Hunting the Elusive Morel By Donna Rieder Dry Land Fish, Land Fish, Woodfish, Fisharooms, Wood Chicks, Hickory Chickens, Forest Taters, Molly Mushers...whatever you want to call them, Morel mushrooms are the king of all mushroomsand are hunted by mushroom lovers everywhere. True morels are highly prized edible fungi from the genus Morchella, distinguished by their honeycomb-like, pitted caps that are completely hollow inside, with the cap and stem joined at the base. Mushrooms need adequate moisture since they have a water content of 90%, so the best time to forage for morels is mid-Spring, often just a few days after it rains, and when ground temperatures reach 53F. The best places to find them are in moist, forested areas, particularly around dead or dying trees like elm, ash, poplar, and old apple orchards. Creek banks, river bottoms, and ravines provide the moisture they thrive in.

Students present work, find inspiration at English Conference By Duane Bonifer One of the themes at this year's Sigma Tau Delta convention was resilience. For the Lindsey Wilson University students who attended the annual meeting of the international English honor society, other themes might have been impressive, extraordinary and amazing. A total of 19 students attended the four-day conference, which was held March 29-April 1 in New Orleans and funded by a university grant. Seven LWU students presented their research, and the other 12 attended as observers, making the Lindsey Wilson delegation one of the largest to attend the conference, which attracted more than 1,000 undergraduate students from U.S. colleges and universities. "We always tell our students how extraordinary their work is, but for them to hear from people at other schools how amazing their work is was really great," said English professor Rachel Carr '13, who was one of three Lindsey Wilson faculty to accompany the students. "Faculty sponsors at other schools were always coming up to us and saying, 'This work is incredible.'"

Funding approved for two road projects in Columbia From Trey Stephens City of Columbia | Assistant to the Mayor On Thursday, April 2, 2026, the City of Columbia is extremely pleased to announce that the Kentucky State Legislature has approved plans for two major transportation infrastructure improvements in Columbia. The first is on Rice Drive and Watson Street, where a project will be undertaken to address major drainage issues and prevent the area from facing significant flooding. The project will be a massive step towards ensuring that residents in that area of Columbia are safe in their homes and not cut off from emergency services during flooding events. This project was placed under the Kentucky State road plan for fiscal year 2027. The second project is Burkesville Loop which has been approved for funding under the Local Assistance Road Program (LARP). This project will return the road to suitable condition for Columbia's citizens and keep the residents of that road safe. Mayor Hoots says she and all of Columbia's 5,000 citizens owe a massive debt of gratitude to Representative Amy Neighbors and Senate Majority Leader Max Wise for their tireless work on these two projects, both of which will have a profound effect on our community.

When you are alone and have a heart attack, what are you gonna do? A really good post that can't be shared often enough follows.

Writers' Day 2026: the Ford's Valley Incident "A Brief Recount of the Ford's Valley Incident (Writers' Day Version)" Written and Read by Katelynn M. Molesky If you've never heard of Ford's Valley, then that's nothing unusual - they say even the state itself has forgotten about it, seeing as it often finds itself left off the census entirely. Not that it would make that much of a difference anyway... If you ask anyone that's been there, they'd say the entire place is dead, practically a ghost town by now. After all, who'd want to stay in a place where nothing ever happens - and definitely who could afford to when there was nowhere to work? Besides, who'd want to linger too long when there's potentially still a killer on the loose? Or so the common legend says... I can say outright that this is a long, complicated tale and I've only got so little time to tell it - so I guess I'll skip over all the meat and present you with just the skeleton for now.
