I have a hard time believing that school will be starting in early August . The break from school seems to pass so quickly , but then the Fall break , Christmas holiday , and Spring break give us time to take trips and help break up the school year .
I ’ d like to congratulate Ray Cutter , who delivers mail in Rising Sun . Counting his time in the U . S . Army of nine years , he has thirty years of service with the U . S . Postal System and is very dedicated to his job . Ray served from 1984-92 with the 101st Airborne ( Screamin ’ Eagles ) in Panama and Saudi Arabia . Ray walks an average of eleven miles per day , and that really adds up . His Grandpa Elmer Richardson and Grandpa Charlie Cutter were both World War II Veterans .
I went out of town for ten days to Branson , Missouri with granddaughter Carli for a National Fast Pitch Softball Tournament . The weather was very , very hot and humid . She had a great time and we were able to ride the go-carts , watch the show at Dolly Parton ’ s Stampede , and visit the Titanic exhibit . Most of the time was spent playing softball , but we were able to get in some quality swimming time too . We extended an extra day so we could visit the Titanic and also “ Ride the Ducks ” but

We stopped in St . Louis on the way out and back . When we rode the tram up to the top of the Arch , I remarked I still had my ticket for the Titanic from the night before . I jinxed us because the tram broke down , and we were up at the top for nearly three hours . Next time I ’ ll keep quiet .
Congratulations to Allen Cutter for his 2018 Honorarium for his dedicated service to Ohio County 4-H as a participant and as an adult . It takes people like Allen to make the fair the huge success it has been through the years . Ron Spurlock called and told me how thrilled Allen was to receive the award and that Ron and wife , Connie , are very proud of him .
Another job well done by Mayor Brent Bascom for getting to kiss a cow at the 4-H Fair with his second place finish to Police Chief David Hewitt . They had a great time helping with this fun event with the kids . Cliff Thies joined them , and they all want to do it again . I didn ’ t realize kissing a cow could be such fun , but I heard that all three loved it .
The Rising Sun Ferry has arrived , and the dedication has taken place . Now we ’ re just waiting to start riding it . I think the ferry will be a great asset . I ’ m looking forward to making several trips on it with the family and seeing some new places , or ones I haven ’ t seen for years , on the Kentucky side . I always enjoyed riding the ferry that Les Fogle operated . The kids and I would ride down , get on the boat , and go to the Rabbit Hash General Store . The LADY LUCK should be operating the first part of August . I have a film I took back in the 70 ’ s of the ferry at Vevay , Warsaw , Aurora , and the Anderson Ferry boats .
Thanks to Bryce Kendrick and the officials of the City of Rising Sun for another spectacular fireworks display for the 4th of July . A big crowd enjoyed the event and went home very happy .
The Rising Sun Boys ’ Varsity Basketball Team has a new coach , Rick Scholl , as Chris Jones has moved to Southwestern Indiana to take a job as an Assistant Principal . Good Luck to both .
The major project at the Veterans ’ Tribute Tower is moving right along , and I just love the flags that are flying . I would still like to see a very tall flag pole somewhere on the riverfront where we could fly a big Garrison Flag on special days such as Memorial Day , Flag Day , 4th of July , Labor Day , Veterans ’ Day and a few others . A flag about one-half that size could fly the rest of the time . We have a beautiful

riverfront , and it doesn ’ t get any prettier than the American Flag .
Kystie Jaehnen received an award from the FOP at its convention for her assisting a local officer in dire trouble and the award was for Citizens Assisting Police .
Former Rising Sun resident , Tony Sabo , was recently elected Superior Court Judge in Ventrua Co . California .
We had another successful Shiner Pride Car Show and it takes so many to chip in to make it the huge success it is . It brings a lot of people to town and a lot of money too . I ’ m amazed at how many cars show up to enter the show and try to win a trophy .
Brian Graham is leaving Rising Sun for a new teaching job at Morristown , and we all wish him all the success there is . I ’ ve known Brian for many years and serve on the Park Board with him . He is a lot of fun and has a great sense of humor , and I will miss picking on him .
The side car motorcycles were all over Rising Sun . Mikel Murray and Belinda Schraeder are to be thanked for making this happen . People rode their bikes from over twenty-five states and three nations ( USA , Canada , and Japan ). One hundred eighty-five bikes were registered .
Former Rising Sun player , Alix DeDreu , had an outstanding year at Thomas More College as a Fast Pitch Softball Player . She was chosen for the All Region Team with a pitching record of 23-7 . I have watched her play since she was six years old and would come to our ball field and play on the Diamonds 8U Team .
The 4-H Auction brought in over $ 63,000 for all the animals sold . The program rewards the kids for all their hard work and dedication . I can remember how thrilled Brian and Kelli were when they were able to sell their ducks and chickens . The 4-H Fair crowned Nathan Kappes as King and Kinsey Price as Queen . They were crowned as Prince and Princess back in 2012 .
It won ’ t be too long until we get some cooler weather . I hope this year the trees are very colorful and we can enjoy the wonders of God ’ s beauty . Take care , be thankful for all your blessings , and may God Bless all of you .

I have a hard time believing
that school will be starting
in early August. The break
from school seems to pass so
quickly, but then the Fall break,
Christmas holiday, and Spring
break give us time to take trips
and help break up the school
year.
I’d like to congratulate Ray
Cutter, who delivers mail in
Rising Sun. Counting his time
in the U.S. Army of nine years,
he has thirty years of service
with the U.S. Postal System

and is very dedicated to his job.
Ray served from 1984-92 with
the 101st Airborne (Screamin’
Eagles) in Panama and Saudi
Arabia. Ray walks an average
of eleven miles per day, and
that really adds up. His Grandpa
Elmer Richardson and
Grandpa Charlie Cutter were
both World War II Veterans.
I went out of town for ten
days to Branson, Missouri
with granddaughter Carli for
a National Fast Pitch Softball
Tournament. The weather was
very, very hot and humid. She
had a great time and we were
able to ride the go-carts, watch
the show at Dolly Parton’s
Stampede, and visit the Titanic
exhibit. Most of the time was
