Despite damp, cool weather, crowds flocked to the Columbia square on Friday night to enjoy 2019's first "To the Nines" Friday. Brick and mortar shops were filled with people fortunate enough to find a nearby parking spot. Part of "To the Nines", sponsored by the Columbia-Adair Chamber of Commerce, is to encourage small, local businesses to stay open later and offer discounts and give-a-ways. With the exception of winter months, "To the Nines" will be held on the second Friday of each month.
These little sisters are the daughters of Kellis and Cali Booth of Columbia. Left to right, Raegan, Kennedy, Cadence, and Roxie.
Cali said, “We loved the energy of the first night! People weren’t just out to shop and go, but they were lingering, chatting, smiling. That makes it more than shopping and makes it an experience.” Comments | Permalink

Historic Spurlington Tunnel, from Taylor to Marion County

Here's another incredible view of the Spurlington Tunnel. The historic train tunnel sits on the Taylor/Marion County line and, at the halfway point in the tunnel, you go from Taylor to Marion County.
These days every historian is looking back, wondering why we didn't act to protect the tracks and the old rail line for tourism and other purposes. Could you imagine having Green River Lake and a railroad still in use with a booming economy? From an industrial aspect this would certainly be beneficial to Campbellsville, Lebanon, Greensburg and Springfield.
These days we still cherish the memories, but now several generations of people have grown up not knowing what is was like when we had the railroad and sounds of the train horns. Comments | Permalink
