Scenic Adair Co., KY: The G G G - three Gee's on basket 2012-08-17 - 500 Public Square, Columbia, KY - Photo by Old Coddger. Courthouse Spire: Decoration can be what we want them to be. Old Coddger writes: "I read the article where there is some concern as to the 6s on top of the old courthouse.

I can see where from the ground it does look like sixes, but when viewed closer, they can be seen as Gs, or maybe just a decoration. I really think it is the eye of the beholder. They can be what we want them to be "- OC. Thanks OC Almost everyone in the world thinks they are merely a decoration. But then, there are folks who see pornography in cloud formations. - CM Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
