Expert Shoe Repair Service 2012-09-29 - 1849 Wheeler Hill Road, In The Flatwoods, Adair County, KY - Photo by Innocent Bystander. When a customer's expensive $12.95 Chinese manufactured shoe came unglued, Donovan Baker offered expert repair service. Using only the exact - no more, no less - amount of painters' blue tape and the level - to make sure the shoe was right - he bound the shoe and sole back together, good as new, almost as good as Shot Royse, Billy Bradshaw, or Mr. Lawless could ever do with a lot of fancy equipment. Mr. Baker charged 1950's prices - a dollar a shoe and offered to do the good shoe, too, for another dollar. The satisfied customer, to cheap to pay for aesthetics, declined. Just be forewarned not to debate him - Donovan has the disputational skills to make grownups cower. Just ask any adult who has tried to match wits with him. - CM Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Kentucky Color: Farmers Wreath 2012-09-29 - Adair County, KY - Photo by Billy Joe Fudge, Retired District Forester, KY State Division of Forestry. I came upon this "Farmers Wreath" recently while exploring in the far reaches of the Great Wooded South. This wreath is constructed from barbed wire but not just your run of the mill barbed wire. The barbed wire used in this wreath is known around these parts as Japanese barbed wire. Regular, American barbed wire is more humane, more eco-friendly. - Billy Joe Fudge Read More... | Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
