Why Grayson, KY may never have a Walmart… (and why it’s okay)

One of the most common things I see people in this town asking for is a Walmart. It’s something I’ve never fully understood, for several reasons. For one, our nearest Walmart is only 15–20 minutes away. It’s literally about 10 miles from town, and if you can’t make the drive, you can even have groceries delivered to your house, including in places like Hitchins.

Wild horses roam free across a 50,000-acre riding playground in the mountains of eastern Kentucky. Some riders spot them just off a trail marked 101. Those horses don’t travel alone, either. Riders have also reported elk, grazing cattle, and high mountain views along the same gravel routes. I love...

Airport food storage violates FAA rule, commissioners find

It was recently brought to the commissioners’ attention that they were in violation of an FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) rule due to the storage of food at the Pike County airport. The reason for the food storage at the airport is because the food pantry does not have enough room for freezers to store 600 hundred turkeys for the people who are need and cannot afford to buy a turkey themselves and for their families. “We obviously want to serve the folks who are underprivileged by using the airport as a food bank. But if we’re in violation of the FAA, then we have to address it,” said Jerry Miller, Pike County Commissioner. Miller said that the issue is not whether they agree with the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration), but the issue is how they can still serve the underprivileged in Pike County in the short term. “We want to follow the law, and we want to be compliant. So, that’s a challenge for the commissioners and for Pike County Community Action. We were trying to support them,” Miller said. “But the bottom line is we’re going to figure it out if we’re going to be in compliance with the
