"The value of the stands have ranged from $6,000 to $10,000 in the past few years," he says, adding, "Pictured are (not necessarily) in order): Fair Association members and Band Booster members Shamarie Claiborne, Charles Grimsley, Shannon Thomas, Tim Allen, Amanda Long, Jennifer Carter, Marshall Judd, James Curry, Thomas Long, Courtney Long, Terry Harvey, Fay Davidson, Billy Pickett, Justin Burris, Winston Keltner, and Gene Burton.

    Mountain Laurel Watch, Corbins Bend RD, April 30, 2009



    2009-05-01 - Adair County Mountain Laurel Trail, Jericho Cliffs, District 6, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener.
    IN THE PAST, we've seen mountain laurel in full bloom anytime from as early as May 1 to May 19. This year, with clearance of roadside brush by the Adair County Road Department, the shrubs are much easier to see from Corbin's Bend Road on top of the Jericho Cliffs overlooking Green River Lake. Yesterday, Thursday, April 30, 2009, this plant had the most promising buds. Any day now and the mountain laurel should be in full flower. A note on the location: It's dangerous to walk near the edge of the cliff. As surefooted as I am, with the agility of a billy goat and superb military training in the Campbellsville KNG Cannon Battery, found myself within one foot of a sheer 50 foot drop, while observing the fresh crop of wildlife. Heaven only knows what could have happend to a neophyte. -Ed Waggener. Clicking on read more puts takes reader to the "Today, Thurs., April 30, 2009 feature," the day the photo was taken.
