Magic moment photo includes road name puzzler Comments re photo 65394 Scenic Cumberland Co KY Water View in a Magic Moment Morris Grubbs writes: I enjoyed last week's "magic moment" scene of Waterview, the place where I grew up. My sister and her husband live there in the house at the top of the hill in the upper right of the photo. That's the Grubbs barn in the middle of the photo in the bend of Hwy. 90. The barns in the foreground belong to Boyd and Neda Alexander and their sons, Chris and Jeff. You can see Jeff's house hidden in the trees above and to the left of my sister's house. Where did you get the name "Ham and Honey Rd."? I've never heard it called this, but I like it! - MorrisMorris, thank you for your letter! Your home country is beautiful and it's good to know your family and friends are there helping to keep it so. I must confess that Ed looked online to find that road name and he said he'd trust your judgement as a native and be open to changing Honey and Ham Road as the facts come in. - Linda Waggener 2016-03-20 13:46:19 | Comments | Printable version

Linda Waggener: Voting yes to end duplicity, buy legal-local Normally I never tell anyone how I'm voting. This historic wet/dry election issue, however, makes it just seem the right thing to do. By Linda Waggener My intention is to go to the polls and vote yes Tuesday March 22, 2016. After reading every letter and comment from people I respect on both sides of the issue, I favor legalizing the sale of alcoholic beverages in Adair County because our present deceptive, look-the-other-way practice of bootlegging just does not seem the right thing to continue doing. Because I disagree with the duplicity of allowing open illegal bootlegging in a dry county, I have not "driven through (wink/wink, nod/nod) and broken the law" as some have confessed. I prefer to buy local, but it has to be legal-local. Because bootlegging businesses thrive in Adair County, the message from the majority seems perfectly clear -- that a nearby source of alcohol is needed, wanted and supported.
