Maybe now is the time for action on the Evelyn West statue to be placed in New Columbia/Bliss!! And, we could face it in the direction of Sparksville/Breeding.

A center courtyard in the new shopping center, with floral gardens surrounding the statue, may be our best option. Who knows, this might inspire Victoria’s Secret to located their new store here.

Just a little fun but thought of her again when I saw this book featuring "famous" Adair County residents on e-bay.

Thanks and Happy Adair Country Fair Week!! - Doug
