How do they suddenly decide that tonight is the night? Everyone that shows up for the bat viewing is awe- struck at the phenomena that unfolds before them.
Even though the nights are coming faster, there is still a great emergence to enjoy before total darkness sets in.
As the world turns, the drama being played out is anything but entertaining and peaceful. I do not have to wonder what brought so many evacuees to the Eckert James River Bat Cave Preserve the past few weeks.
The 3.2 million Mexican free tail bats that are currently inhabiting the cave gave nightly emergences that inspired a feeling of peace.

I keep you on my mind both day and night
And happiness I’ve known proves that it’s right

“Boss” Lion Jim Heidelberg convened the weekly meeting of the Mason Lions Club on September 12. Thirty members and three guests attended the meeting.
Every week the City deals with a wide variety of tasks and situations, some of them are “big” in that they will impact the community for many years and some seem rather “small” that change only a very small part of our town. Last week we had a couple of challenges that represent that wide variety and may give you a better idea of the scope of City concerns.
