Impressions of Kentucky

• Rolling hills
• Twangs and Drawls
• Friendly Smiles
• Horses
• Politeness - never heard so many ma'am and sirs
• Multiple Bridges over the Ohio River
• Beautiful and diverse architecture
• Rich History people care about
• Small towns
• International street and town names - Sparta, Warsaw, Mt. Zion Rd. Lebanon, Hebron, Macedonia...
• Huge wide intersections everywhere
• High quality well thought out parkland 
• Gas stations that need your zip code before you can pump gas! For us Canadians, we had to go into the building, explain we don't have a zip code, prepay inside, and then go pump the gas
• Speed limit of 110 mph
• Forests
• White squirrels - likely the new mascot of WKU
• Sports - stadiums everwhere
• Yummy food
• Spices and seasonings
• U.S. flags everywhere - bridges, cemetery grave sites, houses, highways, hotels...
• ADA wheelchair accessibility (not just guidelines or acceptable, but w/c friendly and the law. Big spaces in hotel rooms)
• Cicadas - loud and plentiful 
• Cave Kisses - drops of water dripping on your head as you walk through a cave

Somewhere in Kentucky

Heavy duty picnic tables on rail tracks that can be moved into different positions

Small town Kentucky - I think this one was Newport.

Florence Kentucky - wheelchair accessible room

Although there were lots of Victorian homes, there were also some uniquely designed buildings as well.

 So many more photos and videos, but we hope this blog has given you a good view of Kentucky as we saw it.
We all want to go back - just maybe not in August!
