Mark Hale: Solutions found in Georgia to Bypass safety problem 2018-09-08 - Down in the State of Georgia - Photo By Mark Hale. Here is the fix for the Bypass/61 intersection. Works just like the Square. Both of these are in Georgia, but lots of states are doing this. It eliminates the need for stop lights and there are no left turns onto or off of the circle. Motorist coming on to the circle yields to those already on the circle. I've seen a bunch of them in heavy traffic and they work pretty well. This is a 100% fix for our problem at that intersection. Thanks. - Mark Hale. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Historic Conversations, by Chance, at FM2's 2018-09-08 - FM2 at Municipal Parking Lot, Campbellsville & Merchant Streets, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. It was the first meeting for Greg Coomer, left, of Columbia's Printing Creations, left, and Charles Marshburn, of Rollen Coomer Road fame, right. Glasgow Police Officer Tommy Corbin, of Columbia, KY, center, listened and learned, too, as Greg told newcomer Charles Marshburn about the history of the place he now owns on Johnson School Road, and more about his father, Rollen Coomer, about the area's standing as the home of the most inventive and hardworking people on earth (all within a 2.5 mile radius of the Henry Garnett residence, per Greg's first cousin, Jerry Compton of Circle R Fame) and about blue line stream statutes on ownership of streams). Charles Marshburn recalled, not so much the industry of the home owners on Johnson School Road, but their neighborliness, how, just after he moved to his home on Pettit's Fork of Russell Creek, he'd had a flat tire, and Darrell Loy and others just stopped, repaired the tire, and moved on. Rollen Coomer continues to visit his old homeplace. sometimes just driving over, sitting a spell in his truck, and remembering good times on Johnson School Road. Some people go to FM2 religiously just for the fabulous produce, plants, pumpkins, and prepared food. Others, and Tommy Corbin owns to being one of them, go for all that, but, more than that, to catch up on the real news of the week, told first hand, at unexpected encounters, like this one. - EW Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
