Now blooming

Osage Orange fruit - Hedgeapples - are hanging heavily on the trees now or they lay on the ground where they drop from the limbs - much like Walnuts do even though these are larger - waiting to be collected or stepped on. Hedgeapples made prized balls for my young children and their father who taught them to "plunk" them into creeks like small stones. They made a mighty wallop when they hit the water. - LW

Patient friend waiting

This fellow is not like many of the homeless dogs we run in effort to help adoptions. He already has a home and his satisfaction showed as he sat patiently in the vehicle while his human worked outside.

Kentucky Wired project continues to make news

Delivering high speed internet access all across the state is making a lot of news this season. KentuckyWired representative Donavon McClure spoke at the October meetings of both the Adair Chamber of Commerce and Fiscal Court. In the photo, Dick Fitzpatrick holds the handout passed around at the Chamber meeting showing the three rings of the state and the progress in each. The project began under former Gov. Steve Beshear with Congressman Hal Rogers in the SOAR initiative in eastern Kentucky. Work in Adair County is supposed to be completed by year end and the whole state by this time in 2020. DuoBroadband already provides access in most of the County and Kentucky Wired will add to any areas not already covered.
