Living the Dream, Day 5
By Lyn Bliss
I’m tired – I’m coming home!! But, whee – a ride it’s been! This
whole week has FAR exceeded ALL expectations! I just don’t think that
my writings have given any sort of a full accounting of all the minute
by minute things that have happened. Right now, the bags are packed and
I’m ready to go to the airport – thought that might be a priority! It
was sort of a... Read

Drama and heroics gets FM past Newton
By George Starks
PITSBURG- With 38:03 having elapsed off the second half clock, it was

WE NEED TO STAND TOGETHER
|
Once in a Blue Moon
By Mona Leise
For those of you who wanted to read my writings again - THANK YOU. I'm
still stunned. Thanks for your encouragement. A number of us are going
through "life-changing" events. And yes, Deb; I agree. We need to stand
together. We are all we've got. It's interesting - all of us are close

THE ONE "SPECIFIC" HE NEEDED TO GIVE...

Redstate…
The Next President
By Erick Erickson

FROM
THE EDITOR... ON THE INSIDE - SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 1,
2012 |
The
Editor’s photo once again features a recognizable figure… She’s tired
but heading home after celebrating the traditional dropping of confetti
at the end of the Convention. CNO offers a huge thanks to Lyn for
fitting articles into her hectic schedule for the last five days. I
also want to draw special note to a new columnist. Mona Leise has
joined the County News Online crew with her down-home weekly messages.
