Kentucky Color: Into the forest we should go Comments re: Words of Wisdom for April 30, 2026 By Billy Joe Fudge I so much appreciate each and every one of Miss Donna Rieder's "Words of Wisdom" on CM. Of course, this particular quote from Mariah Danu struck a chord with me, since I have spent most of my adult life in the forest. I also was blessed to share many trips into the forest with others as well. In this wild and crazy world we find ourselves today, "concrete, steel and the screen" corrupts most every visage of the natural world which sustains us and robs our hearts of the awareness of our integral connection to it. Because each message that our senses of hearing, sight, touch, smell and taste feed into our minds is corrupted by that which I call the "ills of urbanization", about the only ecoystem that can sufficiently block those "ills" to allow the realities of nature and creation to enter the annals of our minds and hearts, is the forest. I have taken thousands on trail walks through the woods during my 30 year career at the Kentucky Division of Forestry, and nearly 25 years volunteering at Homeplace on Green River. Each trip through the forest with students and their teachers, most of whom had never set foot in the glorious wooded ecosystem beyond their backyards or cooled by spring-fed streams on a hot and muggy day proved both rewarding and discouraging. It was so rewarding to see the joy of most of the children and their teacher in finding this place of peace, comfort and uncorrupted sensory stimulation and discouraging in that I was reminded that 99.99 percent of children and my fellowmen will not be able to experience this same joy. Our culture, our educational apparatus, our politicians and all of us continually lament the loss of our humanity, our self-awareness and sense of decency. I submit to you that it is indeed a problem with our "souls" and that our lives would be significantly improved if only, "into the forest we would go!"

Bridge replacement projects to begin on KY90 in Cumberland Co. From Amber Hale The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) advises motorists that two bridge replacement projects are scheduled to begin on May 1, 2026, on KY 90 in Cumberland County. The projects will replace the aging bridges at Allen Creek and Dutch Creek along KY 90 with new structures that will provide safer and smoother travel well into the future. Work will begin on May 1 at Allen Creek (mile point 9.49), where crews will install a temporary one-lane diversion. During construction, traffic will be reduced to a single lane with alternating flow controlled by temporary traffic signals. Beginning next week, crews will start earthwork at Dutch Creek (mile point 8.24). Motorists traveling through this area should expect intermittent stoppages or one-lane traffic at times, with traffic controlled by flaggers. Both projects are scheduled for completion by November 30, 2026. The schedule is subject to change due to inclement weather or other unforeseen delays. Motorists are urged to use caution, reduce speed, and expect delays when traveling through the work zone. For Kentucky's latest traffic and travel information, visit goky.ky.gov or navigate traffic by downloading the free Waze app at www.waze.com.

EDA voices support for Sports Complex--outside Commerce Park By Mig Feuser / The Adair Progress A special-called meeting of the Columbia-Adair County Economic Development Authority (EDA) last Thursday, April 23, 2026, attended by many citizens, focused on a proposal to locate a sports complex within Green River Commerce Park. After discussion and review of background information, board members expressed support for the concept of a sports complex in the community, but not at that location. EDA Chairman Larry Walker explained that the discussion originated with a March 5 letter from Columbia Mayor Pamela Hoots, requesting consideration of at least 30 acres within the industrial park for such a facility. The board first discussed the request at its March meeting and later invited the mayor to provide additional details. Walker provided an overview of the EDA's purpose and recent investments in the Commerce Park, noting more than $1.8 million in infrastructure improvements over the past three years. Those efforts, supported by state and regional grants as well as local matching funds, have prepared the site for industrial recruitment, including a large build-ready pad and a 50-acre shovel-ready tract. Board members emphasized that the park's primary mission is to attract industry and create jobs. Walker stated that the use of land for a sports complex would conflict with funding requirements tied to the Kentucky Product Development Initiative and could limit the site's attractiveness to prospective employers. He also noted concerns about safety and compatibility, citing the potential risks of mixing industrial activity with recreational use.

LWU: Seniors mark graduation with gift, Evening on the Quad By Venus Popplewell Lindsey Wilson University seniors gathered at sunset to celebrate their undergraduate years ahead of Saturday's commencement ceremony. Sponsored by the Lindsey Wilson office of alumni relations, more than 100 graduating seniors came together on April 22, 2026, to enjoy an evening of music, food, games and fellowship. The Class of 2026 seniors also used the evening to present the annual senior class gift to Lindsey Wilson President William T. Luckey Jr. The gift, totaling $3,084, will go toward a campus beautification project. Senior class president Megan Whitson, an English and communication major from East Bernstadt, Kentucky, said she wanted to do something new and memorable for her class. "We were looking for something to do as a senior send-off," said Whitson, who received the 2026 President's Award at Honors Convocation on Tuesday. "We wanted it to be laid-back and relaxing, a stress reliever as we finish out the last week of regular classes. We hope it gets bigger every year and becomes a tradition." Lindsey Wilson's 123rd commencement will be held in three ceremonies May 1-2, in Biggers Sports Center, 360 Spickard Drive, Columbia, Kentucky.
