By Narda Tate I finished my blueberry harvest at the end of June this year, which is the normal time. By previous year's standards, it was a light harvest. Only 37 pounds. But there were several bushes that hardly produced anything, so I'm hoping they were just taking a sabbatical and will come back stronger next year. Even though I only harvested a smaller amount this year, it is still a gracious plenty for pancakes, muffins, cobblers and pies. The truth is, I am still trying to work my way through last year's berries before delving into the ones from this year. My part of the yard work is to use the hand mower around the blueberry patch and the individual bushes, using the grass clippers to get close to the trunks so that everything looks neat and nicely shorn. That is what I was doing this morning and as the grass catcher filled up, I was taking the clippings to make a ring around the base of each plant to kill out the grass and make my job easier - hopefully - in the long run.

Volleyball: Lady Indians season opener is Aug 17 By Kelly Wooley The Adair Progress The Adair County Lady Indians Volleyball program wrapped up its preseason this past weekend at the Mid-South Challenge in Bowling Green, and all three teams turned in impressive performances, combining to drop just one set throughout the entire challenge. The preseason scrimmage was structured differently than a traditional match, with each game played on a 45-minute time limit, giving the Lady Indians valuable court time and an opportunity to prepare for the upcoming regular season.>
