19th Annual Chicken Festival
LONDON, KY
I can't believe it's been 19 years since the World Chicken Festival began.
My Children were 7 and 16 years old, when we started attending the
Festival. Now they are taking their children 11,5,and 3. Time sure
does pass by fast!!!
If you are traveling or live close to Exit 38 on I-75 stop by and visit
our Annual World Chicken Festival
The Chicken Festival will began on Thursday
September 25th - 28th downtown London,Ky
Each year 200,000 plus people attend this Chicken Event.
The year was 1930 in Laurel County where it all began ,Harlan Sanders operated
a gas station in Corbin, Ky, where he started selling his FAMOUS CHICKEN to travelers
stopping for gas. It wasn't long before people were
coming just to eat, then in 1937 he moved across the street and open his first RESTAURANT
Again I would invite you to London's Annual
Free Entertainment on 4 Stages

CONVENTION TIME AGAIN FOR KENTUCKY
ONCE AGAIN IT IS CONVENTION TIME . I HAVE BEEN GOING TO THE KENTUCKY ASSOCIATION OF REALTOR (KAR)FOR 13 YEARS. EVERY YEAR I LOOK FORWARD TO MEETING REALTORS®FROM ALL OVER KENTUCKY. I LEARN MORE FROM ROUND TABLE DISCUSSIONS AT THE CONVENTION THEN I LEARN ALL YEAR FROM CONTINUING EDUCATION CLASSES. I HAVE A GREAT RESPECT FOR REALTORS® THAT HAVE BEEN FAITHFUL TO OUR ORGANIZATION YEAR AFTER YEAR AND GIVE OF THEIR TIME, LEADERSHIP, KNOWLEDGE AND SUPPORT TO BETTER OUR INDUSTRY. THIS IS A ONE TIME OF THE YEAR FOR SOME TO GET AWAY FROM IT ALL AND AT THE SAME TIME STILL BE INVOLVED WITH WHAT WE ALL LOVE "REAL ESTATE" NETWORKING IS THE BEST PART OF CONVENTION AND OF COURSE OUR "FIELD OF BLING" FUND RAISER FOR RPAC AT THE GREAT AMERICAN BALL PARK.
THIS YEAR THERE WILL BE SEVERAL FACES MISSING THAT HAVE ALWAYS BEEN THERE OVER THE YEARS. WE WILL MISS THEM GREATLY. LET'S REMEMBER THEIR FAMILIES.
OUR THEME THIS YEAR IS "RETHINK" WHICH IS WHAT WE ALL HAVE HAD TO DO THIS YEAR. WE HAVE A GREAT LINE UP OF GREAT SPEAKERS, ED HATCH, TERRY WATSON AND MANY MORE.

By Request I am posting more pictures of "HEROES TRUCK" owners Dale and Connie Ison from Hillsboro, Ohio. This is the most magnificent Truck Ever!!! If you ever have the chance to view this work of art you will not be disappointed. The Artist Micky Harris done an outstanding job!!! Since the Anniversary of 9-11 is this Thursday may we take time to remember our "HEROES" Past and Present and hold fast to the FREEDOM they have sacrificed their time, families and even their LIVES FOR US AND FOR THIS GREAT COUNTRY....MAY GOD BLESS OUR "HEROES" AND MAY GOD BLESS AMERICA!!
I HAD THE PRIVILAGE OF MEETING DALE AND CONNIE ISON FROM HILLSBORO, OHIO THE PROUD OWNERS OF THE "HEROES TRUCK"
I AM NOT A BIG TRUCK FAN, BUT I WANTED TO SEE THIS TRUCK BECAUSE IT IS DESIGNED TO HONOR OUR TROOPS, PAST AND PRESSENT. YOU SEE OUR MEN AND WOMEN IN THE ARMED FORCES HAVE A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART. MY SON HAS SERVED 13 MONTHS IN IRAQ AND IS DUE TO SERVE ANOTHER TERM. SO I HEADED TO K-MART PARKING LOT THIS AFTERNOON WHERE "CRUISIN ON MAIN" WAS FEATURING "HEROES TRUCK".
DALE AND CONNIE WERE SO SWEET AND I HAD A VERY NICE CONVERSATION WITH CONNIE AND I TOLD HER HOW MUCH I APPREICATE WHAT THEY HAVE DONE TO HONOR OUR TROOPS, OF COURSE I HAD TO TELL HER ABOUT MY SON AND SHE SAID "TELL YOUR SON WE ARE PROUD OF HIM"
THE TRUCK IS A 1999 CHEVROLET WITH A CADILLAC CIIP. THE COST WAS APPROXIMATELY $650,000 TAKING 5 YEARS TO COMPLETE. TIME SPENT WAS APPROXIMATELY 50,0000 HOURS AND SOME 1200 AIRBRUSH HOURS DONE BY ARTIST, MICKY HARRIS. THE SCENES ARE SO LIFE LIKE THAT YOU HAVE TO SEE IT FOR YOURSELF. THE 9-11 SCENES TOUCH MY HEART THE MOST AND THE VIETNAM MEMORIAL, THE TWIN TOWERS WERE JUST AWSOME!! IT HAS 11 TELEVISION SCREENS WITH VIDEO CLIPS OF 9-11 FIREMEN AND VARIOUS SCENES.
CONNIE TOLD ME THEY HAD BEEN IN 30 SOME STATES SO IF YOU ARE WHERE YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEE THE "HEROES TRUCK" YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. HOPE YOU ENJOY THE PICTURE EVEN THO THEY DO NOT COME CLOSE TO SHOWING THE TALENT DISPLAYED.
