Letter: When Cumberland froze over at Defeated Creek About Rivermen of the Cumberland: Chapter 5 Ed, I am enjoying Rivermen of the Cumberland. The new episode is the part of the river I know most about -- from Carthage to Nashville. My father grew up not far from the river in Trousdale County and I live not more than ten miles south of the river. Last year (maybe two years ago) I went to a wedding, outside, near the water's edge at Defeated Creek Marina. In the year I was born, 1940, the Cumberland froze over. I believe I have heard the story of my father's driving across the ice between Carthage and Hartsville. s/Robert Stone Thanks.

C-J story says KY 61 project in Adair County is killed BLACK MONDAY Adair County's economic development has been dealt a serious blow, according to a story by Tom Loftus in this morning's Courier-Journal online which says that the KY 61 Project from just south of the Louie B Nunn Parkway to Sparksville has been cut.The story, "Transportation Cabinet cuts Adair County highway project/Prather: There's not enough money for it" Note: The link is working today, Monday, September 22, 2008, but may not work in the future.
