B.J. Fudge, the Man of Ideas, comes up with grandest one, yet Is anybody out there listening? About: Record enrollment at Bird University To ColumbiaMagazine.com: A lot of great photos on CM today. Looks like the Birding 101 was a tweet success and in Adair County, isn't it great? A grass roots movement Another monumental Birding success that is an example of a truly "grass roots movement" which might very well be a catalyst for enabling our community to see those bus loads of National, International and of course, Canadian Tourists become migratory and visit us annually and often. Maybe this could be our festival. We could have a Bird Walk beginning at dawn, then every two hours all during the day on the first Saturday in January, March, May, July, September, and November. This means that visitors would begin pouring into town on Friday and maybe not leave until Sunday.

Joneses also endorse swim team for ACHS Says it would be another way to help students stay fit About: Wonders if natatorium will mean swim team for ACHS To ColumbiaMagazine.com: We think a swim team would be great for Adair County. It would be a way for our students who may not be good at other sports, but like to swim, to get involved. It would also be another way for students to get fit while they have fun. We hope the Adair County Board of Education agrees with you (with Felicia Morgan. -CM) and works on a swim team. Swimming is one of those sports you can use your entire life. A lot of interesting jobs like search and rescue dive teams or underwater retrieval experts were on their school swim teams as young people. s/Mark & Leila Jones 2010-02-07 10:46:17 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

Kentucky Color: Pignut Hickory One never knows what unusual formation one will find in nature The next earlier Kentucky Color: Billy Joe Fudge, Kentucky Color: Honeylocust Thorns and Blue Sky January 31, 2010. Click on headline for full story plus photo(s) By Billy Joe Fudge, President, Homeplace on Green River, Inc. 6048 New Columbia RD, Campbellsville, KY When you look at the photo accompanying this Kentucky Color, you wonder: Pignut Hickory or long-towed elephant foot? It is an unusual root formation. You never know what you're gonna see out in a hardwood forest during the winter. When the trees are foliated the greenery overpowers our ability to distinguish detail. We've often heard that you can't see the forest for the trees but I believe more often than not, we can't see the trees for the forest.

They deliver magazines, read to patients, help out at fund raising events, etc. For the last several years I have thought about volunteering (key word-thought). Last year I took the first step.

Rev. Joey N. Welsh: Black History Month, More sports history Another Angle. This essay "Carter G. Woodson, Black History Month, and More Sports History" was first published 12 February 2006 in the Hart County News-Herald To see other articles by this author, enter "Rev. Joey N. Welsh," or "Another Angle," in the searchbox. The next earlier essay posted on ColumbiaMagazine.com is Carter G. Woodson, Black History Month, and Some Sports History by The Rev. Joey N. Welsh Dr. Carter G. Woodson, the historian who was father of Black History Month, never shied away from brutal honesty even as he advocated the celebration of America's diverse racial heritage in 1926. The shelves of the local video store have a couple of sports-related films that do some unflinching truth-telling as well as some entertaining celebration. I suspect Dr. Woodson would have liked both films, but for different reasons. Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2010-02-07 05:18:35 | Comments | Printable version
