Mary Keltner sends link on new tick-borne disease Mary Keltner sends a link to a story: Once Rare, Infection by Tick Bites Spreads/Another infection caused by tick bites is spreading in the Lower Hudson Valley, and in other parts of the Northeast and the Upper Midwest by Laurie Tarkan on the New York Times website. Many can remember when tick borne lyme disease was only a northeastern disease, but today it is all too common in Kentucky. Ticks are some of the most dangerous creature in the outdoors. They are controlled to some extent, by rattlesnakes and other animals which prey on rodents and control rodent populations. Rodents are favored tick hosts. Comments and ideas on enjoying the outdoors and being safe from ticks are welcome. -CM 2011-06-22 07:39:58 | Comments | Printable version

Tommy Bailey likes 2nd Walking Tree photo Comments re photo 40880 Walking Tree headed for Coffey Hole or Big Race Tommy Bailey writes: Ed, I like the angle of this photo better than the one I took. It really looks like it's trying to take a step. --Tommy BaileyWouldn't say I'd give the second photographer an edge. Being First, as you were, usually trumps everything else, so the Tommy Bailey picture on CM will always hold that distinction. There is still one more needed. From your photo it looks like the photographer ought be no more than 30 inches tall. It would be to have the trees' legs framing the White Oak Church. Folks who have visited Widland say it is one of the most peaceful, most pleasant place in Adair County. It will surely be a favorite stop for the busloads of Canadian tourists coming our way, in the bye and bye. -CM 2011-06-22 05:29:15 | Comments | Printable version
