The Bond Between Us: Sydney, Peg Schaeffer's best dog 2013-02-17 - Sugarfoot Farm Rescue, 860 Sparksville Road, Columbia, KY - Photo by Flying Horse Photography/Todd Sutherland. The Bond between Us: There's a deep, deep bond between Sydney and the writer, Peg Schaeffer who writes: "This is a picture of Sydney, my best dog. I adopted him on December 1, 2002. He turned 12 in December, 2012. He is now totally blind and deaf but that doesn't stop him. He still uses the pet door to go in and out, knows where the food and water is, and will sit beside me while I eat or watch TV." - PEG SCHAEFFER Read More... | Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Gordon Crump, still living the life he wants 2013-02-17 - 104 Public Square, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. Gordon Crump, was in town yesterday, Saturday, February 16, 2013 for dinner with his son, Dennis, and daughter, Cindy. Crump, one of Kentucky's best ever journalist and writers, is still living the life he's always wanted. He claims to be a hermit, and enjoys life with everything he needs or wants in the Clay Ridge Community of North Adair County. But he's a sociable hermit, and freely shares his life knowledge with others. (See story: At 80, Gordon Crump proves you can live the life you want). He's written so much, it's hard to pick out a favorite, but JIM, the ultimate literary critic, thinks the story, "How I discovered Columbia when Columbus didn't" from this link: Gordon Crump: Some Day I must go back to Lindsey Wilson may be the best ever on ColumbiaMagazine.com and, without a doubt, the best ever about Lindsey Wilson College. - EW Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Summersville, KY 1890: The Louisville & Nashville Turnpike 2013-02-17 - Summersville, Green Co., KY - Photo from collection of Larry Smith. The buggy on the right is about to make a turn onto the Louisville & Nashville Turnpike, now known as Hodgenville Road, in Downtown Summersville, KY, leaving today's KY 323. The old Farmers' Bank is the two story brick building on the right, and the two story white building which also still stands, was the original Holmon Lewis Gen. Mdse. building. Summersville remains the only town in America where both Larry Smith, Operations Manager of FM 99.9 The Big Dawg, and Leon Lewis, owner of Jeffries Hardware in Columbia, KY, both grew up, the only Green County Community ever to have a drive-in theater - and it's still in operation; and maybe the only Green County Community with it's own college center, at Jacob Grove Baptist Church. \ Read More... | Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

New Book about Adair Co., KY: Death Comes Calling 2013-02-17 - Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. We just received a review copy of Jim Garner's new book, "Death Comes Calling." It's a fact packed, concise work and easy to read, covering the period with the lineage of the two funeral homes currently in Adair County. It's a must read not only for those in the business, but also for those interested in the reasons why their families historically have preferred one undertaker over another. We'll have more, later, while awaiting a review from a more competent source. We'll have information on how to obtain a copy, later, too. - ED WAGGENEr Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
