Column: Off the record memories from 2012
I’ve spent the past couple of days sifting through all of the stories and columns I’ve written over the past year. I have to say, it’s kind of fun. Doing the research helps me to remember so many things I’d forgotten about. In a way, my computer seems to be not only a history book of Farmington, but of my life.

Editorial: Farmington came through with toys
Just a few weeks ago, police chief Brian Lindquist was in a difficult situation. He expected a big demand for this year’s Toys for Town drive, and with the collection period moving quickly toward its end, donations had been slow to come in. There appeared to be a very real possibility the department’s efforts would fall short for the first time in memory.
