Road soon to be renamed, locations renumbered
 2012-07-02 - The Flatwoods, Adair Co. District 3, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. The red truck is on what is now Burkesville Road but as soon as new numbers are designated for locations along the road, the addresses will be Wheeler Hill Road. Just beyond the red truck, field, and tree, paving equipment is busy at work on KY 61 South. Adair County 911 Addressing and Mapping Coordinator said that a number of new and renamed roads already have new names and new street numbers in use, including Lookout Road, Breakaway Road, Stotts Lane, and Goldenrod Lane. Wheeler Hill Road is the longest stretch of highway to be renamed in the last set.

Downed tree off KY 206 from storm July 1, 2012
 2012-07-02 - KY 206, Adair County, KY - Photo by Jackie Blankenship. Jackie Blankenship sent this note and photo from the July 1, 2012 storm: "Downed tree off 206 from last night's high winds. The top of the tree is now laying well over the embankment and it crushed the perimeter fence in that section," - Jackie Blankenship. The damage was on the Blankenship property, on Clifty View Road, off Liberty Road just east of WAIN radio tower, and not far from the site of the wind strewn memorial flowers at Haven Hill Cemetery. -CM

Stop means Stop: It's dangerous to overthink messages
 2012-07-02 - Breakaway Lane at KY 61 South - Photo by Ed Waggener. Stop means stop here, despite the qualifier sign which may have a motorist thinking, temporarily, "I'm the cross traffic. I don't stop," when in fact, the ambiguous term "Cross Traffic" will be talking about the heavily traveled, often at extremely high speeds, traffic on KY 61. For those of us with slower processors, it can take a few seconds to figure out what the sign means. This sign faces traffic on Breakaway Lane, the short KY 768 road from Wheeler Hill Road (formerly Burkesville Road) to the new KY 61. Looking across, upper left, is the newly named Lookout Road, formerly a part of Antioch Church Road. Local philosopher/engineers think this will be the most dangerous intersection on the new stretch of KY 61 South, which should open in the next few weeks - awaiting the word from local Democrat shot-callers: Miz Victoria Pike, Junior Stotts, and/or R.L. Walker. - EW

Poetry by Robert Stone: Doing yet enough
 2012-07-01 - City flag over Burkesville Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. Doing yet enough - a sonnet of choosing rightlySome love the new too much and some the old. Do not despise the tattered, torn, and frayed that speak for those who fearing hurt yet bold proved they of sacrifice were unafraid.
Some choose the easy way and some the hard. Do not deride the never finished frills that story tell of those who have been scarred yet will not lose the loves of early thrills.
Some take the gentle path and some the rough. Do not condemn the steady, slow, and sure that say through those who doing yet enough avoid excess and triumph will endure.
Some thoughtless grasp the hard won hope that frees, ignoring all responsibilities.
- Robert Stone, 1 July 2012
