Bliss News: Top speed chase stops man fleeing on motorized cart By Victoria Browning Pike Well, Ed missed the biggest news story of the year. I tried to get him twice to report a motorized cart from Walmart heading south on the new highway at top speed being chased by the police with blue lights blinking. The cart gave out in front of Kenny Bennett's house and it was all over. I was mowing and wasn't able to get pictures, but it sure was funny. - Vicky Browning Pike 2012-09-22 09:36:12 | Comments | Printable version
History with Mike Watson: The Dug Hill There is more than one Dug Hill in Adair County, today. The one in the news lately, given notoriety by B.J. Fudge, has followed more than one path. Early history on the Dug Hills was hard to come by, but the writer had the benefit of the reliable wisdom handed out at Gilbert Smith's store, where Civil War stories, lost gold on the hill, and other tales abound. Dug Hill became a really big deal in the New Deal when it was major Adair County WPA project. And then there's the very fine Dug Hill on KY 206, above Eunice, KY. There's all this and more in this Adair County history masterpiece. -CM By Mike Watson The modifications on the Dug Hill, on highway 704, this summer, which Billy Joe Fudge's progress photographs and several stories on Columbia Magazine, detailing experiences on that scenic stretch--or twist--of highway, have prodded a bit of research. Urged by several not-so-old friends, Lewis Jessee being first among them, I collected some of the facts/stories from childhood, having lived a mere stone's throw from the top of that dangerous and exciting stretch of road. This is complete by no means, merely a "jumping off place", pun intended.
