Pruitt Cleaners is right. Great job guys! If you see Jimmy Marlar or Larry Brown ask them about the time they swapped jobs with each other and didn't tell the bosses at the Vidette or the Cleaners. Just showed up for the other and went to work. Only in Iuka.

And a thank you to Sids Trading Post and Terrie for the beautiful pots out front and the mums around the flag pole. Oh and thanks to Monotech for the flag pole. Our county... museum will only grow with the help of all you!! ----Thanks from Jan---

Tishomingo County Archives & History Museum We are back at the museum today but with no air-conditioning. The heat makes it feel like an old building. Maybe we will have cool air tomorrow. The photo I am posting today is easy but it wouldn't be Iuka with him. Enjoy.

Tishomingo County Archives & History Museum The air-conditioner guy disconnected the upstairs units and we will have to see about replacing them but thank goodness we were able to shut everything off before any damage. I would like to thanks all the Iuka Fire Department guys that came to help. They were amazing.

Thankful it was nothing more than the HVAC! My opinion is bias but I think we have a great Fire Department in Iuka.

Tishomingo County Archives & History Museum Well yesterday was an exciting one for the museum. Heritage Day was great this year. I am just sorry that we could have any visitors. I made a call to the Iuka Fire Department at about 8:45 when we discovered smoke in the courtroom. We saw no flames but I was not taking changes. The Iuka Fire Department was GREAT!!!!!!...!! They checked everything and found no hot spots but we had to leave the power off most of the day.

Actually, looking on the bright side, nothing burned - and with the front and back doors opened, it seemed like old days - when I worked there (summer in college!); yep, a long time ago!
