Wedding reception held during Bluegrass Night
Hemphill
      Sorry I didn’t get a column in last week’s paper. We had a great turnout for our Bluegrass Night Jan. 22. Hiram and Ruby Collins had sort of a wedding reception during Bluegrass Night. There were a lot of their friends there, and a lot of people brought food. There was a large wedding cake served. I want to say good luck to the happy couple.

Cold weather is making the kids a little stir crazy
Blair Branch
      Hello all. Our heat wave was short lived, wasn’t it? I sure miss it, but I enjoyed it while it lasted. Right now, when I look out the window, all I see is snow, snow, and more snow. Thankfully we have still electricity and running water this go-round, and it is my window I am looking out.

Bill Gibson always said what he thought
Blackey
      My sympathy to the family of Bill Gibson of Isom. He died Jan. 22 at Hazard Hospital. Bill turned 106 on Jan. 18. He lived a long life and he was very outspoken. If he had something to say to you or about you, he would just come right out and say it. He will be missed.

Jeremiah
      I didn’t think we were really going to get all the snow that was forecast for our area, but it really did get here and the cold temperatures are keeping the snow on the ground. We had about eight inches of snow at our house and some had even more.
