Poem: When you come to the end of a perfect day Geniece Marcum, my favorite mother in law, found a yellowed newspaper clipping about some family things which she'd like to share: A veteran home manager of Michigan, who states most modern housekeepers are "soft and flabby" and that they "rush and flutter about getting nowhere fast," offers the following by the great Anon for the consideration of the domesticians of today:
100 Years Ago: A Brief History of Russell & Co Through 1910, Part 1 A Time of Great Optimism in Columbia, KY: 'The building towers above all others, and the glass front and the artistic painting make it very attractive. . . It is the largest and most conveniently constructed business house in South Eastern Kentucky and has been built at a great expense. It stands as a monument of honor to the owner and it is the pride of this town.' Click on headline for complete installment plus photo By "Jim" The biggest news in the News of March 23, 1910, appeared in a short entry near the bottom of the third column: "Russell & Co.'s formal opening is now on, and people in droves are flocking to the store. The display in all departments is very attractive. Their many box show cases afford an opportunity of displaying goods to the best advantage. Every body is invited to call to-day and to-morrow, there well be salesmen sufficient to wait upon the throng."

New Mexican Restaurant on Public Square, Columbia, KY See related, new photo posted after receipt of this letter: Daniel's Mexican Restaurant, 104 Public Square, Columbia, KY To ColumbiaMagazine.com: Just wanted to recommend a possible newsworthy item: Daniel's Mexican Grill has opened on the Square. A new restaurant for the community, paired with the need to revitalize the downtown area, should warrant a mention. I am sure everyone would be interested to know that it is open for business. The renovation to the building has drawn great interest, so I am sure that the actual opening would be equally as important. Thank You! s/Jennifer Hardwick 2010-03-21 16:19:01 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Food

Kentucky Color - Call home ET Bonus nuggets of information in this column: A neologism for ColumbiaMagaizine, sort of-ish never used here before, the real color of Dogwood flowers, and an imaginative look at dogwood buds, and a shocking revelation about dogwood "flowers." For next earlier Kentucky Color, see Kentucky Color: Crystals on Grider Hill Pass By Billy Joe Fudge Retired District Forester, Kentucky Division of Forestry A close-up inspection of Flowering Dogwood buds has titillated my imagination and brought to mind Hollywood's most famous Extra-Terrestrial. The species name for Flowering Dogwood is florida. For all of you folks out there who understood that Latin was a dead language and did not want to be a party to its resurrection in the hallways of high school, florida is Latin for flowering.

A Kindred Spirit: Personal Heroes - Erma Bombeck For the next earlier A Kindred Spirit, click on This I Know By Teresa Bell Kindred Nanahood.com During my teen years when I was struggling to figure out who I was and my mother was struggling to keep from strangling me, she often used someone else's words to express her thoughts and feelings. It wasn't uncommon for me to come in at night after being out with my friends and find either a Bible, or one of Erma Bombeck's articles on my pillow. If it was the Bible the passage she wanted me to read would be clearly marked. If it was Erma's column, "At Wit's End," it was usually clipped neatly out of the paper and placed smack in the center of my pillow.

Moss Jamestown, Russell Co., KY I will always remember my first attempt at a night photography. The excitement and challenge of pulling an image from the clutches of a great darkness. The planning hadn't taken long since I was familiar with the location even to the point of going there during the day and finding a parking spot that could easily be found in the dark. My small camera bag was packed with the essentials and the tripod was in the car waiting. I had even waked up before the alarm clock announced it was time to get at it. A day that was filled with great anticipation and possibler reward had begun. Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2010-03-21 03:17:25 | Comments | Printable version

Welsh," or "Another Angle," in the searchbox. The next earlier essay posted on ColumbiaMagazine.com is A birthday appreciation of an old friend: The Roebling Bridge at Covington By The Rev. Joey N.

Because of my father's job as a manufacturing company executive, my parents had several large parties a year for Dad's co-workers. On those occasions there was a table full of food in the dining room and a well-supplied variety of beverages in the den, including beer and liquor.

If so, we hope you'll drop him a line by email. Reader comments to CM are appreciated, as are emails directly to Mr. Hinman at: charles.hinman@sbcglobal.net By Chuck Hinman Shopping gone wrong I go on a crazy "lights out" shopping binge every now and then that I can't justify later and yet it seemed so reasonable at the time. Ever been there or done that? Last week without batting an eye I bought two pair of pricey shoes (I won't tell you the price) reasoning that not one pair of the sixteen pair of shoes on the shoe rack outside my clothes closet door are comfortable. I'm not rich but after 88 years I certainly deserve some decent-fitting shoes. Wsh!
