Whitehurst Journal: Photo folders on PC serve as diaries As an introduction to this essay, Sharon Whitehurst remembers that Monday was a red letter day for the Whitehursts in their new 'Promised Land' - Gradyville, KY: "March 21 marked the first year anniversary of our arrival in Kentucky from Wyoming--a harrowing three day run of snow, sleet and icy roads. Crossing the KY border and driving past green fields swathed in daffodils, finally lumbering in convoy into the dooryard of the Gradyville farm, we felt as though we had achieved the Promised Land," she wrote, and sends this essay about what she's finding this year: An earlier spring than 2010. Click on headline for story plus photo(s) By Sharon Whitehurst I grew up in a family for whom seasons and weather were vital matters of awareness and conversation. This is hardly unusual since country people have always been keen observers of weather as it affects seedtime, cultivation and harvest. As the season goes, wet, dry, cold or hot, so goes a local and personal economy for the dairyman or orchardist, or those who garden with the intent to "put up" a goodly supply of produce for the winter.

In fact, those gentleman already had secured the hall above W.H.

Rev. Joey N. Welsh: Solid Statues, Solid Lives - Part II Another Angle, the occasional musings of a Kentucky pastor. Solid Statues, Solid Lives - Part II First published 2 April 2006, in the Hart County News-Herald The next earlier Another Angle Solid Statues, Solid Lives - Part I By The Rev. Joey N. Welsh Last week, at the close of Women's History Month, I wrote of two of the women who are memorialized at the U. S. Capitol in Statuary Hall, Esther Hobart Morris (Wyoming) and Dr. Florence Rena Sabin (Colorado). Over the years the 50 states have designated 101 people for remembrance with their statues. (The extra statue is from Kansas, which originally named as one of its choices the pioneer lawyer and governor George Washington Glick. In 2003 Kansas decided to replace the Glick statue with one portraying native son Dwight Eisenhower. Glick, like Elvis, has left the building; his marble likeness is back in Topeka.)< Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2011-03-27 09:29:20 | Comments | Printable version
Carol Perkins: The Needle It was a freak accident: Half a needle lodged in her toe. Surgery in a critical area - a wrong cut could have left her crippled - was required, made all the more difficult because the surgeon was given the wrong X-ray. Read what could only happen to Carol Perkins, below. The next earlier Carol Perkins column: Carol Perkins: Public Restrooms By Carol Perkins Jon was only three days old when I was walking through the den and felt a sharp pain in my foot. I hobbled to the nearest chair, but could see only a pinhole where something had obviously penetrated, but I couldn't see a sign of what it might be. There was no splinter, so I obviously had stepped on something thin and straight. I feared what might be in my foot and didn't want to give voice to my suspicion.
