What can be done about the mass-a-cree of signs? 2018-06-30 - New Columbia, Adair County KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. Assuming this is an incident accident, it is still a too often seen scene around Adair County. In too many instances, missing signs are the result of opportunistic miscreants, who have created closely 'work which should not have had to be did'. Any ideas on how to counter the dangerous practice of mutilating, stealing, and destruction of the signs. Singaporean measures aren't called for - this is America - and some here remember WWJD. There must be an answer. - EW Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Flowers of Kentucky: Soybeans in bloom 2018-06-30 - Along an Adair County Byway - Kentucky - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. We snapped this photo across a field of Adair County Soybeans, taking a picture of a teensy-tiny little blossom almost as elusive as the mythical fern flower. For sure, those who are not as expert as we are now (yeah, right) might not have known there is such a thing. We've tried to read the brochures - though real farmers do not listen to our new genius. That's the problem around here: Nobody will listen to freshly minted 'experts.' You can see flowers in this proof of concept picture. As the picture was being processed, we also noticed the dried tendrils, and then looked into the edible parts of the miracle plant, which, now, we believe, is the most valuable row crop in the county. Didn't find a "tendril soup" recipe in a cursory search, nor have we discovered a practical use for dried soybean tendrils. Surely the original Americans had a nifty use for them. And, in fossicking around for a photo of bright white & green field of soybean flowers, we found not one. Hopefully, before the flowers on this crop are gone someone will share a detailed one, using the close-up setting, and tell us more about soybeans. (Did find soy chips as a snack product; never seen it on a restaurant menu around here, though) - Ed Waggener Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Barn in Adams County, Ohio - HORSING AROUND PART II 2018-06-30 - Adams County, Ohio - Photo by Robert Ellis . This is the farm that the "Horsing Around" pic came from. The lot fell in my lap to be the one to ask permission to take some pics of the barn/farm. Fortunately for us the owners were very nice and granted us full access to take all the pics that we wanted. As I was talking to the owner, another vehicle pulled in to seek permission to do some drone footage. The owners told me they get asked all the time for pic taking. This beautiful barn has an interesting past. The current owner is a descendent of the builder of the barn (great Grandson, I think?). The original barn burnt down in the 1920's (?) and this replacement was built mainly from stone and concrete. The bars in the windows came from the Adams County Courthouse. - ROBERT ELLIS.
