Knifley Pipeline Explosion: Paying tribute to heroes 2014-02-22 - 6029 Elkhorn Road, Knifley, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. Knifley is still taking stock of the nightmare visited on it this week when the Columbia Gas Transmission pipeline exploded with terrifying consequences. The story of the consequences of the event is ongoing. At this stage, at a post event news conference at the Knifley Fire Department, Knifley Fire Chief C.R. Drake stood out when as he cited the heroes of the night, the his fellow first responders from all over South Central Kentucky who came to the communities aid minutes after the 1:03amCT blast, which momentarily made one Knifleyan say he thought it was the end of the world. A huge story is that of a real hero - Chief Drake himself, who took charge of the disaster immediately and handled it with textbook perfection. At far right, Knifleyan B.J. Bray, Adair County Deputy Sheriff, whose first knowledge of the explosion came while he was in training in Richmond, KY, in a phone call to let him know that his family was safe in their home overlooking the blast area.

Knifley: A stellar history defending the USA 2014-02-22 - ACPL, 307 Greensburg Street, Columbia, KY - Photo Adair County Public Library files. Knifley, KY: A community which perseveres, has a stellar history of services in the defense of the United States of America. This photograph ran in a Columbia, KY Statesman newspaper of the 1970's. The clipping above is part of the "Knifley Community" folder in the Genealogy Department at the Adair County Public Library, of the men who returned to Knifley after World War II. There's an impressive number for a town which gave so many who did not return. - CM Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Favorite Old Photo: 101 E Main, Campbellsville, KY 2014-02-22 - 201 E Main Street, Campbellsville - Photo from the collection of Larry Smith. Communications in our history: The home of The Big Dawg, 99.9 FM, Shoreline Communications in Campbellsville, KY, has communications in it's history. This favorite old photo of mine, of the building in 1901, when it housed the old Enquirer newspaper. It's a reminder of the rich heritage in print journalism in Taylor County has - and of the heydays when Campbellsville was the focal point for printed news for several counties, when Jimmy Cravens created and so successfully ran the old Central Kentucky News. I love stories of all those old battling newsmen, like Cravens and Fred Burkhardt at Liberty, George Trotter in Lebanon, Andrew Norfleet, in Russell Springs, and Pete Walker and Ralph Roy Waggener (he's still at it!) in Columbia, who shaped and guided their communities and weren't afraid of the devil himself. They remind me of where hyperlocal radio is trying to be today. - Larry Smith, Operations Manager, Shoreline Communications Paired photo When Columbia had a daily newspaper Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
