Gabby, thanks for taking time out of your nesting schedule to chat with us. Let’s start with the basics—why the Owensboro Health Regional Hospital Mother/Baby courtyard? Gabby: Where else would a goose go to deliver? The name says it all. I’ve been coming here since 2019, and officially nesting here every spring since 2021. It’s peaceful, protected and full of friendly faces. Plus, the courtyard has excellent nesting vibes. We heard you changed up your spot this year. Any reason?

Who knew a "major award" could be this big? One of the many memorable scenes in the holiday movie classic A Christmas Story is when the old man wins a prize for solving a newspaper quiz. A giant crate arrives at the house marked "Fragile" or "fra-gil-ay," and you know the rest. The original leg lamp is in the front window of the House from A Christmas Story tourist attraction in Cleveland, Ohio. The leg lamp statue is in Chickasha, Oklahoma. Why? More on that in a minute.

College tuition has been rising for a long time. You certainly don’t need me reminding you of that and a quick Google search will give you plenty of data to corroborate this statement. And with those tuition costs comes a high amount of debt for graduating students that's enough to make you keel over. In Kentucky alone, the average student loan balance is close to $32,000.

Preface: Yes, I know the Cardinals lost their first game in the NCAA Tournament this week, but this cake looks too cool. Here we are again watching wall-to-wall basketball until a new NCAA Men's Basketball champ is crowned, this year on April 7th. My bracket busted on day one, but I still like to see if I get any big upsets right. Oh yeah, I picked McNeese State! Kentucky cruised into the second round where they will face Illinois on Sunday.
