Did Netflix and Redbox Kill the Video Store?

Wednesday, July 21st, 2010 by Russanne Erickson

When I moved to Hastings, I was happy to discover that there wasn’t a large chain video store like Blockbuster. It brought me back to my college days in Pullman when we would go “save Video Quest.” Pullman, which was about the same size of Hastings when I lived there, boasted two Blockbusters and the locally owned Video Quest.

Hidden In Plain View

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010 by Jerry Daniels

The new gallery show at Graham Gallery features an artist we haven’t seen before in this area, Patric Jernigan. He lives in Plainview, Texas. His wife has connections to a small Nebraska town, which brings them to Hastings from time to time. He liked Graham Gallery and the owner, Angela Graham, liked his art, so a show was born. It is called “The Book of Hidden Things”.

4th of July at Fisher Fountain

Thursday, July 1st, 2010 by Judy Sandeen

I’m not sure when the YWCA started holding their Independence Day celebration at Fisher Fountain, but I sure wish it had been going on when our two were little. On the other hand, maybe it’s even more fun to attend and take in the festivities without finding costumes, decorating the tricycles or wagons, and figuring out whether the pet should be in the parade.

Happy Father’s Day

Sunday, June 20th, 2010 by theHword

The photo exudes a mystical quality, both in look and sentiment, as though it were a scene fabricated in a dream.
