Downtown Norfolk is getting a mini makeover. Our downtown is already a center for unique shopping and eating experiences, and it is turning into a hub of art and music.

There’s one good thing about it being below 40 degrees this time of year — those low temps are keeping away what is supposed to be an abnormally high occurrence of tornadoes this spring and summer.

I read something really surprising the other day. I read that the Omaha Public Library has decided not to charge fines anymore for overdue materials. I was amazed. Libraries still exist?

These are exciting times at the Norfolk Senior Center. Although the center has been busy the past few weeks with vaccination clinics and, of course, distributing Meals on Wheels, it officially opened to pre-COVID “scheduled activities” on Monday.
