Madison County Kentucky Time Capsule - Aug 03 10:47 PM

Where does time go?? 
This week I made a trip to the Madison County Court House to register my car and pick up tags. As I was walking on the sidewalk out front  I stepped on the Time Capsule!

Is Progress Killing Our Kentucky Green Space? - Aug 19 11:06 AM
Don't get me wrong...I love my hometown. I was born in Madison County and I have lived half a century to see some major changes here.
I am in the business of selling real estate. It would be rare to see a client buy farms just to see them stay as they are. Most always they are bought to subdivide for homes or build commercial buildings.
I admit to the love of shopping and have been excited to ...

In Richmond KY, I was aware of the storms but I didn't start to get alarmed till about 1:30 AM. I was still up and watching the radar. The last twister I was involved with was in 1974.

Berea Rain Barrel Festival - Berea Kentucky - Apr 09 11:11 AM
Last year's drought in Central Kentucky really did a number on some of my trees and shrubs.
Even if you did get to water them, the chlorinated stuff you get out of the end of the water hose didn't help plants grow...merely kept them alive. A rain barrel is the answer to the watering problem. Keep your own rain water...it's free!
Not only will it save you money,but when there are watering restrictions you will be able to ignore ...
