What the new photo doesn't show is a little sister who joined the boys four years ago. We think she'll be blazing new trails all her own. -- Mema Linda Waggener

KY Afield Outdoors: The fish are biting

By Lee McClellan

Frankfort, KY - The grass is the deep forest green that only reveals itself in early spring. Keeneland opens this week and the Kentucky Derby is not far away.

It is early April in Kentucky and the fish are biting all over the state.

"I caught a limit of striped bass last Saturday and another on Sunday and did the same the weekend before on Lake Cumberland," said Joe McWilliams, an avid striped bass angler who has owned a house on the lake for nearly 20 years. "Most of them ran 24 to 26 inches, but my biggest was 30 1/2 inches."

Darryl Smith: Details on Russell County, KY waterfall

Darryl Smith writes:
Hi Ed. This waterfall is geographically located midway between Sandy Trail and Fox Point roads in Jamestown on USACOE land. It's fed by an un-named creek and empties into the Greasy Creek part of the lake. The GPS coordinates are: 36.967943, -85.069660 if you wish to view it on Google Earth. This picture was taken when the lake level was lowered for repairs to Wolf Creek Dam; the updated Google view shows the lake at around 700' above mean sea level. - Darryl Smith

JIM: As today, improved transportation was issue 100 years ago

Today the focus is on the Heartland Parkway, safer bridges, traversible country lanes, pathways for tourists, and highway safety, and transportation continues to be a key economic development issue. One hundred years ago it was on just being able from one point to another in one piece. Jim takes readers back to the issue as it stood in Crocus-to-Montpelier section of Adair and Russell Counties

By JIM

The following paragraphs, found in the Crocus newsletter published in the February 25, 1914 News, give a glimpse of the condition of some of the roads of that era -- and why News editor C.S. Harris fought so long and hard for improved transportation in Adair County.

Epicurean Kentuckian: A more perfect, Pickle-Dog centric, meal

This could be the Last Word on this subject, unless anyone wants to seriously take issue with the notion that banana flavored Moon Pies are the best choice of flavor
JIM: As today, improved transportation was issue 100 years ago

By Ed Waggener

Jim has been advising on a picnic day trip to conduct research project retracing a route along the Russell-Adair County frontier, from Crocus to Montpelier, and suggests taking along a more perfect meal:
"Y'all have a fun trip --and have a few bites of Pickle Dog for me. It's better when it's fixed up rag'l'r, you know, with Saltines, a cane sugar Coca-Cola, a bag of salty redskins, and a Moon Pie (banana flavor, please!)"
Yum-m-m! Well balanced, but more importantly, delicious.

He follows with the lament of so many ex-pats, "Boy, my breakfast apple and orange certain pale in light of that menu!" Yessir, it do.

The meal works best for this trip, but the ingredients, likely not available today from one outfitter, could become standard fair for any Pickle Dog Picnic Day Trip or Know-Your-County-Better-Tour. - EW/LW at CM
