Barbee implement sale drew own crowd 2013-05-25 - S. High and Greensburg Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener. The huge estate auction now going on in Columbia has packed Downtown like few other sales in Adair County history. Passenger vehicles, both collectible and one Nissan Versa, sold this morning, followed by tractor and equipment items. Then personalty was sold with a break at 12pm noon for the sale of the beautiful old Alta Barbee Garnett House. In the afternoon, the personalty auction will resume. At this point, the antique farm equipment was being sold across High Street at the Patteson House, now owned by Chuck Rogers. The photo was taken from the vine shaded back porch of the Barbee Garnett House. Downtown is filled, but comfortable. Two restaurants are within walking distance of the sale and two food stands are open, one at the Farmer's Market on the Square, the other at the sale. Restrooms and seating are ample, as well. The weather is cooperating perfectly. The buyer of the house should be known shortly, though it's destiny, even then may not be known for some time.

A Rose Garden tour after dinner 2013-05-25 - OKCC, 2339 Campbellsville Road, Columbia, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener. Betty Ollestad's Rose Garden is beautiful this year.

McCormick-Deering Hay Baler with hit and miss engine 2013-05-25 - S High Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. It could be a museum piece: A piece which has drawn a steady stream of visitors is this old McCormick-Deering hay baler - not yet a 100 years old but soon will be - which is part of a big auction sale in Downtown Columbia today, Saturday, May 25, 2013. It's from the 1920s, and was owned by the late Joe Russell Barbee. The machine has a hit and miss engine. Unlike today's balers, this one was set up in a stationary position. The hay to be baled was fed from the platform on the left, and the machine baled the hay or straw into cubes bound by wire. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
