At 80, Gordon Crump proves you can live the life you want "Hermit of Clay Ridge" bought 13-acre farm sight-unseen 10 years ago It's Gordon Crump's birthday today. This story was written earlier this year, back in the summer. Gordon Crump can be found most weekday mornings at Clay Ridge Grocery & Deli. Recently, I found him asleep at the table. He was alright. Just sleeping. ""I didn't get any sleep last night," he said, "the bears kept me up all night." Turns out, he said, a mama black bear and her cub were prowling around rain barrel. He's seen them in the daytime, he said, and meant to scare them off when they rattled around his little wilderness house. By Ed Waggener Gordon Crump leads a life most people only dream about. Mr. Crump, who claims to be a hermit, now lives in a place very much what he has always idealized Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2006-10-17 06:19:42 | Comments | Printable version

Tom Chaney: October 17, 2006: John Ed Pearce By Tom Chaney bookstore@scrtc.com OF WRITERS AND THEIR BOOKS: JOHN ED PEARCE (1919-2006) As my world began to come into focus in the late 1940's and early 50's, the Louisville Courier-Journal came to be a major point in that focus. We could not begin our day at the corner of Main and Yancey without it. At first, it was delivered to the door, but soon delivery stopped for some reason. The paper was put in boxes at the Midway Caf. We had to pick it up. My early morning job was to get on my bike and pedal down the street to pick up our paper and those of a few neighbors. I don't ever remember not reading the Courier-Journal.
