4 Sets of Twins born

      Yesterday was a great day for the Simons family 4 sets of twins were born in Valentine. The mothers were all sisters and had planned this event, yet it still remains a mystery on how they all had twins. Doctors say this is extremely rare and only happens maybe once in a million births. The mothers all decided to name their babies similar names. Welcome Randy, Andy, Sandy, Mandy, Jenny, Penny, Lenny, and Denny to the Big Bend!

      A local man has completed a unique task this weekend. Ted Williams ran completely backwards from Alpine to Study Butte. Ted said that this task was on his bucket list and he was very proud to complete it. Other things Ted wants to achieve include a 24 hour painting marathon and a bicycling on handle bars for 1000 miles.
