Kentucky Color: Look at your Homeplace From Billy Joe Fudge Homeplace on Green River is proudly hosting a pair of nesting Barn Owls. You can read more in a recent blog post from HGR about the report from KY Fish and Wildlife that shows the population of Barn Owls in Kentucky on the rise. Lyn Stanton, Program Director at Homeplace on Green River, says, "In the report, there is a picture of a nesting box in a silo. I think it's from our silo," and she's waiting for confirmation. While Barn Owls are found worldwide, the species has seen declines in parts of their range due to habitat loss. Kate Slankard, Avian Biologist with the KY Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources said, "Your continued support of the barn owl program is very much appreciated. Due to this species' status, the contribution made by providing a single safe nesting site for a pair of barn owls is significant." Homeplace on Green River is a joint effort of Adair, Green and Taylor counties. Located in Taylor County, the 227-acre farm is being restored as a permanent reminder for all ages of the role agriculture plays in our lives. Since January 2016, hundreds of students from all three counties as well as from Lindsey Wilson College have used Homeplace as Kentucky's Outdoor Classroom.

Progress in Columbia, June 1933: Water Works, New Adair Hotel June 1933 saw the enactment of the National Industrial Recovery Act, put forth by the federal government in an attempt to fight the Great Depression, then well into its fourth year and showing little if any relief from the economic misery it brought. But meanwhile, back in The Shire... By JIM The June 14 edition of the Adair County News brought long awaited and eagerly anticipated news on two fronts. James Claud Miller (of the Crocus Miller family), owner of the New Adair Hotel, announced the Formal Reopening of the establishment on June 20th. He had purchased the venerable building several years earlier but closed it down in the fall of 1932 for repairs and extensive renovation. Among other things, it now boasted a new steam furnace heating plant, running water in every room (and in nod to big city ways, a few rooms even had private baths!), new hardwood floors, and refurnished and redecorated rooms. Said the newspaper, "The hotel is new throughout and many changes have been made in the lobby and other parts of the building, which make it much more attractive and convenient."
