Thanks, guys: A tribute to Adair Co. Fire Department 'You don't know how valuable they are until you really need them,'- LORENE MARTENS Click on headline for complete story plus photo By Lorene Martens We had a truck burn up at our house on Short Lane, on February 3, 2009, at around 2:30amCT.We were asleep when I heard a popping noise. My husband got up to look and said his truck was on fire. He ran outside in his pj's to spray water on the fire. Part of our hoses were frozen. I always try to keep them drained in case of fire in the winter time but I didn't get it done this time.

GBBC: Columbia holds lead in KY, but out of National Top 10 Everybody's help is urgently needed in the Great Backyard Bird Count. Sunday morning at 9:49amCT, Columbia, KY, holds onto a lead as the #1 Reporting Community in Kentucky, but has dropped out of the Top Ten Locations in the United States. The No. 10 spot, which leads Columbia by 10 reports, is a town in California, not nearly the equal of Columbia, KY, in any way we'd measure. We're hoping every reader will do at least one survey today. GBBC bird counts are easy, and fun, whether you are an trained ornithologist or a tyro. Just 1) Go outside and spend at least 15 minutes observing the birds and writing down your lists, 2) Go to the submit link below, and 3) Enter your checklist for each time you observe during the day.

Tom Chaney Feb. 15, 2009: #194, Hart Co. Poet A.A. Whitman Of Writers And Their Books: No. 194 Essay on A.A. Whitman, Hart County Poet. Last week's Tom Chaney essay: Theatre on Hard Times in Horse Cave a plea for patrons of Kentucky Repertory Theatre to help in time of financial distress By Tom Chaney bookstore@scrtc.com A. A. Whitman -- Hart County Poet I was reminded a few days ago that readers of this column will suffer their fourth anniversary of exquisite torture this week. I decided for the first column to write of A. A. Whitman during Black History Month. It is appropriate to repeat that column now in celebration of Whitman, of black history, and of Of Writers and Their Books. "I was born in the Green River Country in Hart County. Kentucky, May 30th, 1851. I was a slave until Emancipation. My parents left me and went to the Good Land when I was yet a boy. My chances for education have not been good. In that matter, however, I have done what I could."
