Magazine, the print version, we ran a story about the bypass need for Adair County. It was obvious then, it is obvious now, that the the most important bypass remains the lowest cost one of all - the bit over 2 miles of Parkway from KY 55/KY 551 to approximately the 51-52 mile marker on the Louie B. Nunn Parkway east of Columbia. At the time, the Kentucky Highway Department estimated that it would carry 60% of the traffic then fed onto the Public Square, versus the 40% headed west.

Kentucky Clouds: 29 Jun 2015 - Impending Storm Album Click on headline for item with another Kentucky Cloud Album, this one Impending Store, 29 Jun 2015 George Kolbenschlag matches, in his huge catalog of classic landscapes, some spectacular scenes in Kentucky Clouds to match his spectacular scenes in the Rocky Mountains. Somehow, this obvious parallel he never speaks about, but is worth noting. It is especially comforting for those of us who seldom travel out-of-state, much less to foreign countries, for fear we'll miss something better happening right here. Monday, June 30, 2015, was a red letter Kentucky Cloud Day, which Dr. Kolbenschlag documented. "I just called them Impending storm 1,2, and 3," he notes, "I am still amazed at the beauty of the clouds this spring and summer." 2015-06-30 02:06:58 | Comments | Printable version
