My elderly dad cut himself on some barbed wire and the wound doesn’t look good. He’s afraid to go to the doctor because he doesn’t want to be exposed to Covid. My sister told him he could see a doctor over the internet. Is that really true?

Well folks, it’s winding down. Christmas is almost here. I love to see it come and I love to see it go. That’s kind of sad isn’t it. But it is such as busy time, I think I’m glad for things to slow down again. I’ll take this minute to wish you all a Very Merry Christmas, and we will all pray the New Year is better than the last two years! They have been rough in lots of ways!

Been cutting up limbs and piling to burn. Love my chain saws. Making short work of it all. Kind of cool out today (Monday) but the activity keeps me warm. Jess, Skip, and kids came to help and in short order had it done. Ryan can cut up the big stuff for his stove and I’ll burn the rest. I had made a big pot of chili, so they took chili, hot dogs, buns and Frito’s home for supper.
Starting January 1, 2022 the Marshall Mountain Wave will have a price increase. Due to the increase of postage and printing prices we are having to fluctuate the rates of our paper and subscriptions. Individual papers will increase to 75 cents a paper. All subscriptions will increase $5. In County will now cost $29, out of county will be $43, out of state will be $59, and online will be $22. In the near future we will also be increasing the prices for ads and obituaries. As soon as we know when the changes will start, we will post it in the Wave and post it on our Facebook page. We thank each and every one of our customers for the support of the local paper.
