OpinionFielder’s Choice Remember storm victims Our concerns over the weekend focused on fellow Mississippians in the path of destructive tornado activity. We had watched the weather throughout the week – anticipating the storms. Marshall County managed to escape the worst of the turbulent weather. Close to Nowhere From Paducah to Houston Some might say there’s such a thing as “quilt overload.” Don’t believe them! Jane and I dragged in Sunday afternoon from our annual trip to the quilt capitol of the world, Paducah, Ken. We were broke, exhausted, bedraggled and already planning our next few quilt trips. The Preacher’s Corner The same key did not fit all the locks! The workers are still over at our church, and yesterday one of them was accidentally locked in the building. That being the case, I told him you are really not part of our congregation unless you’ve been locked in the church at some time or another — and I am not referring to the “captive audience” that has to endure the sermon on Sunday morning. The doors are fully unlocked then, and people can (and do) come and go as they please.
