Around Town

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
Go after what you want. Channel your energy into what counts, and make this a year to remember. Stop worrying about what others are doing, and start figuring out what's best for you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
Make things happen. If you lack what you need to follow a dream that excites you, pick up the skills, knowledge or whatever else is required. Shoot for the stars, and see what transpires.

Others who’ve passed on have left memories of the legendary robbers’ swings through Ennis.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) 
Your associations will make or break you this year. Choose your allies carefully, and know enough to walk away from users and unreliable people.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Gangsters Clyde Barrow and Bonnie Parker, immortalized in books and movies since their sensational demise in a 1934 shootout, cut a marauding swath across Arkansas, Oklahoma, New Mexico and Louisiana. But the pair couldn’t help returning to their home state of Texas, where their path of crime often led them through Ellis County and, a few times at least, into Ennis. Some locals still recall stories of the thieving duo’s stops in town.
