KY Afield Outdoors: A look ahead

By Kevin Kelly

Frankfort, KY - The end of the year is a time for reflecting on the past 12 months and envisioning the possibilities for the new year.

The directors of the Fisheries, Wildlife and Wildlife Diversity divisions at the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources recently previewed what's ahead in 2017.

From firming-up long-range plans for the restoration of ruffed grouse in Kentucky and management of the state's black bear population to expanding the popular Fishing in Neighborhoods (FINs) program and releasing thousands of rare mussels into the wild, a common theme stretches across the divisions. Conserving fish and wildlife habitats and populations and expanding opportunities for hunters, anglers and others are top priorities.

Carol Perkins: My wedding day, 25 Dec 1967

'For years, friends and family would retell the day of our wedding. Worst snow storm in years! I now smile when I think of that couple who barely knew each other following the snowplow out of town. It isn't how big or small, how perfect or imperfect a wedding day is; it is how life progresses after the I do.'
The next earlier column: Carol Perkins: Only in a small town - like Edmonton
By Carol Perkins

Three o'clock and the snow had not stopped. Just the night before, the stars had not indicated bad weather, and the weatherman missed the call. Christmas Eve, 1967, brought one of the biggest snows of the year and created nothing but havoc for my wedding day.
