Letter: Michael always followed the cranes About: "Adair County is next point on whooping crane migration route" To ColumbiaMagazine.com: This article reminds me of Michael. He followed the crane trip every year. He went over to Taylor County airport and met with the plane that travels way out front before the leading flight came through. He would go everyday to the site on the internet to see just exactly where they were and how much progress they made. He went out to the farm here in Adair County and got to see their lift off from there. I remember being in that old Volkswagen van out by McCammish Manufacturingto see them pass over early on the cold mornings. It was a real interest to him. s/Ruth Ann Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2007-11-28 06:26:01 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
