Walkabout: Floating frost flowers, Clifty Creek 2014-01-28 - Clifty Falls Farm, Columbia, KY - Photo by Miss Donna Rieder. More frost flowers "floating" down a frozen Clifty Creek. I feel SO blessed to be able to go on walkabouts along the creek and take in the many wonders of Nature. Every day brings new wonders to behold. People need to slow down and take a good look around them, at the world they live in, and they too will discover little gems to enrich their lives . . . - Donna Rieder Read More... | Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Election 2014 - Joe Rogers, for Adair Co. Judge Executive 2014-01-28 - Columbia, KY - Photo Candidate photo. Vote for Joe Rogers for Adair County CJE Dear Citizens of Adair County, I would like to take this opportunity to formally announce my candidacy for the office of Adair County Judge Executive. I believe it is the responsibility of the County Judge and its staffs to represent the people of the county and their needs. Decisions made by the Judge Executive must be made without bias and with vigilant management of fiscal resources. The elected official must be committed to bringing new business and jobs to the county, while aggressively seeking solutions to financial deficits and managing current hospital issues. I believe the people have a right to know where their tax dollars are going and will hold the persons spending that money accountable for the decisions that are made. As a 1977 graduate of Adair County High School, I was involved in both football and track and was an active member of FFA and Fellowship of Christian Athletes. Following high school, I earned a degree from Lindsey Wilson College. As a property owner, with a passion for farming, I am a lifelong Adair Countian who is fully vested in the welfare of this community. I have been married to my wife, Sandy Ballou Rogers for 32 years and have one daughter, Cassie. After serving as Adair County's Sixth District Magistrate for many years, I feel that I am equipped with a unique knowledge of the position and dedicated to helping the county thrive. I am aware of the issues important to the people and am ready to address those issues head on. Finally, I am humbled by the support and encouragement I have received from the people of Adair County as I announce my candidacy for this important office. I will try my best to see as many of the people as I can, however, if I miss you, I apologize. I would like to take this opportunity to ask you for your vote and support in the May 2014 primary. Thank you, Joe Rogers Paid for by Joe Rogers Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Walkabout: Frost Flowers growing on thiin sheet of ice 2014-01-28 - Clifty Falls Farm, Columbia, KY - Photo by Miss Donna Rieder. These are "frost flowers" growing on top of a thin sheet of ice covering a puddle. The grass underneath the ice makes it look like they are actually real flowers when, in fact, they are ice crystals. Small air-holes where the grass penetrates the ice cause a temperature change which allows the ice crystals to form this way. Pretty cool, huh? - Donna Rieder Read More... | Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
