Thankful for dental revelation about one of The Old Turners A Crocus Creek grandmother of many generations ago Linda Waggener writes: Dear Mike, I always appreciate your discoveries and feel so grateful that you share what you find of our unique heritage. This letter, especially, warms my heart because the writer described having made teeth for one of my Crocus Creek Turner grandmothers of many generations ago. She probably in no way appreciated having that in print and may have lost her natural teeth due to years of clenching them at her husband, Joe, who by his writings to the same newspaper, appeared to be quite the vexatious male. Thanks, Mike! - Linda (Turner Leftwich Royce Marcum) WaggenerComments re article 60048 Mike Watson Dr JT Jones visiting pondering 2013-06-09 11:54:07 | Comments | Printable version

Carol Perkins: Step right up - the county fair The lure of the carnival barkers at the old county fairs often meant country boys with pretty girls at their side lost income from backbreaking work in the fields, some embarrassing moments for boys who sneaked in the girlie shows only to see their fathers across from them, while mothers were watching the little ones on the kiddy rides and overseeing tiny tots covering their faces with grainy messes from corn dogs The next earlier Carol Perkins column: Carol Perkins: An after the fact commentary on Memorial day By Carol Perkins "Step right up and win that little girl a teddy bear!" The barker at the booth, where knocking down three bowling pins calls can win the life size pink teddy bear hanging to the side of the tent, calls out to a young man escorting a young girl down the midway of the county fair. He looks at the guy and wonders what to do. The young man runs the risk of making himself look like a real wimp if the pins don't fall (which they seldom did). Then, again, on the off chance he should win that teddy bear, he might seal the deal and have himself a steady girl.

This week's column is many happy tales. Click on headline for complete story with photo(s). Next previous Happy Tail: Happy Tails: Planting a garden. To find a dog to adopt, check CM ANIMALS, remember to do it often, turnover is high, and you may miss out on the pet of a lifetime. By Peg Schaeffer President and Founder, Sugarfoot Farms Rescue This week I adopted out more dogs than I have ever done in one week's time since I've been doing rescue. On Saturday, Hobo, a senior Boxer, was returned to his original owner, after a mix up. Although Hobo had been with us since April 13 he spotted his owner at the fence all the way from the house. I thought his butt would fall off he wiggled his stub tail so hard. He dragged me to the gate and no leash was needed as he followed his owner to the truck.
