NORTH 61: Writer worries about intersection design To ColumbiaMagazine.com: Since we are discussing South 61. I would like to talk about the section of North 61 that has just been completed.

SOUTH 61 ISSUE: John BAM Carney says situation is a shame To ColumbiaMagazine.com: I have followed the comments of all sides on the cancellation of the KY 61 project, which would have completed the Adair County road to from the parkway to Sparksville.

Comment: Tobacco harvest scene at Knifley, KY About: Harvesting tobacco, Knifley, KY ColumbiaMagazine.com: This picture touched me in a way that not many would understand. Not only is it a beautiful picture, it is a part of my past that I miss everyday. During our tobacco growing days I couldn't wait to get to the age where I didn't have to do this anymore. Now, what I would give to have one day back with my dad, mom and three brothers in a tobacco field. So many times we don't realize the memories that are being made until years later. Thank you and Linda for listening to me, especially when I am missing my youth and my home. s/Paula Ball 2008-10-07 02:10:23 | Comments | Printable version Birthdays and Anniversaries for October 7 Happy Anniversary, Ryan and Julie McQueary (1999) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Adysen Jewell Wooley (2009) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Blake A.
