Some weeks are weirder than others. Last week's bear in a tree seems pretty tame, compared to a guy hunting with blow darts in Coulee Dam this week, then mysterious crop circles found in Lincoln County wheat fields.
A photo of the crop circles appears here, but that's all there was time to get by our early deadline this week; the paper is going to press a day early because of the Fourth of July holiday.
Next week, in the paper and online, we'll try to bring you more on the crop circles and anything else, weird or normal, that crops up.
In the meantime, please try not to make news with fireworks. The heat is going to be high and dry. Fireworks could easily turn to brush fire and destroyed homes.
Have a great holiday, when, at least once, you pause to think about the birth of a great nation and a great notion, a government ruled by its people. Raise a cold one to keeping it that way.
