Letter: Smoke in the puffball photo Jessica writes: I just have one question. What's up with the creepy smoke/vapor in the pic? --JessicaWell Jessica, look closely at the blackened Soft Maple leaf, in the attached photo, laying on a carpet of green moss on top of the stump. Just below that leaf is a Puffball with a dented top and a hole in the side. The dent was caused by whacking it with my walking stick and the hole is from where the Smoke of spores puffed forth when I whacked it. That Puffball Smoke is actually multiple millions of spores which will make more Puffballs if they land on rotting wood. In the attached photo, you can see the Smoke of spores starting from beneath my walking stick as I struck the Puffball. --Billy Joe Comments re photo 86062 Kentucky Color Visiting Thanksgivings Past 2019-11-29 19:31:51 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

Crazy path brings Thanksgiving dinner to far Eastern KY By Linda Blackford, Lexington Herald-Leader Last Saturday, the main road through Blaine Ky. was choked with parked cars, which is an event in itself because Blaine hardly ever gets crowded any more. The owners of those cars formed a long line outside the God's Hands Ministries, waiting to collect a turkey dinner. Inside, Rachel Wheeler, who organized the giveaway, prayed with volunteers and Jack Van Vlack, who raised money for 160 boxes of dressing, mashed potatoes, rolls, pie and iced tea: "I'm so thankful for each and every one of you," Wheeler said amid tears. "Now when you put the boxes on the wagon, don't squish the pie and don't squish the bread." Yes, this is a Thanksgiving story.

Letter: Amazing number of schools Doug McCammish writes: Wow! By quick count, that's 150 one- or two-room schools! That's a whole town in itself! Would it be possible someday to plot those on a timeline to see how many existed in any one decade or 20-year span? Was there consolidation? On the same timeline, could it be shown that school C was the consolidation of schools A & B? Huge project!
