Chickens in the city? Converse Heights, of all places? Oh, my! Speaking words found in Ecclesiastes, Lib Smith says, “There’s nothing new under the sun.” She remembers when she was a kid living on Otis Boulevard in Converse Heights, where her grandparents living on the same street had chickens. “Not only that, but Bobby Chapman just down the street had a pony. So I had to laugh when reading that the doctor living in Converse Heights wants permission from City Council to have a chicken coop. Chickens were there long before this council.”
‘HAD THEIR DAY’: James Price of Inman smells a rat in the pricing of gasoline: “The government and everybody made us believe it was coming down, and folks went to the resorts and traveled again, and as soon as they did, the price shot back up. Maybe they had their day just lying to people.”
‘OUTSTANDING’: Ted Young of Woodruff was mighty impressed by the work of Laurens Electric during a recent storm. “They deserve kudos,” he says. “A tree fell across my power line on a Friday night, and I called at 1:30 in the morning to report it. I was expecting it to be a miserable weekend without power, but they surprised me. They had the line repaired and my power back on by 3:30 that morning. That’s outstanding work. They really did a fine job.”
