Health care: keeping those feet happy

If your feet are happy, you are going to be happy - and walking, too. But if you are feeling pain or tingling, it could be a symptom of a bigger problem.

Daily foot or ankle pain is not normal, and there is generally something you can do about it, according to Harvard Medical School. More details on toes, heels, ankles and arches follow.

Share the love of Christ with those in need

From Rev. Ryan Boatright
Pastor, Columbia United Methodist Church

I hope this finds you well. Alissa Barnes shared with me that Jackie Mattingly and her daughter, Jasmine, lost the trailer they were renting in a fire. Many of you may remember that Jackie and Jasmine have been attending church and youth at CUMC.

The Red Cross has stepped in to meet immediate needs, but as they move forward they will need some help replacing all that was lost in the fire. We will begin collecting money to help them. All we ask is if you write a check, please make a notation (Jackie) in the memo. Alissa is in touch with Jackie and will keep me posted on the progress of their resettling in another rental. I would like to encourage you all to give to this family. Jackie is working hard to better her's and Jasmine's life. This is an opportunity to share the love of Christ with those in need.

Feel free to stop by, mail or call: 202 Burkesville Street, Columbia, KY 42728, (270) 384-2276. Thank you in advance for your help.

Carol Perkins: Austin bound

Previous Column: Snow Stories

By Carol Perkins

A driving trip sounded like a good idea. We left two days after Christmas, headed for Austin, Texas, for a week.

During that time, we would get to see four of Noah's basketball games. He's a senior, so opportunities like this are growing slim.

I was more eager about the driving trip than Guy was, but neither of us wanted to fly. We needed our vehicle, and renting a car was an added expense we wanted to avoid. I visualized listening to podcasts, music, talking, and surfing TikTok for funny videos. Like a kid ready for a vacation, my bags were ready early the next morning. (Early for me is nine o'clock.)

Letter: Ms Rieder's Ice

By Billy Joe Fudge

Like Ms. Rieder, I feel for animals who have to endure the frigid temperatures of winter. But in the case of this Great Blue Heron, it has wings and can fly south should push come to shove. However, the poor fish are trapped in the water beneath the frozen surface and they only survive because of the unequaled, unique quality of water.

Water is the only known, naturally occurring substance, that is more dense at 39 degrees than at its freezing point of 32 degrees. Since it is more dense, it is heavier and it sinks.

As each surface layer of water cools or warms to 39 degrees, it sinks to the bottom of the pool, pushing the cooler or warmer water on the bottom toward the surface. This is why we say that large bodies of water, such as lakes in temperate regions, "turn over" each fall or spring.

If it were not for this anomaly of water, lakes could then freeze all the way to the bottom and the fish would most likely die.

Basketball: Indians fall on the road, 79-73, to Taylor Co.

By Trey Stephens, Staff Writer

On Friday, February 6, 2026, the Adair County Indians Boys Varsity Basketball team fell on the road 79-73 to the Taylor County Cardinals. The game was tight throughout, with Taylor County leading by two after the first quarter, five at the half, and six by the end of the third. The Indians were unable to stop Taylor County's inside presence for most of the night. Cardinals big man Bryten Close scored at will from the painted area for a majority of the evening.

Landon Blakey led the scoring for Adair County with 27, followed by Dawson Gilbert with 17, and John Shehan with 11 to round out the Tribe players in double figures. Adair County shot the ball 57% from the floor and 38% from three point range. They made 50% from the free throw line, a tough 7 for 14, that left several possible points on the table that could have made a large difference at the end of this one.

Tylin George led the rebounding for Adair County with nine, followed by Landon Blakey with eight. The team as a whole put up just 27 rebounds in this one, compared to the 32 and 43 rebounds they put up in their two prior wins over Taylor County this season.

The team will not have long to dwell on the tough loss as they are right back in action today as they face Trinity (Louisville) (8-10) at Berea in the Smallwood Classic.

ACVFD: Eat, help others and hear candidates today

Today, February 7, 2026, at the Adair County Fire Department will be a good time to kick off a return to our normal winter weather!

After being cooped up for three weeks, Phillip Richard says, this is a wonderful event where you can enjoy ACVFD's awesome chili, bid on donated auction items, and hear candidates speak on the reasons why they should get your vote.

And the best part is that every dime raised by the fire department goes to the Crusade for Children and comes right back to Adair County children in need. Chefs will include Billy Hadley, Roger Cundiff, and Donald Hare. They will start serving up food at 4:30pmCT. Campaign speeches begin at five.

Get ready for the 2026 Great Backyard Bird Count

From Wendy Butler Burt

Starting next Friday and lasting through Monday (February 13-16, 2026), people from around the world will take time out of their days to watch and count all the birds they see or hear and report their findings as part of the Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC www.birdcount.org). These observations help scientists better understand global bird populations by providing hyper-local data.

Kentucky is a terrific place to watch birds and Adair County is home to over 100 bird species at this time of year and many more species during the other seasons. And while many of us admire and feed wild birds, few Adair Countians actively count and report their sightings so they can be included in state and national databases. We can do better!

The GBBC is citizen science, an excellent example of a project where each of us can help scientists better understand how many of each species is present in exact locations before they migrate. Participating in the GBBC is important because birds need our help. A recently published study determined that almost 1 out of every 4 North American birds have disappeared from our skies over the past 50 years thats 3 BILLION fewer birds than we had in 1970.

So, will you help science? Will you participate next weekend in the GBBC? Its easy.

Basketball: Lady Indians defeat Marion, face Taylor next

By Trey Stephens, Staff Writer

On Wednesday, February 4, 2026, the Adair County Lady Indians defeated the Marion County Lady Knights 59-42 at home. This game improved the Tribe to 2-3 in the district and means they are guaranteed to face Campbellsville in the first round of the 20th District Tournament.

The Lady Indians were led by a trio of double-digit scorers, with Ila Loy posting 16, Reese Bardin having 13, and Kinzlee Akin contributing 10. The team did not shoot the ball incredibly on the game, going 41% from the floor, 33% from three point range, and just 29% from the free throw line. Loy led the team in rebounds, with seven, followed by Bardin with five and Anika Jennings with four.

The team has little time to enjoy the win as they are back on the court facing 20th District rival Taylor County (18-3), with tip off scheduled for 5:30pmCT on Friday, February 6, 2026, at Taylor County High School, 2705 Hodgenville Rd, Campbellsville, KY. Tickets are $8 at gofan.co, and grant admittance to both Girls and Boys games.

Birds of Kentucky - Great Blue Heron on ice


2026-02-06 - Adair County, KY - Photo by Donna Rieder.
In a report from Clifty Creek Farm, Donna writes, "The shallow part of the creek is clear where the water is running over the rocks - running water doesn't freeze - but the deep, slow-moving areas are frozen over. The deep parts are where the fish hang out. I feel sorry for this Great Blue Heron, who's been sitting on the ice for over a week now. I'm sure this poor bird is getting hungry."

Basketball: Indians win homecoming thriller vs Knights

By Trey Stephens, Staff Writer

On Wednesday, February 4, 2026, the Adair County Indians Boys Varisty Basketball team defeated the Marion County Knights 77-76 in a homecoming night thriller in John Burr Memorial Gymnasium. With this game, Adair County improves to 5-1 in the district, putting them in control of the number one seed in the 20th District.

Senior Landon Blakey led the scoring for the Indians with 24, followed by Tylin George with 22. Dawson Gilbert posted 13 points and John Shehan had 12 to round out the Adair County players in double figures. The team shot the ball 57% from the floor, and 44% from beyond the three point arc, along with 84% from the free throw line.

Tylin George posted a team-leading 12 rebounds to have a double-double. Landon Blakey had the second most boards for the team with five. This game was likely closer than Adair County would have hoped. They defeated the Knights of Marion County by 14 back on December 12, 2025.

The Indians will return to the court to face the Taylor County Cardinals (15-8) on the road at 7pmCT on Friday, February 6, 2026.

Russell County Search & Rescue report

Feb 3, 2026 Around 4 a.m., Russell County Search and Rescue was dispatched to the Pulaski County line for a missing 15-year-old who had left his home around 2 a.m. and slid down a steep hillside, becoming lost and unable to climb out.

After the juvenile was located by drone, rescuers made their way to him and confirmed he was safe but stranded between 2 cliff faces. A rope system was set up, and one of our rescuers rappelled down to reach him. With no safe way out except straight back up, the juvenile was secured into a harness and hoisted up the cliff before being walked to an ambulance.
