Tractor slide injures Adair Farmer 2013-03-18 - Purdy Community, Adair County, KY - Photo by Joe Collins. The tractor involved in the Saturday afternoon, March 16, 2013 rescue of an Adair County farmer came to a rest in the edge of a woods. The missing skid marks have led to the theory that the tractor may have flipped to its resting place, making the rest of the story all the more remarkable, with the farmer's ability to climb by himself up a steep hillside halfway to the place from which the helicopter carried him to Lexington. The steering wheel was flattened and the seat was dislodged and straw on the lift joints suggest a flip, as well. Equally remarkable is that the time between the accident and the time the driver was in air to treatment at one of the state's tertiary trauma centers was approximately one hour, a time so short it would have been unthinkable in Adair County just a few decades ago.

Another future Tv Star from Adair County, KY? 2013-03-17 - Adair County, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. Joe Collins who is in the crude oil transport business with oil man Travis Coomer, says that "Kentucky Crude" the series which is expected to be on the Discover Channel very soon, is going to be an exciting series for South Central Adair County. Not only are some of the big names like Jimmy Reliford and Travis Coomer having big roles, but dozens of recognizable Adair Countians will be seen in supporting roles. Lots of familiar locations are being used, including, recently, a breakfast scene in Moore's Lunch & Pool in Downtown Columbia. He modestly admits that he himself may be one of the actors - and is accessible for autographs. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
