Searching for Bowie County History--Old Union

Searching for Bowie County History--Old Union

The picture here was brought in to the Tribune by reader Brenda Grant. It is a picture of the Old Union School that was once located off Hwy. 67 near what is now Corley. Although current maps indicate this community is called Old Union, it apparently was also known as Poer in the 19th century and had a post office until the early 1900s. 01/08/2025 10:03 AM

Rejection is Real

Rejection is Real

Hello everyone! It’s been a minute! I hope you all had a very merry Christmas and happy new year. Today I want to talk about rejection. We have all felt this before. Rather if it was when you were 16 or when you were 47 rejection hurts deep. 01/08/2025 10:02 AM

Dove of Hope

Water. I love to drink it. But floating on it? Not my favorite pastime. Remember Noah? He spent some quality time afloat in that giant boat. Everywhere he looked—north, south, east, and west—water. Just water. For forty days and nights, the rain came down, unrelenting. I imagine Noah sitting in that ark, surrounded by the noises of animals and the pounding rain, wondering, How long will this last? Can God re-create the world? Can we begin again? 01/08/2025 10:02 AM

What Wikipedia Can’t Tell You

It’s a new year – 2025! In many ways, I never thought I would live long enough to see this year. I guess God has other plans for me (and glad I am). I’m beginning this year with great anticipation. Not the “Anticipation” I felt when I sang along with Carly Simon in my hey days, but anticipation of hope and joy … not fear! 01/08/2025 10:02 AM

Texas drivers must “Move Over or Slow Down” to protect roadside workers

Every day, thousands of law enforcement officers, first responders and road maintenance crews work on Texas highways braving high-speed traffic and distracted drivers. Tragically, many of them are injured or killed on the job. To help prevent harm to these essential workers, TxDOT urges drivers to abide by the state’s “Move Over or Slow Down” law. 01/08/2025 10:01 AM
