Finally 2012-03-16 - Henry Co., Kentucky - Photo by The Feedman. The Feedman writes, "Located a mile or so outside of Smithfield, Kentucky on Hwy. 1861. I had been searching for this barn for over two years and this was my third trip into the Henry County area specifically to try to find it. If it looks slightly familiar to you, it should. The barn was featured in the 2008 Marine Corps recruiting campaign. The ad was run during the Super Bowl and had the Marine Silent Drill Platoon twirling their rifles with the barn as a back drop."

Scenic Adair Co., KY: Plum Point Baptist Church 2012-03-16 - 6107 Knifley RD, Columbia, KY - Photo by Emily Klingberg. The Artistry of Emily Klingberg quite magically draws out so much of what makes this little country church in Adair County so endearing, although it's not just a pretty place. Pound for pound, it packs a wallop, a huge impact for good through its social innovations, services, and and music traditions. Plum Point Baptist Church draws regular congregants from the nearby communities of Knifley (one of the counties larger communities without a United Methodist OR Southern Baptist Church), from as far away as south of Columbia and Roley in Adair County, with faithful members attending every week from as far away as Hardin County. Bro. Lewis Haynes is the pastor. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

The Sparksville Water tower in the Old Road, redux 2012-03-16 - Sparksville, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. A few days ago CM had a photo of this view without the 750,000 gallon tank in place. Now that it's up, and painted, this is the same scene. The lettering on the tank "Columbia/Adair County Water District" faces Weed-Sparksville Road. B.J. Fudge, a graduate of Sparksville Elementary School, thinks "Raiders," a memento of the school's fabled athletic achievements, should be on this tank, just as the townie's tank, at Holladay Place, touts the Blue Raiders of Lindsey Wilson College. "Sparksville, KY," might be nice too. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
