The recent cold weather made me melancholy as I sat and pondered yesteryears. It made me remember the days of cold winter that I spent with my grandmother and grandaddy in Montgomery County.
You hear people talk about living in the country; well, this was living in the country. The property sat right on the Montgomery County and Attala County line. The old barn, housing the old Guernsey milk cow, sat straddle the two county lines.

What a week!
You may be still waiting for electricity or water; I hope both are restored soon and you can begin to get things back to normal.
We had water the entire time of the ice storm, but lost electricity. Thank goodness for our fireplace and the wood that Gary and Andrew had piled up. Thank goodness for help getting it split.

Young Americans for Liberty at Ole Miss advocates for one core principle above all others: individualism.

Coral Depot has grown through word of mouth, social media, and the oldest marketing strategy of all: people telling people.
Some places in Mississippi rest on more than land—they rest on layers: memory, people, purpose. When you visit, you feel it. These places quiet you, draw you in, and remind you that this land holds a legacy.
Arriving at Coral Depot, you sense it—a feeling as distinctive as the beautiful longleaf pines that surround Sumrall.

One of the strange things about mass media is that you deal in masses of people. Every week we have multiple obituaries in our newspapers. Each of the deceased leaves behind a wake in the water of humanity, touching other lives in innumerable and profound ways.
Our God creates so many people and yet each person is unique and precious. It is mind boggling, but that’s simply the way it is. Our job at the newspaper is to chronicle their passing. We cannot begin to fully express the magnitude of their journey.
