The Joy of Drinking To read last week's essay, The Catalpa's White Week Click here By Tom Chaney bookstore@scrtc.com Last week I had a quite special trip. It fell my lot to deliver a Charlie Williams sheep dog from the wilds of Hart County to the wiles of suburban Columbus, Ohio. Bob and Candy Canzoneri are no strangers to Hart County or even to Williams sheep dogs. Master Blueberry is a replacement for his great uncle who recently died. In the past the Canzoneri made my kitchen a pit stop on their way to visit kin in Memphis and Mississippi.

Old Quilt from Columbia, KY, found in Lemont, IL To ColumbiaMagazine.com My brother in law found a quilt in Lemont Ill. that was made in Columbia, Ky. And I was wondering if anyone could give me any infomation on it. There is a stamp on the back of the quilt that said "Russell Creek" and under that is "Roller Mill & The Farmer MILLs" and under that is "Joe S. Knifley & T.E. Waggener of Columbia Ky."

Adair serviceman's Mom gets report from Afghanistan Adair serviceman with 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit endures 127 degree F. heat, sandstorms in southern Afghanistan. He's expected home in mid-October this year Reminder: Send mail from home to Adair Countians who are deployed to war zones in Iraq and Afghanistan. Write to Dan Kermeen and other Adair Servicemen in War Zones By Pam Kermeen Below is some information about the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit that LCpl Daniel Kermeen is with. He is currently at Camp Bastian in southern Afghanistan. It's 127 degrees during the day and maybe 70-80 degrees at night. They are living in tents with no air conditioning and get only two bottles of cold water per day; the rest is warm. Sweat and sand storms don't mix well, Dan tells me. Daniel is expected home in mid-October. We are so looking forward to that. In the meantime, I hope Adair Countians will continue to keep him in their prayers and will write to him and to all the other Adair County servicemen in Afghanistan and Iraq.
