A long view of Keen Wilson Road

This is a grand view of Keen Wilson Road in Adair County - from one hillside, across the river, to another. The view is only available before spring and summer leaves cover the branches and block it for another season. My first husband Ed always said winter was his favorite season because one could see so much more. Comments | Permalink

A pharmacist that's part of the solution

Easton Bryant, owner of North Century Pharmacy in Columbia, has a desire to be part of the solution getting people back to good health when they need help, and to stay healthy when they can. You've heard that the pharmacy is specializing in compounding but this allows non-healthcare folks to learn what that means - he has created, "mixed/compounded," hand sanitizer at a time when it is very hard to get in this coronavirus pandemic. And the reason this is featured free of charge in ColumbiaMagazine.com news is that he's giving it free of charge to people in need. Details and contact information are in the story linked to this photo. Comments | Permalink

School Board holds 'new style' meeting, 17 Mar 2020
2020-03-19 - Adair County, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com
For a monthly Adair County School Board meeting, there are normally more vehicles outside and people in attendance. The March 2020 meeting Tuesday night was light of traffic because only ten people were allowed in the board room to comply with Gov. Beshear's calls to help curb the spread of COVID-19. The meeting was also shown live on YouTube under Adair County Schools. Academic Dean Phyllis Curry was granted authority by the board to enter into the NTI (Non-Traditional Instruction) program which allows school to remain in session under the new methods of communication without gathering in classrooms. Prior to the inception of NTI, Kentucky school districts lost many days of school due to bad weather. Adair County Public Schools are in session only online now through April 10, 2020. Instructional packets for school-at-home are being distributed today and tomorrow, Thursday, March 19, and Friday, March 20, 2020. Comments | Permalink
