I read the last post from GOP activist Bill Crawford with interest. From my understanding the tax paying residents of District 1, Karen Howard, actually pay more to Chatham County in taxes every year than the combined total for the western districts of 4 and 5. I believe even DistrictContinue Reading
It’s time again for the historic Bynum General Store to get a little TLC! During a regular summer–remember those?–the Bynum General Store is a hub of activity.

Self-righteous and condescending. Good job Karen. If you and your family are that threatened and scared, just stay home in your comfort zone.

In response to Brad Page, Chatlist #6772, I can recommend donating to The Salvation Army of Chatham County. Of course, I am biased, as there are many worthy nonprofits in our county.

Many schools in the area have a backpack program or Fuel Up program that supports food insecure children. They provide food for weekends and often other school breaks. Despite all of the uncertainties, these programs have been finding ways to continue their mission. I have tried to put together aContinue Reading
Sadly, this is the time of year when downy mildew takes a deadly toll on impatiens. Typically it attacks when we have rain after a long hot/dry spell. It is heartbreaking and there is nothing you can do about it. It has plagued my yard since 2012, destroying every impatienContinue Reading
Last week I did a piece about seeing/finding things beside the highway. It seems there is no end to what turns up there. I thought it would be great fun if Chatlisters would write about things they have found beside the highway. There must be hundreds of stories out thereContinue Reading

I just got back from Noel’s. He showed me a chain of messages initiated by a woman on Nextdoor. She claimed that Noel made a racist comment to her, but she wouldn’t elaborate on what exactly he said, and she didn’t say anything to Noel at the time. A wholeContinue Reading
In Chatlist 6772, Michael defends freedom of speech, “even to the point of a verbal attack”. Michael gives the *impression* that Bea personally attacked; but Bea saying “you all” was NOT a personal attack. Right Michael? Michael then vigorously exercises his of freedom of speech, verbally attacking Bea: “No, Bea,Continue Reading
