By Ed Waggener
Traffic and parking. Enjoy Downtown Columbia and the shops in the Well Walk Quadrant of the Square this weekend. There's no court today, no school traffic through town. Town will be a good place to park your car, turn off the engine, and just watch the traffic go by, the way folks used to do in Columbia, for better entertainment than they can get today on satellite. To check future Adair County Court docket, click on Kentucky Court of Justice or Go to Quick Links.

Fall color: Many of the trees are at a wonderful peak of color. Early morning colors are dazzling. A red maple on Burkesville ST, south of the Tutt ST intersection, is blood red right now, and is brigher than Christmas lights, viewed throughout the daylight from the other side of the sun.

A drive on down KY 61 to Flatwoods, Sparksville, Toria, and Breeding in the late evening is a fall paradise, with backlit trees at every turn. If you go to the Tabernacle Christian Church reunion, you're in for a big treat, especially if you take shortcuts through LIttle Cake or Neat Hollow Road, and take the time to see the spectular fall scenes at Pellyton/Ellistown and Barnett's Creek/Caldwell Ridge and Dunbar Hill above Knifley.

Maybe, along the way, someone will share a taste an Adair County pear with you, as Joe Russell Barbee did for Russell Holmes and me yesterday as we waited for the Lindsey Wilson Homecoming Parade to pass by our personal reviewing stand in the old First Realty Real Estate lot. Homegrown. Bettern any in the store. Not enough of the pear trees are maintained anymore; but the shared ones to evoke intense memories of other days, when Miss Hattie Eubank's pear tree supplied Jamestown Hill kids, at about the same spot as the Franklin Nissan sign is today.

Contributing local arts critic Edwin Taylor gives a thumbs up to the Dream Depot, which he says is another of Columbia's best kept secrets. He got a front row seat to see Machismo last night. "We go to Barn Lot Theater (Edmonton), a lot. It's great, but the Dream Depot may be better," he said. The Machismo performance was outstanding, Councillor Taylor said. The performance was the second sell-out in a row for the ensemble.

Sunday, October 22, 2006 Election Countdown: The fall election is just 16 days away, from today. This past Friday, October 20, 2006, the Republicans had a big rally, with some 250 people packing the VFW Hall to hear House Minority Leader Jeff Hoover fire up the party faithful. And last night, Breeding Volunteer Fire Department held Adair County's equivalent of Fancy Farm, with stump speakings by candidates for county offices and judge candidates, Absentee voters can vote by machine in the County Court Clerk's office, weekdays. You've got less than one week, until 4:00pm CT, Wednesday, October 27, 2006, to file a declaration of intent as a write-in candidate (not less than 10 days before election). To check other election dates, call or visit the office of Adair County Court Clerk Ann Melton in the Adair County Annex building, or to see the election calendar online, Click Here

Scenic Adair County: Flock guardian on Neat Hollow Road



2006-10-22 - District 1, Adair County, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener.
THE BEAUTIFUL GUARD DOG almost hidden in this herd of goats on Neat Hollow Road is a Great Pyrennes, a breed which is becoming more popular in Adair County. Be forewarned, though Great Pyrennes can be friendly to strangers if the stranger is in the company of the dog's master, it can be a frightening experience to approach the dog or its goat family otherwise. Neat Hollow Road connects Ella, on KY 206, with Little Cake, on Little Cake Road.

JOE RUSSELL BARBEE, left, came prepared for the Lindsey Wilson Homecoming Parade, which started a bit past 10:30am CT, Saturday morning, with a homegrown pear, peeled with a pocket knife. He and Russell Holmes, right, had prime parade viewing spot, facing Campbellsville ST from the temporarily vacant Adair Justice Center site, from the comfort of their vehicles. For Holmes the drive was just over one block from his home. He left his cell phone behind, and experimented with a home mobile one, but found he was out of range.

2006-10-22 - Trinity UMC Family Life Center - Photo By Ed Waggener.
LANI MUNDAY was in the spirit of the season with a bright fall orange blouse with golden appliqued leaves. She's shown here at the Trinity United Methodist Church's UMW's fall ham breakfast fund raiser, Saturday, October 21, 2006. In addition to country ham, the breakfast offered sausage, bacon, scrambled eggs, thickened gravy, homemade biscuits, fried apples, and plenty of OJ, milk, and hot coffee. A good crowd of candidates, fellow Methodists, and just plain hungry people. The breakfast is an annual event presented the womenfolk, and is a counterpart to the menfolk's Spring fish fry.
