How Success Can Hurt a Business

By Dan Acree on June 18, 2009

John’s simple black and white flyer also noted his Texas State irrigator’s license number. The brief sales copy was on target and to the point. He hit all of the important things a homeowner might want to know—that he can fine-tune and repair your system.

Victorian Tea Party

By Ginger Mynatt on December 1, 2008

When Charlie and Gloria Morton purchased the Inn of Many Faces in 2001 from sisters Pat Gunter and Judy Johnson, they bought not only a beautifully restored and furnished Victorian home, but also a collection of faces scattered throughout the house. Many of the faces are carved in the lovely old pieces of furniture, not glaring out at you, but quietly waiting for you to find them.

The Mighty, Seed

By Jessie Gunn-Stephens on December 1, 2007

You can grow an astounding array of flowers, vegetables and herbs from seeds right here in Texomaland, if you just don’t let the instructions on the seed packets intimidate you. “Start seeds indoors six weeks before first frost-free date,” they direct you. Balderdash!

Falcon Boats

By Special to TLM on June 1, 2007

For Texoma striper anglers the “be all to end all” in custom boats is a Falcon. Jeff Gooden and Joe Simmons own the Falcon Boat Company that builds striper bass boats in Sherman, and the two present an interesting contrast of age and expertise. Each man brings something special to the business.

Digging U.S. 75

By Dan Acree

Solitary squares cut out of the pavement one by one have prompted rumors that TXDOT was frittering away stimulus money by repairing twelve foot sections of highway one at a time, or even that the soil under the Grayson County roadbed was unusually unsupportive and was being studied by scientists. A grain of truth sprouts most rumors, but this time the collective wisdom is way off the mark.

Air Traffic Control

By Staff Report

The Federal Aviation Administration expects to hire more than 12,000 new Air Traffic Controllers over the next decade and that means business for Grayson County’s North Texas Regional Airport. Mike Shahan, the airport director, says the rarely used control tower will be very active again beginning this summer. It’s part of a deal with L-3 Communications to train new controllers.

The Idle Time fun boat on Lake Texoma

Burns Run

By Gene Lenore

When the engineers closed the flood gates on Denison Dam in February 1944 and the waters of Lake Texoma began to spread out behind what was then the world’s largest rolled earth-filled dam. Soon, people were drawn to the lake for recreation as family attractions popped up around along the shores.

Remote Possibilities

By Special to TLM

As pilot Bruce Lemoine brought his Japanese Zero in for a landing, everyone watched anxiously. The war birds have a tendency to tip over on the propeller, fellow pilot Dan Eshelman said as the plane closed on the runway. Lemoine lined up his plane for a landing on the grass next to the runway to soften the blow to the prop in case the WWII bird tipped, but the extra precautions were unnecessary.
