Catie Bilz Photo Project Catie Bilz writes: On January 1, 2010 I will begin a Project 365. I am not sure about whether or not our readers would know about this, so for their sake, I will describe it a little. Project 365 is a photography project in which the photographer commits to taking a one picture a day for the entire year. The content can either have a theme, such as flowers, or merely catalog a day in the life, which is the approach I will be taking. This project will document my travels, including a trip to NYC in January, to Mardi Gras in February, and to Germany in July.

Kentucky Afield Outdoors: More people trapping now From KY Fish & Wildlife FRANKFORT, KY - Thousands of Kentuckians once trapped raccoons, beavers, mink, foxes and other furbearing animals. Trapping provided our ancestors with clothing, food and a source of income. But trapping fell by the wayside as people began moving from the farm to the city. Fur prices declined in the 1980s and thousands of people quit trapping. Kentucky trapping license sales plummeted from more than 7,000 in 1980 to about 600 in 1999. Now, trapping is making a comeback. Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2010-01-02 11:24:59 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Sports
