Good morning, Jackson County. Fair season is officially within reach — OHillCo ride passes are already on sale at Newkirk's Bakery in Wellston, which means the countdown is real and the funnel cake daydreams are justified. Meanwhile, the national headlines are doing their usual thing: drone tariffs, government funding drama, U.S.-Iran tensions rattling oil markets, and the FBI shutting down Hamas recruitment sites in a crypto seizure that sounds like a movie plot. Ford also quietly hit a 20-year production high on Super Duty trucks, because apparently big trucks never go out of style.
When you need a breather from all that, the Events section has a Richmond Dale yard sale, a Faith Night outdoor movie, and the OHillCo Quilt & Craft Show on deck. Fresh listings are waiting in Real Estate too.
