Fourth of July Car Show (1 of 4)



2026-07-05 - Campbellsville, KY - Photo by Robert Ellis, robertelliswoodworking.com.
Robert writes, "The sweltering heat from the previous week had let up a little, so it was good time to travel over to Campbellsville University to photograph the car show. I find from a photographers standpoint it can be a little bit of a challenge, mostly due to the 'show cars' being positioned so close together...how to isolate and compose a shot; that part can be tricky.

This photo I was fortunate to have it isolated and pretty much all by itself. Here the owner is readying the vehicle with the usual hood and trunk lids in the up position for a more revealing presentation."

Where Stories Still Live: the Giles House

By Mig Feuser / The Adair Progress

The log cabin with the big pond at Spout Springs Road in Knifley welcomes visitors as the Janice Holt Giles Society enjoys its 2026 season. Located at 380 Spout Springs Road, the cabin will be open through September on Saturdays and Sundays from 1 to 4pmCT continuing a long-standing tradition of sharing one of Adair County's most unique literary landmarks.

For Keysha Tucker, who serves as president of the Society and caretaker of the property, the upcoming season builds on a strong foundation of community support and steady interest. "Good. Very good," Tucker said of last year's season. "We have at least five or six hundred people every year. And the 2025 festival was very good."
