Kentucky Color: Think About It 2022-08-08 - Columbia, KY - Photo by Billy Joe Fudge. By Billy Joe Fudge I'm not a chemist but I know which one I want to lather up with!

Take that, HGTV! 2022-08-08 - Downtown Columbia, KY - Photo by Alexis Jennings. Before the pandemic, dreamers and futurists who long to see the most unique parts of Columbia's downtown heritage brought back to life took action.
