Gas Price Drumbeat: Happy to be dining in Lebanon tonight To ColumbiaMagazine.com: I just looked on Kentucky Gas Prices for Lebanon, KY. Prices range from 1.61 to 1.66. In Columbia, the lowest price, same company, was $1.84. It's nice that we're going there for dinner tonight. s/Name on file with CM Your implication is clear. And we understand why you'd plan to buy a tank of gas in Marion County. For us, we just going to drive a lot, lot less and continue to buy from the local gas stations.

Enjoy Tribute to a Strong Woman: A chance reunion with an old friend could have turned to commiseration, but her petite, positive friend--who handles everything life throws at her with poise and grace--changed an outlook By Sheila Wood Today I had the pleasure of running into an old friend Mitzi Bault. We had not seen one another in a long time and it was good to catch up with her. As we talked all I could think of was just how beaming she was.
