Cats and the Heartland Pet Connection

Friday, June 25th, 2010 by Russanne Erickson

I talk about my cats like they are people. I am probably one four legged friend short of being a cat lady, as some of my non-cat friends have pointed out, but I’m okay with that. I got my cats from Heartland Pet Connection last July when they were having a kitty sale.

Point and Shoot

Friday, June 18th, 2010 by Scott Miller

Growing up I was the subject of many photographic outings. My father took more pictures than anyone I knew. I may not find the same things interesting as he does/did but I definitely have a tick that makes want to take pictures of some of the most obscure and random things.

I sat down in my back yard to write about an entirely different topic for the HWord just now, and was distracted by the abundance of wildlife surrounding me, here in the middle of Hastings.

Road Side Gold

Tuesday, May 25th, 2010 by Scott Miller

We drive past these things every week. Normally we don’t think twice about it, we just drive past and continue on our way. The problem is that we miss out on some of the best items to be had for free or for little money. I am talking about the treasures that people leave on the side of the curb.

Concert Season

Tuesday, May 11th, 2010 by Dan Peters

Spring (and even a little bit of summer) are in the air! The Hword has already seen a number of articles on the joys of this season and for good reason. This really is the most wonderful time of year and I base that fact on two powerful and very exciting words: Concert Season!

The Hastings Public Library is Super Rad!

Friday, April 23rd, 2010 by Russanne Erickson

Books are amazing. The day after I moved here – literally – I went to the library to get my library card. I didn’t have anything with my address on it, so I had to have my landlord type up a letter saying I did indeed live at the Chateau. The library lets you read books for FREE!

Springtime In Hastings

Monday, April 19th, 2010 by Andy Herrmann

About three weeks ago, I had the most glorious Monday I could remember having in quite some time.
