Lifesize figure points way to Paddle Adair launch 2015-05-30 - Townside of Russell Creek Bridge, Columbia, KY - Photo from the Deputy Adair County CJE. ColumbiaMagazine.com has received this iPhoto of a life size figure directing Paddle Adair participants and spectators to the launch site for Paddle Adair, a historic moment in Adair County history. The submission did not say whether is really Charles Grimsley, the father of Adair County Parks & Recreation Commission, a holograph (they can do that now), or an standup lifelike sign like teenage girls used to have in their bedrooms of Elvis or Eddie Fisher. For sure, anyone Lost in Columbia, KY, today will find their way because of this. Behind the figue on the left is Oak Street, one of the detours to Paddle Adair Launch. Behind the figure is the Long Orange Line, with the Shut Down Intersection of Fairground & Campbellsville Streets, where Burton's Station used to be. - CM.

Stage of Construction 29 May 2015: Long Orange Line 2015-05-29 - Campbellsville & Fairground Streets, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. After work was done for the day Friday afternoon, May 29, 2015, there was a deafeningly quiet time, so unusual for one of Columbia's busiest intersections, where thousands of cars usually pass each day. Instead of busy vehicular traffic and sidewalk, full parking lots and stores, there was stillness and orange, and a great ditch breaching the street and a very orange look with the barrels and netting lining the dig and huge orange track hoes guarding each end of the dig.
