School is in - at the kitchen table 2021-03-23 - Adair County, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. Tuesday morning report - We are in Hailey's Shelbyville, KY Southside Elementary third grade class at her grandmother's kitchen table in Columbia. Teacher Atkins connected the Zoom meeting, took one look at the background, and said, "Hailey, where in the world are you this morning?"

The guest cat spotted me trying to take more food out and ran - it was evident by its bony small body that food is needed. Hope it comes again.
