Breeding resident finds key embedded in tree as firewood split 2018-03-23 - Trifecta Print Design, 426 Wain Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. Chuck Woodbury, pressman at Trifecta Print Design, was splitting firewood recently and discovered something he'd never seen before, a key embedded deep inside the tree. He hasn't figured out how it could have gotten there, or what the key might open. "it couldn't have been a knothole where a house key was hidden - people do that," he said, "because knotholes don't close up. The wood was actually split in the edge of Metcalfe County, at his parents house on Shady Ridge Lane, and Woodbury wonders if anybody has a good theory on how the curiosity occurred, how the key made it there. Woodbury is a 30 year veteran of the printing business. He was a bindery/folder operator in Michigan before coming to Adair County, KY. - Ed Waggener. Thanks to Ralph Waggener for the news tip.
