Glory Days for Catalpas 2015: An album Three photos to start, at 7:07amCT, Tue 2 Jun 2015 As a favorite season peaks, we're collecting this year's catalpa pictures into one album. There will be time to link additional submissions in the next three or four days, maybe as long as a weeking, owing to the traffic load. For now, there are several. It's hard to say where in the 7-County area of Adair, Casey, Cumberland, Green, Metcalfe, Russell and Taylor Counties of South Central Kentucky the trees are the prettiest. Quickest to come to mind is the unofficial Catalpa Trace, Columbia to Cane Valley to Coburg/Tampico-on-the-Pike, Ireland to Campbellsville, Campbellsville Street/Campbellsville Road/New Columbia Road, KY 55 between Campbellsville and Columbia, soon to be the magnificent gateway, Heartland Parkway. That just comes to mind first. Contrary opinions will be graciously tolerated. - ED & LINDA 2015-06-02 06:45:31 | Comments | Printable version
