Farewell to the West, Heading Back To Kentucky Click headline for photos from this day of Robert and William's trip out west. By Robert Ellis Robert Ellis Woodworking This was our last vacation day out West. Since we had plenty of time before our late night departure, we headed out to this canyon/mountain range. It is only about 25 miles from Las Vegas and is a very beautiful place to visit. Apparently is is a favorite spot for climbers, and if you look closely enough you can see some rappelling on the cliff faces, and people traversing the trail at the base. This Canyon can be traveled through by vehicle since it has a nice paved road that circles through the park. All photos from this trip:

Ads from a bygone era offer insight into turn-of-century lifestyle By JIM Looking back one hundred twenty years, ads in the Adair County News in mid-May 1901 reveal a fair amount about life then. Several area hotels touted their accommodations. The newly renovated Hancock Hotel just off the square on Burkesville Street offered a feed stable for horses as well as meals both for guests and the public at large, the table "supplied with the best the market affords." Other area lodging accommodations included the recently opened Commercial Hotel (Holt & Vaughan, Props.) and the more established Patterson (J.B. Patterson, Prop.) in Jamestown; the Russell Springs Hotel (Vaughan & Graham, Props.), in Kimble; and the Wilmore Hotel, in Gradyville, W.M. Wilmore, Prop., which offered reasonable rates, a feed stable, and "a first class table." E.W. Hopewell & Albin Murray, dba Hopewell & Murray, offered "livery, feed, and safe stable" in connection with the Marcum Hotel (exit corner of Greensburg Street and the square), promising "first class rigs with safe drivers furnished day or night -- drummer's rigs a specialty."
