Adair County Fairgrounds: 1884 Building almost ghost now 2017-02-09 - Adair County Fairgrounds, 413 Fairground Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, Columbiamagazine.com(c) . The "1884 Building" at the old Adair County Fairground is almost at a stage to be called a "Ghost Deconstruction" in a bizarre way related to the "Ghost Reconstruction" interpretative buildings seen in McCreary County at the old Blue Heron #18 Coal Mine. We haven't heard what will become of the valuable old timber in the building, but wouldn't it be nice if such buildings could be reconstructed at a place like Homestead on Green River. It's not a new idea. The Chowning Family allowed the old Morgan School on KY 704 to have an extended life, rebuilt in the Dr. Schickel Community Park. - Ed Waggener Apparition photographed 3 Feb 2016.

Scenic Russell Co., KY: Springlike shadows on S curve 2017-02-09 - KY 3281, Russell County, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com photo(c). Taking KY 3281 from near the Amaranth mansion on US 127 in Russell County, one passes some of the most wonderful countryside anywhere. This scene is one of those beckoning S curves reaching for the crest of a hill, raising curiosity about what is on the other side. Even as early as February 3, 2017, when this picture was taken, the grass was green, the verges green, foreshadowing one of the best times of the year to explore the area, not too many days off, when those vast fields of daffodils come in bloom in Russell County. - EW.
