Alma Gene and Danny Darnell recently celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary with a luncheon hosted by their family.

They were married Sept. 1, 1960.

Mrs. Darnell, the former Alma Moore, is a daughter of the late Clyde and Christine Moore of Lawrenceburg.

Mr. Darnell is a son of the late J.C. and Velma Darnell of Lawrenceburg.

The Darnells are farmers.

They have two children, Christy Burke and her husband, Wayne, and Danette Warford and her husband, Kevin, both of Lawrenceburg.

Will someone please quit winding the clock? Time is moving way too fast. It’s almost October, though you couldn’t much tell it by the weather we’re having now.

I brought out the Old Farmer’s Almanac to see what was forecast for October. On the plus side, it calls for 2.5 inches of rain. Rain showers, mixed with warm and sunny days, make up most of the month. One exciting note for the 21st through the 29th is snow showers. Kind of hard to imagine that right now.

Disc golf group thanks Scouts, sponsors

To the editor:

Lawrenceburg’s inaugural PDGA sanctioned disc golf tournament was held Sept. 25, and the Lawrenceburg Disc Golf Association would like to thank everyone involved in making it a success.

Thirty-eight golfers participated in the 2010 Autumn Classic tournament, played at both the city and county disc golf courses.

With this year’s tournament being so successful, plans are to make this tournament an annual event with the Burgoo Festival.

When people think of truck and tractor pulls in Kentucky, it’s a good bet that Lawrenceburg is fast becoming the first location that comes to mind.

Although shortened to just one day due to last Friday’s rainy weather, the Battle of the Bluegrass event in the county park proved successful and marks the second time in as many years that Lawrenceburg has played host to the largest outdoor pull in Kentucky, according to organizer Eddie Carey.
