Click on headline for Spring Scenes from The Holler

There's a hint of turmoil in Adair County since the early morning post of B.J. Fudge's paper on Traditional Beaver Lodge in a non-Traditional setting, and it's bad: Beaver Envy.

Shamarie Claiborne acknowledges no knowledge of any of the entertaining engineers in The Holler:
I see beavers are a top priority today... that is one thing The Holler doesn't have.... Beavers -- SC
Some would call her lucky. A pair of healthy beavers could turn The Holler into a Dale Hollow sized Lake of the Ozark, just as an elite Corps of Beaver Engineers once threatened Ray Williams Hill by damming up Neatsville. Anyway, at least she keeps her sense of humor, and sends photos of a more serene nature. -CM

Inquisitive scientist that she is, she searched and found that it is Squawroot, according to entry in Wikipedia, or, as it is called in The Holler, a 'Corn Cob' plant. Though right cute, the damned thing is parasite on Oak and Beech roots. To quote Shamarie, 'This proves that Indians once lived lived in The Holler.' - -Faith Harper.
