This week was filled with sunshine and dry weather and most everyone who has a
hayfield was cutting hay. The long cool and rainy spring ended for a few days, with
temperatures hitting 90 degrees.
It has been time to enjoy our beautiful county, traveling down Beech.
Beech Fork meanders all the way from Oka down the western edge of Calhoun to
enter Roane County a distance away, emptying into Henry's Fork.

 In times past most Calhoun
hillsides were "clean" as on this Beech farm
