Mystery: Missing lines from familiar sign 2017-09-02 - Within CM 7-County area: Adair, Casey, Cumberland, Green, Metcalfe, Russell and Taylor Counties, KY - Photo ?????. Three words, in two lines, are missing above the date in this bungled up photo. There's enough detail that it can surely be in only one place. If you know what's needed to be restored to the picture, let us know using the "Comment" link with the photo. Finally, let us know if the age of the landmark is as great as it was on when the photo was taken? We were. - Ed & Linda Paired Photo Misty Claywell: Misty didn't take long to ID mystery sign. 1 guess. It's correct Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Water under the gate, Gradyville, KY 2017-09-02 - Old Gradyville Road, at Edmonton Road, Gradyville, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. Waters from Friday's very early downpour were already receding when this photo was taken of a memory scene from yesteryear, when water gates - right side of photo - were seen at almost every stream at property boundaries. Watergates swung freely, and were in the down position until water along the bottom edge gave it lift, as it is doing above. - EW. Photo Friday, September 1, 2017, afternoon.

Old Gradyville Rd. Bridge 1st closed - Flash Flood of 01 Sep 2017 2017-09-01 - Bridge at Old Gradyville Road & Paul Coomer Road, Gradyville, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. The little bridge over Big Creek at the intersection of Old Gradyville Road and Paul Coomer Road was the first closure of the day, today, on Friday, 1 Sep 2017, by Adair County Road Foreman Terry Corbin, and the first to re-open. This photo was taken at 12:30pmCT, after the road had reopened. There was plenty of evidence of the wide swath in bottom land pastures flattened a few hours earlier, however. Mr. Corbin urges everyone to be extremely cautious on Adair County Roads today, especially lowlying areas, including this one. With more rainfall Friday, it's entirely possible that this passage may be closed again. - EW/LW Read More... | Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
