Discovery of lunch plans derails couple’s marriage

DEAR ABBY: I have known my husband for 10 years. We have been married for four. We love each other very much, but I did something that has caused him to no longer trust me, and he won’t forgive me. I went to a pub while my husband was at a class. I told him I was going to the pub and he was fine with it. We know everybody who works there very well.

17 year old San Marcos resident named Hays Youth Poet Laureate

The article “City Approves Buc-ee's Incentives, Now To County” published on March 7, incorrectly stated that the San Marcos City Council voted unanimously in favor of the incentive agreement. The vote was 5-1 in favor of the agreement with Councilmember Alyssa Garza voting against. Councilmember Saul Gonzales was absent. The story has been corrected online. We apologize for the error.
