Ambitious performances may propel Hardscratch performer 2011-12-31 - Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. He may already be there: Ken Hill, has his sights set on eclipsing a man who is one of Kentucky's best re-enactor's - some locals would say the best - Mr. Richard Phelps, pictured above, right, in one of so many figures from history the actor becomes for audiences. Elder Z.T. Williams, left is but one of a multitude of history's heroes Mr. Richard Phelps portrays. Within the theatre community, high accolades are being reported for the actor from the Village of Hardscratch, but whether, as an actor he can be accorded the title "Mr." - for an American superior to being a "Sir" on the British stage - or not is not a duty taken lightly by the drama editorial staff at CM.

Col. William Casey, Nathan Montgomery Jr., in pig hunt 2011-12-31 - Greater Bliss, Adair County, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. A somewhat dejected Colonel William Casey, right, after stepping out of time, stepped through the gate ahead of Nathan Montgomery, Jr. after searching the overgrowth around the branch in a thorough but futile search for the pot bellied pig. As will be remembered, the two have twice ridded the county of the infamous Pelham Brothers just since October: First in their Silent City performance in the Columbia City Cemetery, and most lately, when they gave an encore performance at which, Colonel Casey outdid even the great actor Read More... | Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Search for missing pig thrusts into middle field 2011-12-31 - Pike-Browning Spread, Bliss, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. Despite frailties and sinus suffering, Miss Victoria braved a blustery winter day to search for the pig reported at large, driving through on a windshielding survey. She's stopped, above, while her mother opens a passageway. She had been worried the pot bellied pig would be large enough to break down fencing, and was relieved to learn, instead, that the little pot bellied is just a 40 pound pet, wondering somewhere, most likely, between the country club, The Flatwoods, or the Walmart store. Now, everybody's concern is more for the pig, now a frightened little fellow, and its distraught humans, Craig and Stephanie Feese.
