randon Dill is trying to get comfortable with biking next to trucks on the open road.
“I’ve been riding on the road when I can,” said the Winthrop University senior, a 2015 Pickens High School graduate. “It’s still hard to get used to a semi-truck passing within five feet of me, but I’m a lot calmer now. … I’m about 70 percent prepared. The rest, I’m winging it.”
He’ll need that calm this June, when he’ll bike approximately 3,500

Scones for morning, noon or night

ofowler@thepccourier.com
Scones have been around forever in many parts of the world, but they 
just became popular in our region fairly recently.
Once encountered, they are never to be forgotten. There are many variations of this delicacy, from sweet to savory, but one of our most favorite is the cranberry orange scone.
Remember to keep a light hand. You do not want to overwork the dough. Make a batch, cool and pop into the freezer, then take out, thaw and reheat in the microwave for breakfast.

“Our people are sold on this,” county administrator Gerald Wilson said.

In 2008, county council standardized those ordinances into one
