Current Issue
WASHINGTON, Ga. — “Walk softly and carry a big stick,” the old adage advises, as articulated by our 26th President, the Rough Rider himself, Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt. Down in Georgia, where Roosevelt’s mother spent her childhood, the Thornton boys—brothers Gene and Neil and Gene’s son Mark—prefer to talk softly and haul loads full of big sticks, as many loads as the mills and Mother Nature will allow. After all, that’s how they make their living, the only way of life they’ve ever known.
