  • Emerald ash borer continues to spread in Kentucky

    Most people are aware of the danger to ash trees from the emerald ash borer throughout North America.

    Accord-ing to a sobering USDA Forest Service publication, “Emerald ash borer is the most destructive forest insect introduced into North America in recent history. Our present ability to detect, contain, eradicate, or manage EAB infestations is limited ... The eventual loss of the vast majority of ash trees in North America should be anticipated.”

  • Gift a gift made by your hands to your valentine

    Valentine’s Day is less than a week away, are you ready? That is the day I like to make something special for my sweetie. 

    He has always done sweet things for me, but I must admit, I would discover what he was going to do before he got the chance to present it.

    In our first years of marriage, money was tight, so we gave each other small things. I would make a special dinner with a luscious dessert, and one time he gave me nail polish. It was so sweet, but unfortunately, I guessed it before he had the chance to surprise me.
