Calling gardeners and book lovers

By Veronica Arnold

Hey community, the Adair county library is going to be the special location for the 4H Garden Club project. The 4H Youth and myself will work with the library at planting some fall bulbs to beautify the grounds for everyone in the community to enjoy. So whether you enjoy the outdoors or enjoy the quiet library, this project is one we can all work together for everyone on October 5, 2026. October 5th is the next 4H Garden Club and we will be meeting at the library to plant these bulbs!

How you can help:
If you have flowers which grow by bulbs--like tulips or daffodils--consider digging up a few, splitting them, and sharing them with your community. You can drop them off this week at the Adair County Extension Office, 409 Fairground Street, Columbia, KY. If you do not have any bulbs to share, consider grabbing just 1 package from a store this week, or ask a neighbor if they have any bulbs you could have. We truly wish to make this a community-based garden, by our community bringing a piece of their gardens to share!

Thank you for your generosity and your support of our community, our public library and the 4H program. For questions about 4H you can contact the Adair County Extension Office.

Candidate Introductions 2026: Chris Reeder

To the People of Adair County,

My name is Chris Reeder, and I am the Republican candidate for Adair County Judge Executive.

Adair County has always been home to me. I'm a graduate Adair County High School and Lindsey Wilson College. I have raised my family here, worked here, and had the privilege of serving the people of District 4 as Magistrate for almost 8 years. That experience has given me a firsthand understanding of county government. What works, where we face challenges, and where I believe we have opportunities to do better.

One of the most striking fall butterflies commonly found in Kentucky, the Questionmark Butterfly is brilliant orange on top, but when it folds its wings, turns to a pale brown that blends in incredibly well with fallen leaves.

Carol Perkins: I've Fallen and Can't Get Up

Previous Column: When you need help

By Carol Perkins

When the commercial with the tagline, "I've fallen, and I can't get up," became a household slogan, I didn't realize how anyone could get down and not get up--until it happened to me. I wasn't wearing an alert necklace.

Two o'clock in the morning and I'm sitting in my recliner, reading. The need to go to the bathroom snuck up on me, and I made my way to the nearby utility room at a speed much faster than my normal gait.

Just as I neared my destination, my feet flew up from under me, and I fell straight back, hitting my head on the floor but not knocking me out. I lay there for a bit between the washer and dryer and the wall...a narrow room...trying to decide how to get up. There was nothing for me to grab.

Air cleaner tips - what they will and won't do

An air cleaner can be a big help for people with allergies, but there are some things it won't do. It will not lower the radon in your basement, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. It will not fix a mold problem, and it will not do much about the fumes from fresh paint or a new carpet. No air cleaner removes everything.

What a good one will do is pull particles out of the air: pollen, dust, pet dander, mold spores, wildfire smoke.

Travel: Saying Goodbye To Washington


2026-09-26 - Mount Rainier National Park - Photo by Robert Ellis, robertelliswoodworking.com.
Robert writes, "I thought it might be fitting to end this travel series with one last image of Mount Rainier in its entirety. We were thankful to have visited this area when the visibility was favorable for viewing 'the mountain'. The summer months are when you're more likely to see the mountain, but the downside is it's also fire season. Some of the park was closed for that very reason, but what we did get to explore was beautiful. I would personally rate this park very highly, and if you can include Olympic National Park in the same trip...it's a win-win!

The lake in the photo is Reflection Lake. At the time of our arrival, the wind picked up a little so the perfect 'stillness' of the lake wasn't going to happen; that perfect mirror image of the mountain on the water wasn't to be. However, the lake, blue skies, mountain with some wildflowers in bloom still produced a beautiful scene!"

Area actors join cast of new detective series

Production is scheduled to begin this October in Savannah, Georgia, for the upcoming "Detective Rose Thorne" TV series, and area actors Don Overstreet and Emmy Gonzalez have both been named to the cast.

The television series is based on the book series written by Dawn Kirby and R. Kyle Hannah, published by Jumpmaster Press. The Detective Rose Thorne Series follows a brilliant, but damaged, Savannah detective as she tracks a sadistic serial killer who leaves victims wrapped in custom rose-patterned sheets -- a personal message aimed squarely at her.

Don Overstreet, the son of Joyce M. Coomer and Donald M. Overstreet of Columbia, has been adding steadily to his acting credits since 2017, most recently in the Gus Van Sant film Dead Man's Wire. Emelita "Emmy" Gonzalez, who moved to Columbia from Atlanta, GA in 2019, has worked as actor or stuntperson on a number of movie projects dating back to 2016, including Special Op: Rent-a-Cop, which filmed in Louisville in 2024.

Overstreet will play Brian Simpkins, and Gonzalez is set to play Diane Simpkins, in the new TV series.

Lindsey Wilson University celebrates United Methodist Heritage

By Duane Bonifer

The Rev. David Graves planned to be in the baseball business -- either as a professional baseball player or the owner of a professional baseball team.

But nearly 50 years ago, while standing alone at the pulpit in his church's sanctuary, Graves heard a calling for a different kind of career path.

"I heard a voice say, 'This is what I call you to do -- to proclaim the good news of Jesus,'" Graves told a standing-room-only audience of Lindsey Wilson University students, faculty and staff on Wednesday, September 23, 2026, in the university's V.P. Henry Auditorium.

Graves -- who is now the bishop of the Kentucky, Central Appalachian Missionary and Tennessee-Western Kentucky Annual Conferences of The United Methodist Church -- delivered the message at Lindsey Wilson's Church & University Celebration.
