Epicurean Kentuckian: Salad Bar a hit at Harvest Cafe 2015-01-11 - Harvest Cafe, 212 Public Square, Columbia, kY - Photo CM staff photo. After a full year of operation under the current management, and several directional changes, Harvest Inn has found a solid niche, offering immediate meals with its soup, and built to taste all you can eat salad bar, along with three minute service on custom made sandwiches. It seems to be one of the things Downtown Columbia was wanting all along. Owner Steve Chundy is very optimistic about 2015. The Downtown Dining scene is already looking good for the coming year. A Mexican restaurant is being readied for opening in a matter of days or weeks, and the anchor restaurant, Moore's Poolroom & lunch is thriving as never before. Who knows? Maybe this is the year for Columbia to get that top floor private club, like the Pendennis, a banquet/theatre/reunion hall on the second floor of the courthouse, that Korean restaurant we're all wanting. That's all CM has on its wish list. Maybe someone else has better ideas for this promising year. - CM Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Springfield, KY: Mural of President Obama 2015-01-10 - Springfield, KY - Photo by Larry Smith. This mural honoring President Obama is on one of Downtown Springfield's building. (Someone send me the address). What a difference in the respect due the President who saved the country from financial disaster. In Marion and Washington Counties, the talk is that he will go down as the equal of President Bill Clinton - maybe even surpass him, and that was before President Obama's popularity rose again to over 50%. Up there even compare him to President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who is right under Jesus in their esteem. - LARRY SMITH. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

(Winfrey) and Edith Chelf Beard (she was the daughter of the kate L.R. & Nettie Spurling Chelf of Knifley, Adair County, KY), aboard their houseboat on Dale Hollow Lake, fishing out of Sunset Dock, July 27, 1950. with a small catch of yellow catfish. Mr. Beard was the owner of Lyon-Beard Chevrolet-Oldsmobile.
