Wildflowers of KY, ID Please: Five lavender petals, same color stamen
2017-07-02 - Ray Miller Road, N of Mt. Tussell Road, Knifley/Roley area, Adair County, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com photo(c).
A first time, quite delightful discovery for us. But haven't yet found the ID, after hours of searching. (We need an app). Linda photographed it on her birthday eve, Saturday, July 1, 2017. So if any knowledgeable Wildflower expert is ready with an ID, I'd be much oblige for the answer. - ED WAGGENER. Critter ID welcome, too.
Comments, conclusions:
- April Shepperd Flower with five lavender petals is Bell Flower
- Cynthia A. Meyer. Lavender flower looks like Rocket Larkspur

Wildflowers of KY: Uncommon Common Mullein at Pellyton, KY
2017-07-02 - Barnetts Creek Road, Pellyton, District 1, Adair County, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com photo(c).
This towering Common Mullein plant stood out amid the boundless beauty of Barnett's Creek Road Road on Saturday, July 1, 2017. It's a native plant, and gets mixed reviews as to its value except for its beauty. So far, we haven't found any connection to tobacco, though its relative appearance makes its appearance far more tobacco-like than rabbit tobacco. Paired photo
See also: Wikipedia Verbascum thapsus where one can learn that the plant is known for its hairiness and that it has a long list of names, including, "Poor man's blanket" and out west, "Cowboy's toilet paper." - EW

The Adair County Fairgrounds: More than a fair - an exposition center
2017-07-02 - Adair County Fairground, 413 Fairground Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Mike Watson, Adair County Historian.
The Adair County Fairgrounds has held a huge place in the lives of Adair Countians, if it were just for the fair events themselves. But it was more. Circuses, rodeos, tent revivals, local semi-pro baseball games, demolition derbies, were also held here, as Mike Watson, Adair County Historian, notes with this old Adair County News clip, from seventy years ago today. On that date, he writes, "There was much in the news, including the news at left, that the Circle M Rodeo would be at the Adair County Fairgrounds, Adair County News, 2 July 1947.
