Open casting call for local actors


Hello readers. We have snow, and lots of it at this writing on Sunday evening, the last day in January.

By the time Friday afternoon rolled around last week, I was almost a non-believer of all the weather forecasts that I had heard from three days before. All this white stuff just dropped from the sky while we were sleeping. It was a soft, white blanket that completely took my breath away when I looked out around 4:30 a.m. on Saturday morning.

It really did feel good to just stay home for the weekend and sleep a little later than usual. I did go “snow disking” on Causey Hill with my granddaughter Amanda. I think the next time (if there is a next time), I will remember to take a bigger sliding disk — one for my size. Maybe I will not be so sore from all that exercise.

I made snow cream later in the day and it was oh so good. Thank you, Marianne Hurte for the best recipe.

Most church services were canceled because of the 5 to 7 inches of snow that covered parking areas leaving huge drifts in the fence rows, and I did miss going to church. I feel like my Sunday is not complete if I don’t interact with my good neighbors for Sunday morning services. I did however, spend the afternoon with two good friends, Linda and Janice, as we took a break for some much needed sorting.

A special piece from Linda Caldwell about Second Fridays announces that Trish Ayers, producer, is sending out a call for actors and actresses for a series of plays, “MoneyBlue$,” written during the Kentucky Women’s Playwright Seminar last year. The plays will be presented in April in Berea at the Arena Theatre. Call Trish at 985-0686 for more information.

A very happy anniversary to Tom and Coy Burnam, Feb. 7, and also to “Ced” and Ellen Hagan on Feb. 10.

The Lord has blessed you all.

May God bless.
