State of Construction Progress: CVS Pharmacy June 6, 2012 2012-06-07 - From Carrie Bolin Drive, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. The East Wall of the new CVS Pharmacy in the big lot bounded by Carrie Bolin Drive, Jamestown Street, and Russell Road is full height, and the wall in the foreground is taking shape, soon to block the view of Jamestown Street north from Carrie Bolin. The picture was taken late Wednesday afternoon, with a rare lull in traffic on Jamestown Hill. Only two cars were seen at the stop light. The road in the foreground appears, in the photo to be going into endless forest, but leads to Downtown Columbia. The photo was taken Wednesday, June 6, 2012. -Ed Waggener Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Cattle: Ankole-Watsui in Metcalfe Co., KY 2012-06-07 - Metcalfe Co., KY - Photo by Johnnietta Jessie. Mama Ankole Watsui, with baby, in Metcalfe Co., KY:I looked these cattle up on the internet. According to Wikipedia, the breed comes from Africa and was endangered but is flourishing now. They were imported to the US in the 1960s. The Ankole cattle were considered sacred and were used only for milk. They were also considered a sign of wealth with the kings owning the ones with large horns. The cattle were a startling sight spotted on a Yard Sale trip recently. - Johnnietta Jessie. Seen in the ColumbiaMagazine group on Flickr.

Red Brick Studios following disastrous Midnight Fire 2012-06-06 - 200 Public Square, Columbia, KY - Photo By Ed Waggener. Little has given the downtown community so much hope in recent months as the decision by Columbia media owner Mike Harris, plans, already underway, to put a state of the art recording studio in what was the Arnold/Firestone Building at the time of a disastrous 11:20pmCT fire on April 29, 2012. Since then Harris has purchased the building from Ben Arnold and has disclosed plans to transform the building into a showpiece. He's already hired Danny Bailey, a nationally well known recording studio executive, to manage the operation. Contractor Glenn "Red" Nixon will undertake the massive job, which will include adding a new Red Brick with black trim and shutters exterior; a downstairs recording studio, and posh living quarters for visiting groups while here for recordings. Fire damaged refuse is being removed from the building; dumpsters at the front and back of the structure are being filled, removed and refilled until actual work is underway. A logo for the business has already been selected, utilizing a unique online graphics firm, www.99designs.com. It took just four days, and a fraction of the cost of most logo designs, for Harris to name the winner of the design contest 99designs.com conducted.
