Friendly orange cat lost or in need of good home 2021-01-09 - Columbia, KY - Photo by Phil Hanna. Update from Phil Hanna -- the orange cat has found a new forever home! This very friendly orange cat has been hanging out in the parking lot of the aparment building at 800 Page Street Some of us have been feeding it but it is looking for food in the dumpster. It very much wants to come in from the cold. He is very friendly and trusting, loves attention and is purrs nicely; He seems to have lived among humans in the recent past. He seemed to be completely at home when I let him in for some food. If you are missing your orange cat, this one may be yours; if you are looking for a friendly, people oriented cat, let's see if we can find it a home. Call me if you are interested and mayby we can find it a home. --Phil Hanna, 270-384-2894 or 270-634-2359 Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Back at the Stacie Bennett Place, Adair County, Kentucky 2021-01-08 - Adair Co., KY - Photo by Robert Ellis, Robert Ellis Woodworking.com. Robert writes, "I like to stop in at Stacie's place from time to time to see what new collectibles he has displayed. Took the image back in November, and it's 'heavy' handed at the post processing for sure. Sometimes it's fun to play around with an image an improve the scene by giving it a vintage look, especially when you start with an old gem of a truck as the centerpiece!"
