Carol Perkins: The Pumpkin patch Halloween's ritual has evolved over the years but Carol Sullivan Perkins keeps the best part of it alive for her grandchildren with a trip to the king of Metcalfe County pumpkin growers, Brandon Bell. The next earlier Carol Sullivan Perkins column: Who would have believed it? By Carol Perkins This is the time of year when pumpkins light up my life. I love looking at them, piled high on truck beds, headed for market. I like how they hide under green vines and can be seen only when they begin to turn orange. The best part of fall, other than the weather, is the sight of a pumpkin patch.

Tom Chaney: Friday night at the Strand Of Writers and Their Books. No. 003. 6 March 2005 Friday night at the Strand The next earlier Tom Chaney book review, Fall of the Giants by Ken Follett By Tom Chaney Email: Tom Chaney bookstore@scrtc.com Friday Night at the Strand I must make an honest confession. I like westerns. There! I've said it. I like western novels. I loved western movies when they played at the Strand Theater every Friday and Saturday back in the 1940's. Our grandmother took us to the Strand every Friday night. Grandfather would never go. Westerns were too childish for him. He would not have been surprised to learn that the good guys always wore white hats - the bad ones black.

Dream Depot cast gave gift of laughter to crowd of 60-75 You just can't feel bad when you are around the Dream Depot cast; they continue to inspire and give gifts of laughter and music to crowds of local fans as they did once again Saturday evening at the VFW Hall, 411 Fairground ST, in Columbia, KY. If you can resist laughing over at least one the lines or applauding spontaneously at the extraordinary voices, then one of them will probably wind up praying with you until you see the light...but that's another play. Click on headline for story plus photo(s) By Linda Waggener CM resident theater critic and devoted Depot fan The Dream Depot crew met at Sonny's Country Cafe Saturday night, bringing together their own script and talent in a play by that title. A crowd of 60-75 enjoyed the play written and played by members of the community. A little food was sold at the cafe... (well, actually very little, as even proprietor Sonny, himself, couldn't really recommend their cooking) and so most customers just wound up purchasing bottled water. He was telling one new customer to just go on to Moore's Pool Room or out to Betty's OK Country Cooking if they really wanted some good food, that is until one of the other proprietor twins, Myrtie or Girtie, slapped him upside his "greasy cap" and reminded him that food was served at their own place of business.

100 years ago: The great Russell Heights land sale An amazing story of Russell Heights history. Columbia proudly counts it as among its most beautiful, vibrant, neighborhoods today. Investments in new homes, government projects, and continuous activism have finally brought the area to the standing its developers dreamed of, with one major, notable exception: The new Russell Heights has none of the ugly racism the ancient Adair County News, the old Democratic Party, or the developers espoused. Perhaps no place in Columbia, save Lindsey Wilson College, is pluralism lived so well today. Click on headline for full 100 Years ago and photos, as added. -EW By "Jim" Wednesday, October 19, 1910, was a Very Large Day in Columbia.
