Signs of our times: The Detour 2015-06-10 - Intersection of KY 55 S & Columbia Bypass - Photo CM photo. Two weeks down, four to go. The Detour appears to be well marked at this location and many, if not most locations around town, two weeks after the intersection across town at Fairground Street & Campbellsville Street was closed, at 8amCT, Wed 27 May 2015 for a projected six week period - if exactly six weeks are needed the intersection will reopen on Wed 8 Jul 2015 - and that will be before Adair County schools reopen on Wed 6 Aug 2015 and well before the fall semster begins at Lindsey Wilson College on Wed 20 Aug 2015. - EW Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Favorite old photo: Know this vehicle? It's from the Way Past 2015-06-10 - Columbia, KY - Photo ????. When this photo was discovered, it brought to mind early days in Columbia, way back in the 60s (???) and how a great work of art was inspired by it, by one of Columbia's great artists. The artist's wife, on the left, nee an Adair County nee Helen Rosson. The dude on the right, the driver, was then an agent for a local utility outfit, and is now in business for himself.The rest of the story: Painting derived from photo Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Why CM was so good 9 Jun 2015 CM: Hailey, Ev were here 2015-06-10 - CM HQ, Columbia, KY - Photo by Granddad. If you noticed that the Tues 9 Jun 2015 Daily News edition of ColumbiaMagazine.com was far to superior to any others, it was because we had professional help. Hailey, above, was here and sublimated her own interests to those of the magazine, as did her older brother, at this time on work break for a birthday mission with his Mema, Linda Waggener. Hailey almost got us to Green River Animal Shelter to see the kittens and puppies, got just a bit anxious about the Hardscratch/Egypt bear, but insisted on another news foray which also didn't happen, to look for 'wolf-ses" out by Green River Lake. She was not particular about whether she saw one of the gray wolves or the Russian Red wolves reported there, and whose official purpose she was told, is to thin out the deer population. As always, the visit was cut far too short because Hailey had to get back to Shelbyville, to get in more practice time for going to pre-school, and Ev faces a short summer vacation packed with close-to-pro soccer. Older brother Graham let a visit to the Toyota plant in Georgetown trump a visit to Columbia. Grands are waiting that report. Probably a correct call on Graham's part - it was a huge day - but he missed a visit from Cousin Mitzi and her kid and uncle & aunt fascinating open air little red 2003 Pontiac Solstice. Just some background information internal happenings at CM. (Hailey and Ev's Dad, Pen, was here, and truth be known, he multitasked and posted so much that may have been the reason we ennjoyed CM so much.) - GRANDDAD, Ed Waggener. PS - An aside, during the day Hailey completed a story book about God, to trade to her Great Mema, Geniece Marcum, in exchange for a tea set. She would not read the manuscript to the rest of us.
