New Adair Countian seeks tips on best Christmas light displays

To ColumbiaMagazine.com:

We're some of those new Adair Countians (if we may be so bold as to claim the title) having moved in to the area in August. We love it here and wouldn't want to be anywhere else.

Seeing Terry Patton putting up his lights made us wonder where are the best places to go in the area to see Christmas lights this year? We'll be sure to go down New Concord Road, but where else can we go?

Thanks!

s/Greg Scott

First, from the tone of your letter, you very much are an Adair Countian, already, with no apparent need to attend the AC Assimilation Academy. As for the lights, Eldridge Dykes' 24,000 light exhibit on KY 900 2 miles west of Glens Fork is already up.



Last year, the biggest Christmas light show was at Garnettia Knifley's farm off Eastridge Cemetery Road (between Elkhorn Road and Speck Ridge Road). We haven't heard whether the display is up again this year yet or not.

The Square is being lit up with lights, and more will be added between now and Christmas in Columbia. If you've never seen Columbia's Christmas Parade under the lights, you're in for a a real treat. It is one of Kentucky's great Christmas traditions. Then, a drive around Columbia always gives pleasant surprises even to those who have been here for years.

We hoping that tips for you and for us will flow in to CM in the next few days, as well.

For an instant, random access to Christmas lights past, enter the word "Christmas" in the search box in the ColumbiaMagazine.com menu. There's a dazzling array of Christmas pictures there.-EW
