Carol Perkins: Hamming It Up

Previous Column: Too Much Relaxation

By Carol Perkins

If there is air in a drawer, I will fill the space. When overflowing, I pull the drawer out, sit in a chair, and "organize" for the hundredth time. I do the same thing with closets and shelves and the freezer compartment of the refrigerator, which brings me to this account.

On garbage day, I roam the house looking for items to toss besides the usual garbage. This week I tackled the outside refrigerator/freezer. There were items too old to cook and too raccoon tempting to toss in the "fence row." Instead, I filled about half of a garbage bag with Guy declaring he couldn't lift it when I finished.

As I was tossing the outdated fish pieces and freezer-burned vegetables long forgotten, an avalanche of frozen food, one coming faster than the other, headed downward just as I bent over to put something in the bag. I heard the rumble before I saw half of a frozen ham headed my way.

Forget 800 numbers, the first call for help can be local

By Linda Waggener

If you've been injured by someone else's actions, or discounted by social security or worker's comp, let your first call be a local one, to Helm Shearer Wilson (HSW) Attorneys in Jamestown - one of the only local personal injury firms in the Lake Cumberland area.

While young attorneys often go into big city practices, Derrick G. Helm knew he would base his practice here before he ever left for college. As a student at Russell County High School he followed and worked with judicial legal servants like the Judge Jack Miller and Hon. Robert Bertram, longtime Russell county lawyers and leaders. It was here he remembers starting to feel a passion for helping local families.

Letter: I know exactly where that photo was taken

Phillip Coffey writes:
I know exactly where you took the photo on Mell Ridge. The fence in the foreground is on property once owned by my Brother who had it installed. The forest in the background is part of "Buck Willis Ridge" property which is in Adair and Metcalfe Counties.

From near where you were taking the photo, I'd push the clutch, move the standard gear shift on my '67 Ford Fairlane column into neutral, turn off the engine to save gas, and begin coasting down the long hill. After crossing Adams Creek and about a mile of coasting, my trustworthy Ford would begin loosing momentum ascending "Dughill" then I'd turn my key to spark the engine, push the clutch in, push the gear upward to second, let out the clutch and proceed up another long hill.

I have taken a lot of photos looking toward Bridgeport, and to the left toward ancestral home Keltner, KY. Actually from that point, photographs can be taken of my Moss, Keltner, Rogers, Coomer and Coffey ancestral homesteads back to the 1700s (Moss family).
