My wife Pat and I went to the Pioneer Playhouse in Danville last Thursday evening. The current play is “The Infamous Ephraim” written by Holly Henson, about Dr. Ephraim McDowell, the first doctor in recorded history to perform abdominal surgery. We have been to many performances at the playhouse, and in my opinion this one is the best!

Preschool screenings and birthday surprises
Hi!
... and the wind blew and blew. Perhaps this is the windy season!

Try chicken to beat high cost of meat
As you may have noticed in recent months, the price of meat, especially beef, is creeping up.
Where it was pretty common to see cuts like rib steak, and even T-bones and porterhouse hovering at $4.99 a pound a year or so ago, the same cuts are now $2 to $3 higher. - More Lifestyles & Community Headlines
