Memento of the 1909 Adair County Fair 2015-07-07 - Adair County, KY - Photo a local anonymous collector. I thought it might be interesting for folks to see what it cost for a season ticket to the Adair County Fair 106 years ago: $1.30. Inside this cover there was a ticket stub, which read, "Not transferable. Admit" and then a blank for the name of the ticket holder. This one belonged to Luther Grider. On the back of the folder there, apparently used for a notepad, was this penciled inscription: "19 Broadway 1225 B. Moellers Rest. Second Street." Maybe a reminder of two addresses while whoever owned the ticket at the time was visiting Louisville, KY (?). Any comments are welcome. - Anonymous owner for the not-for-sale keepsake Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Kentucky Color: Venus 6 Jul 2015 2015-07-07 - from Greenhills, Columbia, KY - Photo by Billy Joe Fudge, Vice President, Homeplace on Green River. Venus brightly shinning through my neighbors Water Maple tree is a welcome sight after all the rainy and overcast days and nights. Jupiter was there also but it is just to far from the Sun and Earth for me to pick up with my phone camera. The lights underneath Venus are a street light and neighbor's lighted windows. - BILLY JOE FUDGE Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
