Levelization for CVS: Still a high hill, April 22, 2012 2012-04-22 - from 712 Russell Road, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. The Levelization of Jamestown Hill to make way for the new CVS Pharmacy Building continues apace, but from the Community Trust Bank/Taylor Co. S&L/Dairy Chick/Raymond Watson/Jesse Keith location on Russell Road, the Darrell Young Homeplace Hill is still stands tall, just in case anyone thought they might be able to see clean across the Five Star to Grade Hill from here by now. According to historian Ol' Joe Barbee, Levelization of Columbia, a movement making it more and more like Waco and less and less like Pikeville, began in earnest with the Caterpillar Bulldozer owned by the late Walker McKinley, and Joe Russell Barbee's Backhoe. "Back then," Ol' Joe said, "Walker McKinley had the only bulldozer, and Russell's backhoe was the only one in the county. Now everybody's got a bulldozer, and there must be 100 backhoes around." The photo was taken Sunday morning, April 22, 2012, just for the record; and just for the record, the little Harris Barber Shop building became a pile of rubble this past week.
