Back row (L-R) Elizabeth Fill, Carsen Higginbothem, Brian Bothwell, and Will Roberson, Nesbitt Road has a lot of traffic including school buses and big trucks. It is used for cut through traffic from Graves Springs to Middle Road. During rainy weather, it is a bogging mess. A very enjoyable event was held last Thurs day night honoring this year's Distinguished Graduates. Well, I see that others are having a prob lem with code enforcement doing there job. I have called several times in past four months and nothing done. Beginning to look like a huge junk yard on parts of Armena Road. Nesbitt Road, originally named Pye Pond Road, was on the paving list when Tony Brun er was the Redbone Commissioner in the late 60's. I have no use for a TV. Have never watched CNN or MSNBC or any of the other fake left wing unhinged liberal news media. I use my computer to get my news from websites and individuals who are sane and have com mon sense. Over 300 E-Mails per day. It is time for national news media to report facts for news and state when giving their opinion. Caution should be exercised when burning VSU Announces Summer 2019 Dean’s List in this dry weather.

Fortunately, it shrunk to 4" be fore I found and netted it. Tried to sell me insurance as I threw it out. We'll miss your writings, Kate, but you are surely right about the amount of time in volved. Best to you on future endeavors. US Representative from Georgia Sanford Bishop supports impeaching President Trump. Hate to see Kate Scarmalis go, enjoyed her articles. FYI Kate, it is Lee Co. Ledger not Leesburg Ledger. As a newbie to the county, from a 4th generation resident it makes a difference to other areas if the county. Only in Albany will you see the featured house for sale pictured with a shot of the back rather than front. No curb appeal from the alley. Flying into October in a cloud of dust—but not from construction of the hospital. Are we going to do it or not? Donald Trump is an amazing man, does more in a day than his predecessors could do in a week or more. Thank you Mr President, and you haven't forgotten to work for us. I agree, the property on Hickory Grove needs attention. It's been a mess since the hurricane with nothing done. Not really happy with the property tax bill from Lee. But was thrilled with receiving a bill from another county for property al ready sold knowing the other guy has to pay. Amazon selling a talking Trump 8" figure on a base, 17 sayings in Trumps voice. Replay your favorites. ChalkFest a smashing success in Albany, 4,000 people downtown for anything these days would be. And no reported shootings is icing on the cake. Don't want to wish bad things on people but if Adam Schiff wound up in the hurt locker of someone else's wish, I wouldn't lose any sleep. The man never met a lie he didn't want to tell.
