Early numbers indicate big final GRK Cruse-in Downtown today



2007-09-08 - Downtown Columbia, KY - Photo By Ed Waggener.
STEVE LEMMON displays his completely customized 1952 Chevrolet Coupe in front of the Bank of Columbia . Besides the obvious grill, bumper, and trim changes, the car also sports power. There's a 1979 350hp V8 under the hood, nearly four times the power of the original 92 HP inline six cylinder installed at the factory. Lemmon is originally from Adair County, but now lives in Russell Springs. He was early to the show. Green River Krusers' Terry Farris said that he was surprised at the large number of exhibitors who came before the 4:00pm start time, saying, "If this is any indication, we should fill up the Square." The weather is feels more comfortable, with a good breeze making the high 80s temperature feel much cooler.

Letter: Northeast Adair County notes

Hi Ed,

That was a nice photograph of the three young men from northeastern Adair County. My second cousin, Mattie Lou Sinclair Neat, may be able to identify the bridge where the photograph was made.
