There's a famous 111-year-old Ada resident getting a facelift this week. It's the building housing the Ada Herald and Body Works in the 200 block of North Main Street.

The building is also known by residents who look into the sky and see "IOOF 427 1905."

The means that the top floor of the building was one the lodge all for the Ada Independent Order of Odd Fellows, a once popular society at the turn of an earlier century.

Nothing like a warm day in April. Ken Collins has captured many views of spring from the past seven days. Here's a look at spring in Ada from the viewpoint of his camera lens.

Ken Collins, Icon photographer, asks Icon viewers a question:

Why the excitement?
