Nifty photo of flying Asian Carp from KY Fish & Wildlife 2018-07-25 - Kentucky Lake - Photo from Kentucky Fish & Wildlife. A fisherman is either tossing an Asian Carp to a receiver on shore or vice versa, in one of the Asian Carp containment efforts.

Nap time for new arrivals at Miss Vicky's Pampered Angus Ranch 2018-07-25 - Miss Vickys Pampered Angus Ranch, Adair County, KY - Photo by Victoria Browning Pike. Babies taking a nap: "While filling sprayer, for a cocklebur extermination, I’m watching two precious baby Pampered Angus enjoying a sunny afternoon in the Flatwoods community. Not a care in the world or an idea that New Columbia is right over the rise. . . then back to work - sprayer is full once again. Cockelburs to be eradicated before they get in the girls tails." - Victoria Browning Pike, (Multi-tasking at Miss Vicky's Pampered Angus Farm, while plotting to get the perfect venue for a big Democratic Party rally coming up, sharing the idyllic life in Greater Bliss/The Flatwoods/New Columbia, the Double Rainbow capitol of the world.)

Epicurean Kentuckian: FM2 Onion, Diced Chicken & Farm fresh Eggs 2018-07-24 - Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. Just two easy to clean skillets were needed to make this dish, and one was used to coarse dice the last of an Adair County grown tomato - the real star of the start of the day. Ingredients, besides tomatoes: Sweet-as-apples Black Dog Farm onions. diced chicken, swiss and cheddar cheese, porch side basil and a sprinkle of five sprigs of rosemary from Coview Farms plant, brought on cooked shrimp, farm gathered eggs from a friend who has a friend who is foundering the friend with eggs, dried onion for flavor, flax meal for flavor and fiber, two tablespoons of whipping cream, real dairy butter, and very tiny amounts of spices: Cayenne pepper, curry powder, coarse black pepper, basil flakes, turmeric & paprika. The coffee? Good enough. Not up to Patty's, but good enough. It tasted better on Noritake china from Lany Bray, in Columbia, new 49 years ago. No match for the lamb roast from FM2 Maury Lewis had us drooling over, but poor-folks delicious. We gave a thanks for the Creator, life in Columbia, our well mannered, grateful cat Blue, J.O.Y. Ministries and all the things which make us wonder why any South Central Kentuckian would live anywhere else. - EW Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Heavy rains from Friday night's storm revisited 2018-07-24 - Downtown Columbia, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. I thought this massive rain, from among the photos of the Friday evening storms, was worth sharing for the record even though we've gotten back to good summer weather. The July 19, 2018 storms that brought this kind of rain totals, hail as big a golf balls, damaging winds, thunder and lightening, were plenty of storms for now, thank you. - LW Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
