National Gravely family reunion held at Looper’s barn in Pickens
PICKENS — In the late 1700s, as the Revolutionary War was drawing to a close, the Gravely (Gravlee) family moved from Virginia to what is now known as Holly Springs (Sunset community) in upper Pickens County, which was still under the control of Native Americans.
Many descendants of those early pioneers still live in the Sunset community area. Others have moved to Alabama,

Steaks grilled right are never wrong

Almost everybody grills steak. And there are a few basic rules to apply to all steak grilling projects.
Never put a steak on a cold grill. Get the grill hot before starting. Leave the steak out of the refrigerator for 30 minutes before grilling. Let the steak rest, loosely covered with foil, after cooking. When you take the steak off the grill, put it on a platter that has been heated. Keeping the hot stuff hot is important.
Never leave the grill unattended.
That’s about the size of it. Oh, and buy the best quality meat you can find. Cheap meat is never really a bargain. Enjoy.
