Bear shared, started research into CM archives

2020-07-12 - Cumberland County, KY - Photo by Mark Upchurch
Gale Cowan, Adair County Judge Executive, spotted and shared the picture with this comment from Mark Upchurch in Cumberland County, “The things you see on the way home from work. This was just outside of Burkesville on HWY 61 north. Just beyond the new bridge. He/she appeared to be hot … panting to cool.”
When Judge Cowan invited me to her site for Fiscal Court activity reports, this discovery prompted a dive into the archives of ColumbiaMagazine.com for the official Columbia Blue Ribbon Bear Board. Clicking 'read more' takes you to the announcement of the initial organization in 1996. - LW

The business of recycling

2020-07-12 - Wayne County, KY - Photo by Mary Ellis
Mary Ellis shares a story she did for her home newspaper, the Wayne County Outlook, one year ago. She says that from unsorted recyclables to a belt line, to aluminum cans, to shredded bales of paper, cardboard, plastic bottles and milk jugs... recycling is a big business. This picture shows some of the work area where sorting is done.
