Good Morning!

Vic, I'm surprised Hank didn't just take that tree home with you and turn it into a glorious garden room. That part of KY does have some wonderful old trees. This part was all farmland at one time so the trees here in most areas of WKY are relatively young trees compared to those where you were. Not big enough for playhouses inside. I'm so glad you got to see them.

Vickie, I was very near you yesterday when I took a little side trip to Owensboro. I even crossed over the bridge into Indiana just for the fun of it. Truth is I wanted a picture of the Ohio River bridge from the Indiana side because I think that curve is so pretty. I had forgotten my camera but had my cell phone, so the picture is not of great quality, but still what I wanted.

My aunt has always lived near Seymour, well, always during my lifetime, so on my way to Indianapolis to visit my son and grandson, I usually stop by to see her and when I'm very lucky I can talk somebody in the family into going with me to Brown County for one of their festivals. I love that area too.

When I was growing up my family had a cabin on Lake Cumberland and we were there quite often. I mostly talked them into letting me play on land in the trees while the others went fishing in a little fishing boat that held no interest to me. They usually agreed because I was known to rock the boat a time or two. It is a beautiful place.

I love the old cemetery in your photo, Vickie, look at those majestic monuments; even without them, though, the beautiful cedar tree in your picture tells us that it for sure is a burial ground.

Thanks Ladies.
