I have always loved to read and study about the Amish peoples. If I were not a true Southern Baptist, I believe I would convert to the Old Order Amish religion. I so appreciate their peaceful calm tranquility in the ways of working and doing for others. I believe we could all learn from these serene people. The work ethic is so ingrained into them that they rise in the early morning hours to begin their work days and end with the dark to stop the laboring. The most worthy attribute of the Amish is their desire to care for their own.

Do you remember?
Uncle Bob used to say that when he could not remember someone's name that Sport, his bird dog, drew a blank also. He did let Sport ride in the cab of his F-100, and often his faithful companion would sit behind the wheel. Eventually Sport learned to put his paws on the steering wheel, and from a distance it would appear that he was driving. Uncle Bob enjoyed the wide-eyed gazes from those passing by on the dusty gravel road in front of his house, which was several hundred feet away.

12 “I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. 13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. 14 He will glorify me because it is from me that he will receive what he will make known to you.
— John !6:12-14 (NIV)

, Officials at the scene of a gravel truck accident Thursday, Feb. 19, 2026, on Highway 35 south of Paynes examine the wreckage.
A truck hauling gravel overturned Thursday afternoon after coming out of a deep curve on Mississippi Highway 35 just south of Paynes.
The accident was reported in a 911 call shortly before 2:30.
The truck landed on its right side, crosswise, blocking both northbound and southbound lanes of traffic.
A thin strip of pavement on the east side of the trailer allowed vehicles to gingerly navigate around the wreckage using a portion of sloping shoulder.

The Mississippi Outdoor Stewardship Trust Fund recently awarded a grant of $945,084 to restore and enhance the Walker Tract Waterfowl Sanctuary within the Tallahatchie National Wildlife Refuge (TNWR).
For the last three years, the 550-acre Walker Tract, which is a closed portion of the Refuge that is utilized as a waterfowl sanctuary, has not held water due to the lack of funding needed for infrastructure repairs. This has resulted in limited waterfowl use.
