Weekend observations: Why isn't Small Business Saturday a bigger deal here? Dozens more rail cars parked just around the bend from Glenn Milner. High school football playoff updates. Sunny, mid 50s through Sunday.

Today's first headlines:

• Weekend observations: #SmallBizSat needs a steroid shot, special sales -- and the support of area shoppers anxious to keep their dollars working in Northwest Georgia.
• Those rail cars lining Glenn Milner are only part of the picture. Another long line of idled cars can be found starting under the Turner McCall Bridge adjacent to Garner & Glover (and all were still there Friday).
• Education: Some good news for Shorter's sports management program. Berry's eagles preparing nest for early January arrivals.
• Ware Mechanical Weather: Nice way to end the holiday weekend -- mid 50s, sunny skies.
• Obituaries: Baby Legend Dreamer, Mrs. Pearl Evans, Ms. Alma Jean Ford, Ms. Janice Lee Stairett, Edith Swint, Mrs. Christie Alena Terry Woodard.
• Dining: Public Health restaurant inspection scores, Tuesday-Saturday.
• Crimewatch brought to you by Big Dan's Car Wash. Updates on arrests.
