Rotary breakfast kicks off Christmas in Columbia
2009-12-04 - Columbia Baptist Church - Photo George Kolbenschlag.
Columbia Rotary Club will begin serving at 6:30am at the Columbia Baptist Church. From left, Kaye Bowman, J.D. Zornes and Ted Caldwell mix biscuits for Saturday's Community Rotary Egg, Sausage and biscuit breakfast. They are using the renowned biscuit recipe created by Doctor of Biscuitry Emeritus Edgar Troutman who, with admittedly limited success, trained his fellow Rotarians before he retired as the event's chief biscuit cook. Although lacking the Troutman biscuit perfection, they are close and darned good. The breakfast will be served from 6:30 until 9:30 and tickets will be on sale at the door for $5. The Rotary Community Breakfast has become the traditional starting gun for Saturday's Christmas in Columbia celebration.

Parade fashion: Stay warm any way you can
2009-12-06 - Town Hill, Columbia, KY - Photo by Greg Thomas. People were staying warm any way they could last night at the 2009 Christmas in Columbia Parade Under the Lights. Greg Thomas caught this lesser photographer wearing a blanket on his head and a glove on his left hand. Nothing photographically happened at that point, as the right hand shutter finger was frozen permanently. For the next half hour, in place. Despite the bitter cold, the parade may have been the best.
