  • There is plenty to do this summer in Harrison County

    Is summer really on its way?
    For the sake of not jinxing the county back into another cold spell... maybe I won’t say it out loud, but I do believe that warm weather is in our near future.

  • Luck is overrated, but a charm is good to keep close

    I am a God fearing man so as far as luck is concerned, I don’t have much belief in it.
    Well, that is almost all true.
    I am a God fearing man and I don’t believe in luck for the most part.
    However, there is one area that I think a little luck comes into play and I have my own “lucky charm” to help increase my chances of success.
