Progress & Preservation: The Barn of Many Colors 2016-04-24 - Intersection Veterans Bypass & Pelham Branch Road, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com (c). No matter what it's state of repair has been, this barn has provided a memorable marking place for as long as most of us can remember. It's being repaired now, which means, hopefully, it will continue to be a source of pleasure for all who love Adair County's great agriculture heritage, not just those of us who live in a barn. Whether there's a fresh coat or paint in its future - or not - its iconic presence will be appreciated by so many of us. - EW. - Photo 23 Apr 2016 Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
