Trucks have hardest time during festivals 2023-11-01 - Columbia, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. There has to be a better way for big trucks to get around downtown Columbia than this. City Police directed drivers into the small alley that is is use when the Public Square is closed off for special events like Treats on the Town. Maybe we can hear from some who drive through town how they avoid the congestion at festival and celebration times. The bypass is there for traffic going north/south 55 and 61, but what if a truck is coming from East 80 trying to get to north 55? Is there a way? If you know, please click 'comment' below and share.

New calf born in Bud Mullins sinkhole is doing fine 2023-11-01 - Columbia, KY - Photo by Vicky Pike of Miss Vicky's Pampered Angus Ranch. Vicky Pike reports that a new calf was born yesterday morning at the site of the old sinkhole where her parents told her (to make her behave) that old Bud Mullins, the neighborhood boogie man, lived in her time. She said Ed Waggener would love it. Vultures were sitting in the trees around the sinkhole, waiting for an opportunity to get the calf, but she got to the little one in time and all is well.

Travel: Southern Oregon Coast 2023-11-01 - Southern Oregon - Photo by Robert Ellis, Robert Ellis Woodworking. Robert writes, "Massive rock formations, like the ones pictured are all along the southern Oregon and Northern California coastlines. Traveling from views like this and into those massive trees of the Redwood forests, in a matter of a relatively short drive can be a little bit overwhelming...in a good way! For scale, if you zoom in on the center of the picture, you can just make out a person standing there." Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
