Hi to Adair County:

Just an old Coburg boy wondering if the name Heskamp rings any bells these days . . . I doubt it, but would love to hear from anyone on the subject. . . somehow I'm still kicking at 87.

Thanks,

Mr. Heskamp: Thanks. So good to hear from you. Don't see any prospects of the name not continuing to be highly honored far into the future. We, too, would like to hear from anyone who has memories of both the family and old Coburg. Today's Coburg, by the way, is really growing because of its strategic location as the capital of the tri-counties, T-A-G, Taylor-Adair-Green County area. - EW

Sheila Blair responds to Jr. Stotts post
Mr. Stotts, I am definitely not an attorney, nor do I desire to be one. The County Board of Elections has been advised not to give a public statement on this matter since it is still in litigation, which I believe is normal. Having worked in the clerks office for 28 years, and still working some part-time, I am simply trying to answer some of the citizens questions. It is not my intent to offend anyone, but to hopefully help anyone concerned to better understand the election process. Sincerely, Sheila Blair

The Whitehurst Diaries: As Cats Do. Boxes and hiding places

'Cats have a way of fitting into unlikely containers: a shoebox, a shipping carton that is much too small. They have an ability to soften the edges, tuck in their paws, fold the tail tidily, creating the illusion that the space was custom made for the inhabitant.' - SHARON WHITEHURST

By Sharon Whitehurst

Ms. Coomer's suggestion that shelter cats would appreciate sturdy boxes as retreats prompted me to look though my photos of our cats.

I can't recall a time when we didn't share our home with an assortment of feline companions. Over the years the numbers have varied--usually we are housing and feeding more of the creatures than makes sense to anyone but a dedicated cat lover.
