Artist Karen Roland writes, "I saw where there will be a plant swap of garden plants at the Trabue Russell House in September (the 19th at 9amCT). I did this plein air painting in July and met the hard working gardener, Mary Ann Loy. I am sure some of the babies of these plants will be available for adoption." Find Karen Roland on Facebook.

Yvonne Marshall likes going to church in person 2020-09-09 - Adair County, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. Church is better in person according to Yvonne Marshall who tried hard to attend on the Internet but finds it's just not the same.

Closer look at the puffball 2020-09-09 - Adair Co., KY - Photo by Larry Clark. Larry writes, "Since I pass by this place most every day I've watched these puff balls grow in this spot for several years. This year is the biggest fairy ring so far. Notice the greener ring of grass. The mushrooms grow in the outer part in the green ring. These fairy rings have fascinated peoples since ancient times.
