Bumper crop of catalpa beans 2013-09-15 - Along Town Creek, Columbia, Ky - Photo by Ed Waggener. There's a bumper crop of catalpa beans this year. Don't know of any practical use; haven't heard any demand for them at the farmers markets. They just seem to be hanging there, being pretty. Something I have heard a little bit of demand for: Pawpaws. Haven't seen ripe ones since being at the old homeplace. Does anyone know of any? - EW Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Preserving Campbellsville History: Old Willock Building 2013-09-15 - Main Street, Campbellsville, KY - Photo by Larry Smith, The Big Dawg. Nice to look at - This old building is over 100 years old and no one can figure out what it would be good for. After checking it would cost an enormous amount of money to bring it up to codes. Just an elevator alone would cost over a hundred grand. But in the meantime it's still nice to look at. The building is called the Willock building built by then business man Joe Willock around 1900.

The Changing Face of Fairground Street 2013-09-14 - 400 Block of Fairground Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. As site work continues on parking areas the face of Fairground Street is rapidly changing, with few reminders of the residences which once lined the road. The steps and retaining wall are vestiges of one of Columbia's memorable residences, the Hunn House, later the home of one of Adair County's most colorful entrepreneurs, Jim Walker Burton. The structure dominating the scene, center, is the Goodin Building, home of Lindsey Wilson's School of Nursing and School of Professional Counseling.
