Saturday, I was out taking care of the goats and chickens. With the extremely hot summer we’ve got going – and we haven’t even reach August yet º plenty of fresh water, hay and cool places to hang out are essential.
While I was working with the domestic animals, I also turned out the wild animals – namely, Holly (11), Kent (6) and Lowell (4). Left to their own devices, these three can be far more dangerous, but just as fun to observe.
While I was out on maternity leave, I tried my best to keep up with the latest happenings in The Graphic so I wouldn’t be completely clueless upon my return. It seems like while I was gone, a lot happened.
I was sad to hear about Nash County Sheriff’s Deputy and U.S. Marshall Warren Lewis, who was killed in the line of duty. It’s certainly a tragedy for not only the family members of Deputy Lewis but also for the families of the young men who were involved in the shooting.

John Gessaman, in a July 6, 2011 article in The Wilson Times, stated, “We were pursuing Sanderson Farms.” Now we know the impetus for rezoning the land along N.C. 97 was to recruit Sanderson Farms.
