Gene Esker Will Be Fishing Soon
Gene Esker has spent some time at Red Bud Regional. Hurry up and get back to the bottoms, Gene. Your fish are waiting for you to catch them. Get well soon! The old saying “All good things must come to an end” is so true for the Village of Fults. The ball diamond will no …
We’ll All Be Seeing 2020 This Year
Hello, 2020! Does this mean we will all see the world with 20-20 vision? Will our normal 20-20 hindsight be brought into the present? This year will also be a leap year. I am looking forward to seeing who and high how people will jump. Christmas was really a great day for me. The warm …
It’s Beginning To Look Like Christmas
by Judy Krebel It is Sunday evening and I am typing away on another Fults Folks article. As I peer out a window, I notice snow is starting to fall. I’m hoping the news crews have it wrong and no ice comes our way early this week. All the Ed-itor is worried about is Fults …
Got My Fill At Thanksgiving
by Judy Krebel Thanksgiving is over and I am wondering how I could have eaten so much. Our family got together at Mark and Ann Laurent’s house in rural Prairie du Rocher.

Everyone continues to talk about the pending demise of the Fults softball field. While the news is sad, hearing everyone …
Time For Shrimp Boils And Car Shows
by Judy Krebel The fall harvest of corn has started as the soybeans continue to ripen. The calendar may read September, but it sure doesn’t feel like fall has yet arrived. I am good with that, because cold weather doesn’t suit me well. Several events took place the last couple of weeks. Our Lady of …
School’s Back In Session
by Judy Krebel The water has receded and school is back in session. I guess things are returning to almost normal around these parts. Last weekend I attended the Neil Diamond tribute show at The Falls in Columbia. Tina Lloyd turned 62 and decided that was what she wanted to do for her birthday. It …
Summer Has Flown By, And Fall Calendar Is Filling Up
by Judy Krebel Summer is winding down as Labor Day has come and gone. It is now time to get ready for the fall holidays. Where has the year gone? It is really flying by. While spending last Friday with my granddaughters, one of them asked me how long it was until Christmas. I thought …
