They're back!! Dredging underway again for Corps of Engineers, dredging today at Dover Boat Ramp, this should certainly help with boats being able to launch from ramp without worrying about debris. This is the first step, hopefully the county can get more dredging done in coves and bays in the future.

Stewart County Honors Memorial Day!
So proud of Stewart County! Even though, the National Cemetery at Fort Donelson, where event is normally held, couldn't guarantee allowing a large crowd, since it is run by the federal government, even with many interruptions on the highway between semis and motorcycles, nearly 200 people attended to pay a heartfelt tribute to those who lost their lives protecting our freedoms, at the Memorial Day Ceremony at the Stewart County Visitor Center. With the traveling Korean War Memorial in the backdrop, Boy Scout Troop 501 presented the colors and American Legion Post 72 gave a stirring reminder of what this country stands for when Veteran Lisa Polarek told the crowd what each 'official' fold of the American Flag means. God Bless America. Read more about the ceremony in this week's Standard, in your mail a day late this week Stewart County but at the office Wednesday.

Dig a Little Deeper in the Well Boys
Workers have been working since Monday, putting in nearly 40 hours. Most people don't realize the amount of work it takes to dredge in the Cumberland River at a boat ramp, I didn't. The truck in the video is number 102, according to Project Manager Mike Goode with Brymak. Each truck carries about 20-25 tons of silt. Some is water weight but there's a lot of mud that's been taken out. They are trying to finish up before rain moves in tomorrow night. We'll have the updated story and how much was taken out in next week's Standard.
Semi Pulled out of Steep Holler
It was a long process but Jones Bros. Towing out of Hopkinsville/Clarksville finally got the trailer pulled up out of the holler on Hwy 79 West of Dover. They tried with the cab still attached but that didn't work. Once they disconnected the trailer from the cab and got another tow truck involved the trailer slowly started moving up the hill to the guardrail. Now, they'll have to drag it to the hole in the guardrail and then...look where the cab of the truck is, at the bottom of the holler. The semi was full of Raisin Bran cereal.
