In this particular case that occurred Oct. 27, 2019 near the town on Menlo in Chattooga County, two officers had so much to report that the incident narrative went on for 14 pages. Fortunately,…

Letters To The Editor December 2020

National Park Lands Are Not For Hunter Friendly Dear GON, John Trussell is right on target in outlining the concerns with the proposed Preserve in middle Georgia.

There was a gathering of the clan at the family home on my father-in-law’s cattle farm. It is not a big operation, but he’ll run 40 to 70 head on pastures along the Hiawassee River bottoms.…

Boy Nearly Hyperventilates After Catching Dream Fish

Have you ever had a shark bite your dream fish in half right at the side of the boat? Well it happened to me sadly. It was CRAZY that he bit it right at the side of the boat. The shark was HUGE! It was me, my dad and my dad’s friend. I had saved…

Fox And Hounds

When I was 12 years old or so, my folks occasionally dropped me off for the weekend at my Uncle’s farm-slash-ranch up in the country a couple of hours away. I have long since forgotten the excuse for doing so, but the reason was that I was 12 years old. Sane parents get away from…
