. He wears a knowing smirk on his face as if even back in 1957 he knew that he’d be dancing and singing for all the rest of his days. 10/04/2020 12:00 AM
