Warm and pleasant greetings to all. We hope you are having a good week and you and your family are doing well.
There have been some challenging times these past several days, and weeks. It was Wednesday, Feb. 4, around 2:45 p.m. when we first saw the lights again. At this writing, several residents are waiting for Wi-Fi and/or TV reconnections. The lights being restored sent shouts of gladness, yet we are remembering and continuing in prayer for others who are yet experiencing the ice storm devastation.

I hope everyone has power back on. I know there are still some with specific issues that are waiting, but, hopefully, most are now enjoying all those creature comforts we sometimes take for granted until they are gone. My mom, Margaret Ross, and sister Carol had gotten so used to not having power that they didn’t even realize the power was back on for almost an hour! I can’t tell you the number of people who have said they continued to flip switches (especially in the bathroom) even when they had a flashlight in hand. We are creatures of habit, aren’t we?

Whether you are a photographer, a hunter or simply enjoy watching wildlife on a sunny afternoon, anyone who has spent time overlooking a food plot understands their value and appeal.
Wildlife plantings offer a unique opportunity to observe animals up close while supporting their nutritional and habitat needs.

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.

Before near-record crop yields were harvested by U.S. farmers, the seed, plants and soil had received major scientific attention in laboratories located on an obscure country road in rural Washington County, Mississippi.
In the hamlet of Stoneville, one mile west of the town of Leland, research by federal and state agricultural scientists has provided the spark for successful farming and a leading-edge mechanization of harvest across the U.S. farm belt, and in nations that are major competition for our farm commodities on the world market.

Young Americans for Liberty at Ole Miss advocates for one core principle above all others: individualism.
While many think of civil liberties in terms of speech, privacy or economic autonomy, one of the most overlooked liberties is the freedom of parents to direct their children’s education.

It didn’t take long for the bickering to start after the Senate Education Committee on Feb. 3 unanimously killed House Bill 2, the wide-ranging school choice proposal, with only two minutes of consideration.
Gov. Tate Reeves said he’s never been more disappointed in elected officials than he was in Lt. Gov. Delbert Hosemann and Sen. Dennis DeBar, R-Leakesville, the chairman of the Education Committee. The governor claimed the two worked closely with Democrats to kill the school choice bill, and accused them of hiding their efforts from conservatives.
