It has often been said that a good picture is worth a thousand words. Using that we offer you 11,000 words this week! Mayfest was not about names, it was all about people and families. Free admission brought together an array of people from all over Rutherford County. It was a great display of talent. Vendors from all over came. The festive mood, smiles and laughter was a positive indication that the 39th Mayfest - “Top Of The Hill” in Rutherfordton definitely was a huge success!
Last week’s rematch wasn’t much of a rematch at all between East Rutherford and Chase on the baseball diamond. East Rutherford exacted revenge by whipping the Trojans 25-1 at Chase last week.
With that being the case, East Rutherford looks ever-so dangerous again as they should open the 2A playoffs at home against South Iredell, Friday.

For a school, who has accomplished about every baseball feat in this state, they still have to wait one more year before claiming a trophy that’s a little closer to home.
East Rutherford (18-3) hosted the third annual Easter Baseball tourney last week and they have still yet to win it.
Is your life like lasagna?
My wife makes the best lasagna you’ve ever eaten. I watched her make it once. She prepares her sauce with secret ingredients that I can’t tell you about or she’d have to kill me. She mixes together all of these cheeses. Then she carefully layers all of these ingredients in her special lasagna dish. It’s the layering that attracted my attention.
Last Saturday, instead of hunting or fishing, I took a morning run with a friend. We both were not feeling too good since we had ran a little harder the day before, so we cut a planned 8 mile run down to 7. I had also just joined my wife and daughter in a detox diet the day before and was craving my jelly beans or something sweet really bad. It was not a good morning.
