Cross Timbers Gazette

Here's more proof that micro-local news is alive and well, and that someone (not this blogger) is making money on it.

Perhaps I've been in a hole all my years in Flower Mound, or perhaps I've been living too far south, but until tonight I had not heard of the Cross Timbers Gazette. It's a mailed newsletter, focusing on our neighboring communities Bartonville, Argyle, Copper Canyon, Double Oak and Lantana. But some Flower Mounders get the Gazette, it appears, according to its nameplate. Probably the FMers getting the Gazetter are those who live in the rural areas to the west and northwest.

Anyway, now we can all read up, thanks to my friend Max at LantanaLinks.com, who's posting the current issue of the Cross Timbers Gazette on his website, as a PDF file download. According to the Gazette's nameplate, this pub is in its 32nd year. Again I ask, where have I been?
