Gov. Beshear in Campbellsville, KY at the Big Dawg 2011-07-15 - 101 E. Main ST, Campbellsville, KY - Photo by Larry Smith. Gov. Steve Beshear was in Campbellsville, KY, yesterday evening, Thursday, July 14, 2011, and was interviewed by Larry Smith, Operations Manager for Shoreline Communications, on the network's Big Dawg Country Radio Station. Smith said that Governor is giving hope to Heartland Parkway supporters that funds are being found for the super road from the Bluegrass Parkway to Springfield, Lebanon, Campbellsville, Columbia, and Burkesville. Smith says that he was elated to get the news and to interview the Governor but was devastated that his fans and enemies who wanted to dunk him at the dunking machine could not do so, but that an opportunity to interview the Governor just does not come along this often, and his starring role at the Adair County Fair will have to come at a later time.

Larry Smith Collection: Celebration 1950s Lebanon, KY 2011-07-15 - Main ST, Lebanon, KY - Photo from Larry Smith Collection. Historian Larry Smith, in real life Operations Manager for Shoreline Communications, shares this photo from his collection. It's a scene from the 1950s, he's been told, showing a huge crowd on Main ST in Lebanon, KY. He pointed out the old signs, no longer there, including Louis & Dick's Cafe, and the Corner Drug Store building. He was just a little baby boy when the photo was taken, but even if he had been able to go, his parents would not have let him, in those days. "Children from Green and Taylor Counties were forbidden to go to Lebanon in those days. They had beer there." Lebanon is still wet, but it is no longer an oasis town. Alcoholic beverages are served legally, and quite discreetly, in Campbellsville in Taylor Co., and Greensburg has just voted one precinct wet. Far from being a sin city oasis, today Lebanon is considered a model, progressive city - a laboratory town others to emulate. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Whitehurst Diaries: Field of Corn 2011-07-15 - Old Gradyville RD, Columbia, KY - Photo by Sharon Whitehurst. This year Jim leased the acreage which in 2010 he seeded to orchard grass and white clover. A cool rainy May delayed planting, but the corn is off and growing - a handsome sight. -Sharon Whitehurst Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Whitehurst Diaries: Queen Anne's Lace 2011-07-14 - Old Gradyville RD, Gradyville, KY - Photo by Sharon Whitehurst. I wandered around the farm this morning, always looking for something beautiful or quirky. Queen Anne's lace has leaped to waist height [my waist, that is] since the hay-making last month. There is a gentle slope behind the tobacco barn and when I looked back it seemed awash in frothy white. Going down on one knee with the camera gave me a photo which makes me wish I could paint. - Sharon Whitehurst Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
