Parish hopes to reopen improved office annex
ST. FRANCISVILLE — West Feliciana Parish Police Jury officials said Thursday they hope improvements made in recent weeks would allow them to reopen the parish’s courthouse annex Monday. Jury President Bert Babers and Parish Manager Ambrose Sims said the jury will monitor the air quality in the building through the weekend and again Monday morning. "All things being equal, we hope we can reopen Monday," Babers said after meeting with a consulting engineer the jury hired last month when workers in the building began complaining of illnesses. Investigations into possible causes for the illnesses showed a buildup of carbon dioxide in the building, as well as dirty ductwork in part of the building’s heating and air conditioning systems. A year ago, dangerously high levels of carbon monoxide made workers ill and forced the jury to close the building until the jury sealed an exterior opening in its boiler room wall near the boilers’ exhausts.

Just thought we should throw out a few tentative dates for the Challenge next year. As we are a bit spread out over the map, this may take some sorting. I am open for the end of June or thereabouts. Anyone else? Aside to Randie: Will we take the same Air Canada flight or British Airways or whatever is cheapest, or should we be like the Royal Family and travel separately? In case one of us crashes, the other will still be available? .

Coeur d'Alene Soldier Buried at Arlington National Cemetery
I pulled my car around back of the legion to avoid what I saw as a small funnel cloud picking up debris and still paralleling the highway. When the brunt of the storm passed, I left, primarily to check out the report of an injury at Farregut State Park. Thankfully, it was a false alarm. When I reached Bayview, realizing that the back end of the storm was aproaching. It passed just south of us drenching us with heavey rain. When It was all over, the local kids went out onto the docks to fish. One six year old fished a street sign out of the waterway between JD's and the Captain's Wheel. His Mom brought it up to the yard. It had been picked up by the twister, carried 300 feet and left a perfect 4x4 hole behind. The young man's picture will be featured in "Your Voice" in the near future. DFO: Here's another example of how the online world has an advantage over the print world and even the "film-at-11" types.
