      “What’s Happening in Royal?”

      NEWS FLASH, May—Everyone in the town of Royal is talking about a possible reconciliation of our favorite marrieds—Dakota and Kathy Lewis! ’Course, all those single gals are hoping it isn’t true, as the swoon-inspiring former air force lieutenant Dakota Lewis proves a mighty catch.

      Seems the reunion began when woman-of-the-world Kathy returned to Royal unexpectedly to meet with our dashing Texas Cattlemen—her hubby, Dakota, included—behind closed doors. And where-oh-where did Kathy and Dakota disappear to soon after?

      Perhaps our boys at the Cattleman’s Club can finally give us some answers? We’re waiting here with bated breath…. Stay tuned!
