Hi Bill:
Here is my annual tribute to the Tiger Lily, quite a common blossom in Glasgow gardens. The inset is one of the anthers from the blossom shown, covered with bright red-orange pollen. Those who grow them know that this powder stains shirts, pants, fingers and skin bright orange - yes, I know it to be a fact

Bill,
This picture was taken at Wayne and LaVerta Garrett's farm. These goats are twin pigmy goats. They are about 2 weeks old. Carmen is having great fun playing with them!

The WebMeister got this photo Wednesday morning. That's the EPB's Chappy Rice in the bucket truck. He's working on one of the EPB's satellite receivers, repairing lightning damage suffered (yes, suffered) overnight in the thunderstorm.

Next of Kin in more ways than one!

While enjoying the Barren County Fair this past weekend in Temple Hill, Shana Langley and Allison Stokes couldn't resist the opportunity for this picture. The sisters are enjoying their time together before Allison leaves for graduate school this fall. Although the photo turned out great, the results for "Next of Kin" in the truck/tractor pull are unknown. (you get some idea of the size of the crowd in the inset photo)

My name is Jamie Marion and this is a picture of my uncle, Dr. Todd Marion, and my dad, Jim Marion, with Clint Eastwood. They, along with Bill Murrey and Dr. Mike Shadowen, went to Pebble Beach to play golf in July and went to Mission Ranch for dinner one night. There sat Clint and my dad couldn't stand it anymore. He had to have his picture. He yelled, "Clint, is your birthday May 31st?" Dad said Clint looked at him as if he were a stalker and replied, "Yes, why?" My dad told him that he and my mom, Debbie Marion, were in San Francisco a few years ago and saw him at his restaurant, but didn't want to bother him. He went on to tell Clint that my mom found out afterwards that she and Clint had the same birthday (of course, not the same year). Dad told Clint he had to have his picture this time!

Thought the community would like to see the new teachers for Glasgow Independent. This picture was taken at a special Orientation Day for new teachers. We are very proud to have such high quality people join our staff.

Football season is here again. Wednesday night the Glasgow Scotties had a great scrimmage against Warren Central. The Scotties were quite impressive for this early part of the season. I can't identify the players because the new programs are not available. Can't wait for the start of this season.

Ask these Red Cross (Elementary School) first graders what they did on their first day of school and they'll tell you they ate a school bus. If questioned further, they might admit it was made of graham cracker, yellow frosting and Oreo wheels. YUM!

Thought everyone might enjoy this picture I took after a rain in the Temple Hill area.

I have attached some photos from our class reunion. The dinner and dance was held on August 3 at University Plaza in Bowling Green. The picnic was held at Gorin Park on August 4. Classmates from BCHS 1992 class gathered for a photo before the reunion began on August 3 at University Plaza. After dinner, GEAR performed. Below is Wade England. I'm sure he will enjoy this picture (inset photo). The weather was quite hot for our picnic at Gorin Park on the 4th but some found some water balloons to help cool off. We have many pictures from both days and are setting up a Website so everyone can see them.

Thanks,

This is a scene from a recent community health education event, "Preparing for the Falls of Autumn." The program served as the first in a new series of planned quarterly orthopedic sessions scheduled at The T.J. Samson Educational Resource Center. Dr. Cory Ryan (from T.J. Samson's Family Practice Center), Dr. Matt Rose and Dr. Barrett Lessenberry are shown as they review the many issues involved with causes, various injuries, treatment and prevention of falls. The next event ("My Aching Back") is scheduled for November 12. Dr. Rose recently joined the practice of Dr.'s Lessenberry and N. Reddy and is new to the Medical Staff at T.J. Samson Community Hospital.

Bill,

School has just started and fall must be in the air. The soccer team at GHS sponsored an alumni soccer game that was played last night. It was great seeing the young alumni and the not so young charge up and down the field. Somehow as the game went along, the field got bigger and bigger for some of the players. I'd say from the players' reactions, a good time and a lot of physical exertion was had by all. In this photo you'll find Deepa Reddy and James Ralph Heltsley battling for the ball. They were some of the youngest alumni playing. There were some that sported a fair amount of gray hair.

More photos of spectators and other players can be seen on my site at www.wildernessstudio-ky.com. Thanks.

Bill,
Football friday nights in Glasgow continued this week with the cross town rivals playing their annual football game. This game was played at GHS before a very large crowd of students and fans. It was a very hard hitting game but the Scotties prevailed. The final score was 31-0 favoring Glasgow. In the attached photos, Tristan Huffman breaks a long run and the swarming Scotties hold a Trojan runner to a few yards. More of these action photos can be seen on my Website at www.wildernessstudio-ky.com (just click on "purchase" and go to the event).

I took these Thursday evening from our front yard on Graham Rd. Just beautiful. The sunset seemed to last forever. Sorry I've sent so many but I couldn't choose just one!

The weekend of September 6 was a very busy one in Glasgow with the Global Fest downtown and the sporting events at Glasgow High School. Football Friday night against Station Camp, Tennessee, soccer matches Saturday featuring the boys and girls against University Heights Academy and a girls soccer game against the Briar Jumpers of Somerset. Most generally the coaches were very pleased with the efforts given against the team's opposition. The attached photos are representative of all the sporting events at Glasgow High School.

This picture was taken on September 6th at Twin Pines Recording Studio in Lebanon, Tennessee. In the photo are legendary Charlie Daniels and myself. He took this day off the road to spend the day in the studio laying down tracks for his song "Little Folks," which will be part of a compilation album whose proceeds will benefit a children's hospital. At Belmont University, my Recording Technology class requires that we observe 4 recording sessions throughout the semester. We have studios on campus to utilize for these observations, but you can imagine why I took advantage of this opportunity to spend some time in Charlie's own studio with him! it was truly a memorable experience! Now, if only all assignments were this interesting!

Evan and I recently completed an adventure to the West Caribbean and I thought I would send a couple of photos showing young Master Evan enjoying the Mexican/Spanish culture when we returned to the ship from Cozumel, Mexico, for a Spanish Fiesta.

Hey Bill, I thought you might find the attached picture interesting. As you know, the steeple on the South Green Street Church of Christ was struck by lightning this summer (take a look at the photo that Follis Crow sent us here). It caused quite a bit of damage to the steeple as you can see, and quite a bit of damage to anything that was plugged in to an outlet.

They took the steeple down today and are scheduled to replace it with a new one tomorrow.

Bill, here are (L-R): Lewis Stockton, Bobby Elliott, author Walt Harrington, Carl Martin, and Alex Elliott at the South Central Kentucky Cultural Center Thursday night (Sept. 19). Stockton, Elliott, Martin and Elliott are the subjects of author Walt Harrington's new book, "The Everlasting Stream: A True Story of Rabbits, Guns, Friendship and Family." Mr. Harrington read from his book to a large crowd of family and friends of the four gentlemen. The book is available here in Glasgow at Ivy Books and Gifts.

Bill -- I was out with my camera early on Friday and found this little fungus in the "palm" of an oak leaf. The recent rains have brought up many different colors and shapes of fungus in the park -- and in my yard!

These beautiful fall colors can be seen at a home on W. Leech Avenue, between N. Race Street and E.B. Terry Elementary.

Here's some shots of my yard decorated for Halloween, it's on Cedar and Preston. I've got it lit up at night and have a fog machine running. Hope you like them. (The WebMeister says see it at night for the full effect)

You can see this display of spooks over on Cleveland Avenue. Have a happy (and safe!) Halloween!
