Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Ellison went to Morehead, Ky., where they visited their son, Matt and Katie Ellison over the weekend.

Mr. and Mrs. Jeff McKinney and Nathan, Abbie and Ben, visited his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Steven Mc-Kinney over the week. They enjoyed boating and fishing on Watts Bar Lake.

I enjoyed visiting with Elinor Crabtree this week. We enjoyed discussing family and friends.

My condolences to the family and friends of Alya Dean Bryant Long.
