Lovely County Citizen

Mary Pinkley makes 10 different flavors of jerky, which she sells at her take-out business on North Main.

Steer to your problems. That's the advice Mary Pinkley got when she started her first post-retirement job, driving a 18-wheeler. Driving the semi was easy. Backing it up brought her to tears until a woman trucker told her the secret: steer to your problems.

Pinkley, a descendant of a pioneer Eureka Springs family, now has a retail business on North Main that started with a friend's request to use up venison in the freezer.

Find out more in the Aug. 23 edition of the Lovely County Citizen, on newsstands this coming WEDNESDAY evening!

Good advice for any situation! Nice view at Mary's business, too, plus cold water, friendliness, and shade!
