Only one in fashion, if AC Fiscal Court had been held in Spain 2014-08-13 - Adair Annex, 424 Public Square, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. This footwear was likely the only in the Adair Fiscal Court meeting which would have been stylishly modern - if the meeting had been held in Spain, where the sensible idea of asymmetry has found a foothold. It's also in keeping with a younger generation statement in hosiery. The feet belong to a known Democrat, whose private coordinator is Miss Victoria (aka Victoria Pike), another known Democrat. CM agreed to keep her initials, Cynthia Rowe, somewhat anonymous, though we endorse the concept and the boldness. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Papaw hidden under pile of stuffed pets 2014-08-12 - Shelbyville, KY - Photo by Pen. One would never in a thousand years guess who just buried poor Papaw in the world's biggest pile of stuffed animals. For Hailey and accomplice cousin Tillie, it was the most hilarious thing that ever happened - even funnier they thought a few moments later when even his face was covered. Papaw is maternal grandfather Ken Smith, of Flat Woods, Greenup Co., KY. Hailey's latest wisdom is when she prefaced a report to her father with, "When I was your age . . . " The little girl has been quite well received, both in the Smith clan and Waggeners, all of whom seem to like her right well - including paternal Grandparents Linda and Ed Waggener, Columbia, KY.
