Every year at the county fair there are a ton of entries in the exhibit hall, from crafts, to produce, to photography, paintings, and drawings.

There is a whole section of the exhibit hall dedicated to 4-H with tons of great entries. Judges from the surrounding area come to review the entries and give ribbons based on quality, as well as a grand champion for each class.

Who says you can’t go home?

I wouldn’t call myself a country music fan. I wouldn’t really say I’m a huge music fan in general. Growing up, my parents would more often than not just drive in silence or have conversation, rather than listen to the radio or CDs.

My grandfather, though, listened to music constantly in the car. When he would pick me up from school, which he did, more than anyone else, we would listen to country music all the way home.

Henry County is home to many...

In my career as a reporter/editor, I tend to learn things organically, by visiting with people in the community and hearing their points of view.

After all, no person can know everything. Going to the sources, to the experts, and getting to benefit from the knowledge they’ve accumulated over the years can open a person’s eyes in short order.
