Scenic Taylor Co., KY: Snowy Sunday night on Main Street



2014-02-09 - Main Street, Campbellsville, KY - Photo by Larry Smith, The Big Dawg, 99.9 FM radio. Outside the Big Dawg 99.9 FM Studio a few minutes ago, Main Street was a winter wonderland. This scene is looking east, with David Nunnery's law office to the lighted clock on the tower on the Taylor County Judicial Center. Don't know whether this is a school stopper or not, yet, but the roads are slippery. We did get unconfirmed reports of cars sideways on Muldraugh Hill. I'll keep you posted if there are changes in school schedules tomorrow. Larry Smith, FM 99.9 the Big Dawg and FM 92.7, the WAVE

Victoria Pike remembers Mr. George as dear friend of her father

Visiting Lebanon, KY, as a child, was always a treat
Comments re photo 53486 Historic Marion County Club 68 Jerry Lee Lewis on marquee

by Victoria Pike

I barely remember this far back. I was born March 17, 1960, but as a small child we visited my Uncle Allen and Aunt Christine Browning who just lived up the street from this famous location.

Did you happen to notice what was under the sign? I loved to go down and talk to Mr. George's bears that were on display in the cage under the sign. I think, I was around five years old.<>BR>
Visiting Lebanon was always a treat. I don't think I was ever allowed to get in the cage with them but they were always the highlight of our visit.

I can't remember much about the rest of the establishment at that age but will never forget visiting Mr. George and the bears. He was a dear friend of my father. - Victoria Pike

Frackophobia & the Super Bowl Squares Office Pool Blues

With a quote from "The Most Interesting Man in the World," ad for Dos Equis beer: I don't usually play Superbowl office pools, but when I do I prefer to play squares drawn by the Pittsburgh office rather than the New York office, J.R. Brower (plain old Jackson Brower in his hippie days at Barnett's Creek, when he was still, like many CM readers, a righteous Tree Hugger - you didn't have to ask: He drove the VW bus) sends this Frackophile column, with a note, "This is cathartic writing, in the style of Hunter S. Thompson. Some of the names of the Chicago 7 are purposely incorrect for the sake of humor and to draw comments. Reader feedback is appreciated as well, of course. Stay warm, my friend." (A note: We try to open the pages of CM to anyone. across the whole spectrum - tree hugger or no - but especially those who haven't completely forgotten their roots and remember the 60s, the Summertown/Pellyton axis, Clean Gene McCarthy, the genius of Max Shulman (and anticipated the genius of John Kennedy Toole}, and Gonzo journalism as practiced by that great Kentuckian, Hunter S. Thompson- we think Jackson Brower does.) There something in here to both please and offend lots of folks. ED - still a Tree Hugger, but maybe not quite as righteous about it as I should be.

Personal opinion of the writer

Chapter 1 of The Wayward Pennsyltuckian

This is a true story. The names have been changed to protect the innocent. I was once not so innocent, but that, dear reader, is fodder for another chapter.

Jackson Brower: Memories of the old Baptist Church in Pellyton

This is the old Baptist Church. It was right across from the lane that went down to Clyde & Christine Gensert's place. We met Clyde and Christine down at The Farm near Monticello, and they asked us to join up with them in Pellyton.

Happy Tail: Punxsatawney Kelsey

When Peg Schaeffer made the trip to Punxsatawney, it was to take an Amish family from Gradyville there because of a death in the family. Kelsey, her miniature Aussie mix went along. Pop Yoder of Gradyville made the return trip, and he, of course, made special moments. Though it's a long way from Adair County, Peg Schaeffer highly recommends the trip.
Next earlier Peg Schaeffer column: Happy Tail: Tasha, tougher than nails Posted February 2, 2014.

By Peg Schaeffer

Last Sunday was Groundhog Day and sadly Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow which means 6 more weeks of winter. (I've seen jokes posted of poor Phil in the stew pot.) The appearance of Phil's shadow means winter will extend well into March. According to folklore had Phil not seen his shadow, it would have meant spring is around the corner. Since the Groundhog's first prediction in 1887 (through 2013), Phil has seen his shadow 100 times and not seen it on just 17 occasions.

Carol Perkins: Getting older brings return of childlike things

When I looked down at my feet, I knew something was wrong. "Guy, do you see anything wrong with this picture?" I asked.

He just shook his head. I had my boots on the wrong feet. I blame the zippers. Not a regular wearer of boots, I was confused about whether the zippers were on the inside or the outside. The outside seemed the appropriate place for a zipper, but obviously I was wrong.

Sunday reminder: Most read story from Saturday

Story 2-in-1: 1) Launch of William Burton's latest enterprise, and 2) Occupants of new Grider Properties may represent the biggest boost to Adair County economy in recent times. It's recommended reading for those who may have missed it earlier. CM should be among the first to announce the full details in a few days. Things are looking up. - EW

By far the most read story yesterday was New Columbia business makes history Saturday morning; it only hinted at what very well could be the biggest Ecoonomic Devleopment project in years - bringing new jobs to Columbia in a big way. It's the work of a team which is almost a private Board of Trade in iteself.

John Cox photo, W of Yellowstone, resonates with Bill Troutwine

It was his work area while Bill Troutwine was Sheriff of Petroleum County. 'It is absolutely some of the most beautiful real estate on earth,' he says.

Bill Troutwine writes:
The instant I saw this photo I got a choked feeling and a sad feeling in my heart. I instantly recognized the area in the photograph. It is along the Gallatin River, just north of West Yellowstone near where highway 191 enters back into Yellowstone Park.

For five years, and prior to me being appointed as sheriff of Petroleum County this was my work area. I regularly patrolled through this area. My patrol area was from West Yellowstone and the Wyoming border north through the ski resort of Big Sky continuing north to the town of Gallatin Gateway. This area is referred to as the Canyon Area it is absolutely some of the most beautiful real estate on earth. While seeing the photo made me a little sad it also brought back some of the most wonderful memories of my life. Thanks so much for the wonderful photo. --Bill Troutwine
