Seminole Junior High School student J.W. Nunn not only participated in the Chris Shiver MBR Last Chance Qualifier V, a pre-show to the PBR World Finals in Arlington Nov. 12-15, but while there he took third place for the overall world standings in the MBR (Mini Bull Rodeo). According to his mother, Jolena, J.W. covered four out of six bulls and had to re-ride. “He got pretty beat up this weekend,” his mom said. “He was smashed into the chute on two rides but that didn’t stop him. He limped his way out of the arena and got on another one and covered him. J.W. is one tough cowboy. Aside from how well he rides, it is really the luck of the draw. He gave it all he had and we couldn’t be more proud.” J.W. is the son of John and Jolena Nunn of Seminole (Contributed photo)

The home of Lanell and Allen Flaugher, located at 252 Telephone Road, is the Seminole Sentinel’s second Yard of the Week for July. The local newspaper is hosting the event this summer, and Susie Wiebe, the owner of Blumenflor, is providing gift cards for the winners. Home to whimsical ironwork- much of it depicting animals- and blooming Mandevilla, Hibiscus, Bougainvillea, and other tropical plants, the front of the Flaugher home is an oasis in West Texas. Lanell, owner and operator of Wigglebutts Kountry Resort, possesses the green thumb while Allen provides the watering for the flowers. The couple has been at their scenic location since the late 1990s and enjoys morning coffee on their porch surrounded by their plants and pooches.
