In the historic Adair Courthouse clock tower
2023-09-26 - Columbia, KY - Photo from the office of Adair County Judge Executive
Reader ideas on Columbia Magazine resulted in two companies reaching out to Adair County Fiscal Court to offer bids on restoration of the historic Courthouse clock. Roger Gordon with Roger Gordon Clockmakers Limited from Titusville, PA, made the trip to Columbia to review the potential project and make a bid. He is pictured in the top of the tower with his hand on the bell. Out the window behind him is the new AC Judicial Center which took all the offices out of the old Courthouse and started the road to where the county property stands now. Comments | Permalink

Veronica writes, "Spotted on the Zinnias (apparently a favorite of most butterflies) is a Gulf Fritillary. I believe it to be a Gulf one because of the three white spots on each wing and the more orange darker hue than a regular Variegated Fritillary."

In these pictures you can see the butterfly's long tongue being used to find nectar in these flowers. I was able to stand right there, less than arms' reach away... guess the nectar was so good this flying guy didn't care that I stopped to spy."
