Photos: Walnut Hill Tornado?
November 3, 2010
A NorthEscambia.com reader took these interesting photos that appear to show a possible funnel cloud Tuesday afternoon. Steven Godwin snapped the photos with his cell phone as he traveled along Highway 97 near Kansas Road in Walnut Hill.
WEAR TV 3 Meteorologist Allen Strum told NorthEscambia.com that the pictures “certainly look like a funnel cloud”; however, he said that radar did not indicate any severe weather near Walnut Hill Tuesday afternoon.
There were no weather watches or warnings for North Escambia Tuesday afternoon, and there were no damage reports received.

Molino Homemakers News
October 31, 2010
The Molino Homemakers Club is moving to a new meeting location, and the club recently made Angel Cards for hospice patients.
The club will meet at 10 a.m. on November 3 at Aldersgate United Methodist Church, located on Highway 29 in Molino, just south of Highway 97. After several new ladies joined the group, a larger meeting location was needed. Membership is just $5 per year.
The Molino Homemakers Club’s Terri Brown reports on recent club activities:
At a recent Molino Homemaker meeting Nancy Holland had club members pair up and make Angel Cards for Hospice. The Angels seem to come alive as they were put together with crocheted dresses, bells, ribbons and marbles. Club members pasted a verse on a piece of cardstock then the Angel was attached to the card and placed in an envelope. Elizabeth Barlow delivered the Angel cards to Hospice who will give them to their patients.
Several ladies bring projects each month that they have been working on and display them during show and tell. Pictured below, Frances Cheney and Becky Dorch show some of their work.

For “Good Boy” Rick Scott, Mom Can Be The Star Of The Show
October 30, 2010
Proud that her son is a “good boy”, Esther Scott has become something of star in this year’s race for Florida governor.
Her son’s TV ads feature her explaining how she raised her son in public housing, gave him all that she could and how he worked to buy a doughnut shop and gave her a job. Esther Scott said she really is proud of her son Rick Scott, the Republican candidate for governor.
“He really is a good boy,” Esther Scott told NorthEscambia.com Friday afternoon aboard the Rick Scott campaign bus. Rick Scott stood nearby, busily working to tidy up an on-board kitchen as he conducted a radio interview on his cell phone. Mom’s eyes were approving he as straightened up the mess left behind from doughnuts from an earlier visit to the Donut Hole Bakery Cafe in Santa Rosa Beach.
As Esther Scott, 86,walked into Fran’s Diner in Molino Friday, one would think a star had walked through the doors. Forget the guy with his name in huge letters on the side of the bus. Esther Scott has become a campaign star. As she travels with the campaign, she is asked to sign autographs, shakes hands and gets introduced like a star when Rick Scott takes the microphone. The applause is notable as she was introduced Friday in Molino.
Esther Scott said she remembers the day that her son came to her and hinted at his plans to run for governor of the Sunshine State.
“I told him to just be sure to hear what the people say, and not take money from people that would want favors in return. That’s what crooked politicians do,” she said. After all, he was a good boy, and mom planned from the beginning of the campaign that Rick Scott’s image would not be tarnished.
“He is going to make the best governor that Florida has ever had,” she said. “He will do the best that he can for this state, and keep every promise or die trying.”
She admits that she was a bit surprised that Rick, one of her five children, would seek the governor’s job. And she was even more surprised when he called and asked her to do the television ad.
“He’s a good boy,” is the ad’s catch phrase that has beamed its way across our televisions since Scott defeated Bill McCollum in the Republican primary.
“I was scared to death when it came time to film the ad,” she said. “I didn’t know why they wanted to hear from his mom. But it was kind of fun, and I think it got him a few votes.”
“I know I’d vote for him,” said said with a smile. “He’s good boy.”
But while she may be the rock star of the 2010 political ad season in Florida, Esther Scott told NorthEscambia.com that she is not a political adviser on the campaign. No pushing the issues to her son, she said.
“He didn’t listen to me as a child, and he’s not going to listen now about politics,” she said. “But he did always respect me.”
