The plan is all coming together for the Adair County Primary Center to open August 14, 2013 but, as Sandra Honaker of Branscum Construction Company, noted at the Thursday, July 18, 2013 regular Adair County School Board meeting, it's taking a carefully coordinated effort to do so, between her company and the contractors and the Adair County Schools administration, maintenance staff, and the staff and faculty of the newest elementary school. School starts in just 24 days from the date of this post. Clicking ReadMore accesses the full Adair County School Board report, posted Friday, July 19, 2013.

Kentucky Color - Virginia Creeper 2013-07-21 - Adair County, KY - Photo by Billy Joe Fudge, Retired District Forester, KY State Division of Forestry. Even though Virginia Creeper resembles Poison Ivy it is easily identified by its five leaflets since Poison Ivy has only three. Our forefathers often referred to it as 5 leaf Poison Ivy. Although I have never personally heard of anyone having an allergic reaction to Virginia Creeper the so called experts tell us that it is a possibility. - Billy Joe Fudge Read More... | Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Summersville Fun Day July 20, 2013: Here for the parade 2013-07-21 - Summersville, KY - Photo by Larry Smith, The Big Dawg. This classy 1955 year old Chevy 210 Coupe was here for the Summersville Fun Day parade. It was a great day in my hometown. Lots of memories, but there's something special about Summersville - it's one small town which keeps growing and changing. My old grammy, right, in the photo, is no longer a school, it's now the Green County Recycling Center. But Summersville people support our local businesses like the Lewis' General Store and new stores - even our own Dollar General; we still have great, growing churches, there's still a bank here, and you won't find a more patriotic community anywhere. - Larry Smith, Operations Manager, Shoreline Communications Read More... | Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
