Marty Brooks instructs his 13-year-old daughter, Kolee, in the fine art of plowing the old-fashioned way with horses Molly and Kate. "I am really proud of Kolee," said mom Vickie. "Not too many girls her age can harness and work a team of horses all by themselves." Neighbor Judy Henson snapped this spring shot of the father/daughter team as they began plowing at their Saddle Creek Road farm in Cullowhee's Caney Fork community. Area photographers like Henson are invited to submit their favorite spring pictures to The Sylva Herald's "Mountain Spring" photo contest. Entries are due at the newspaper's Main Street office by 5 p.m. Thursday, April 10. Color photos must be at least 5 inches by 7 inches to qualify.
