Reed said he was pleased that the Governor had commended him for the campus' easy navigation. "Some of the first words spoken to me by Governor Beshear today were, 'I really appreciate those large numbers on your buildings.' Supt. Reed said, "I told him we had spent considerable time and effort on the project and that we receive positive comments nearly every day. The governor’s comments mirrored the many positive comments we have received from community members and visitors alike. There is no reason to park at the wrong building on this campus!"

Max, who doesn't like cats - available for adoption 2015-03-20 - Glens Fork, KY - Photo by Mark Hale. Some dogs just don't like cats. As it turns out our dog Max, (made famous as the Christmas dog on CM just before Christmas) is one of those dogs. We were so happy to adopt Max and he is a great friend. Unfortunately we need to let Max have a new home away from cats. He would probably do best as a lone pet. Max stays home and is always here to welcome us and anyone else when they come up the drive. We are looking for a good home for Max. He has been neutered and has all his recommended shots. Anyone that is interested in a fine young dog for an active family, Max is that dog. It is a must that cats are not in the equation as he has a tendency to terrorize them. We are now short one cat and pretty sure Max is the reason. We like our cats and would like to keep them. Please help save our cats and give Max a loving home. Interested persons may call or text me at 270 634 2146.
