Hello and happy new year! As we start the new year, so starts a new session in Frankfort. The 2013 session of the Kentucky General Assembly is 30 days long and is known as the “short” session. During the first week (which started Jan. 8), both caucuses are traditionally busy choosing their respective leaders and making committee assignments.

I am horrified by the way the trees are pruned along route 49 between the Nelson County line and Raywick. The people of Marion County should be, too.
