From Dubois County

Good afternoon, Reader,

I spent three hours in interviews today with about eight people for three different stories.

From Dubois County with love.

Matthew and Amy Crane

Vance is a train enthusiast, and he and his family were exploring the museum Saturday morning. Hey Reader, I'm an experiential learner, I joked with my wife. I was trying to explain why I made a heavy wager on a round in my second official game of Cinch. It was to see the fail points in...

Friday, Jan. 9, 2026 Issue #234 From Dubois County This is our friends' dog, Hoosier. He'll probably sleep through the game tonight. Happy Friday Reader, Quite a bit of news in the letter today.
