Nominates Norma Parnell work for Official Adair County Quilt About: Norma Jean Parnell's wonderful quilt To ColumbiaMagazine.com: It is very evident that much planning went into the Adair County theme for this quilt, before the actual construction phase began.

Chiuhuahua, possibly a pet, is lost on Conover LN, Columbia, KY To ColumbiaMagazine.com: There is a little chihuahua running around on Conover Lane. It is light colored with just a bit of wirey hair mixed in. I don''t know if it is lost or someone dropped it off, but it is adorable. We can't get very close to it, so we don't know if it is male or female...but it is cute as can be. We have been setting out food and water for it, but it is still scared of us, and I don't know how long it will survive staying outside at night. If someone is looking for this little dog, they can call me to get the location. My cell number is (270) 250-5561.
