State of Construction Progress: CVS Pharmacy June 6, 2012 2012-06-07 - From Carrie Bolin Drive, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. The East Wall of the new CVS Pharmacy in the big lot bounded by Carrie Bolin Drive, Jamestown Street, and Russell Road is full height, and the wall in the foreground is taking shape, soon to block the view of Jamestown Street north from Carrie Bolin. The picture was taken late Wednesday afternoon, with a rare lull in traffic on Jamestown Hill. Only two cars were seen at the stop light. The road in the foreground appears, in the photo to be going into endless forest, but leads to Downtown Columbia. The photo was taken Wednesday, June 6, 2012. -Ed Waggener Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Cattle: Ankole-Watsui in Metcalfe Co., KY 2012-06-07 - Metcalfe Co., KY - Photo by Johnnietta Jessie. Mama Ankole Watsui, with baby, in Metcalfe Co., KY:I looked these cattle up on the internet. According to Wikipedia, the breed comes from Africa and was endangered but is flourishing now. They were imported to the US in the 1960s. The Ankole cattle were considered sacred and were used only for milk. They were also considered a sign of wealth with the kings owning the ones with large horns. The cattle were a startling sight spotted on a Yard Sale trip recently. - Johnnietta Jessie. Seen in the ColumbiaMagazine group on Flickr.
