   Merchant Street - Columbia - Adair County - Kentucky
Thursday_10-August-2023

Flower Garden Florist

Merchant Street in the foreground.

The huge Columbia City Cemetery is in the background.

I have no idea what this building was back in Jack and Oliver's day, but I intend to find out; I suspect it was probably a doctor's home/office.

	I'm inclined to say it was possibly the local creamery. The loading docks on the 'porch', block walls, windows high in the walls of the first floor so things could be stacked against the walls. Second floor was probably warehouse for feed and seed.

	Paris - Bourbon County - Kentucky Saturday_26-July-2025 Original Cape Cod Style Long John Silver's Right beside the Last Surviving Jerry's Restaurant in Paris, Kentucky Now missing it's square roof-top cupola and it's trademark thick wooden planked "wharf" style steps and entrance, with big Creosote wooden pilings and thick Hemp rope hand-railings; this is one of the "Good" Long John Silver's from when they were a fit place to eat at, before the health nuts ruined them; I have not had a decent meal from a Long John Silver's in 35-years. An original blue and yellow Long John Silver's sign is on the North side of the building, partially concealed by some red plastic sheeting; you can see the "ng J" letters. Now, it is a Giovannis Pizza 38.188323°N 84.284152°W Elevation 850'
