Garage Sale Vol. 1

Every now and then sometimes we have to do a "Spring Cleaning" and have a garage sale.  Tonight, I have done that with some pictures that I have in my collection.  Initially, I felt that these pictures were not good or were simply average.  However, in looking back through them, I look at these pictures a little different.  I hope that you enjoy my Garage Sale.  :)

The first picture is of flowers sent to my mom on her birthday. 


The second picture is of a silhouette of a statue of Abraham Lincoln in downtown Hodgensville, KY.


The third picture is a sunset picture on July 1, 2011 in Bowling Green, KY before the fireworks display at the Corvette Museum.


The next picture was taken at my friend Sean's comedy show in Louisville, KY.  This is not him that is on stage though. 


The picture below was taken in Covington, KY looking over the Ohio River into Cincinnati.


The sixth picture in tonight's blog was taken in Larue County, KY at the Abraham Lincoln Park.  Behind me in this picture is a natural spring.  The bench to the bottom right allows for viewers to relax while feeling the cool breeze from the spring on a hot day.


The last picture was taken on Frankfort Ave. in Louisville KY.

Going Going Back Back 2 Cali Cali

I love song references...trust me, I feel that I could carry a conversation for an entire day of nothing but song lyrics.  Anyways, so why the Notorious BIG song reference?  Well...today, I had the opportunity to visit California...California, Kentucky that is.  California, KY is located in the Eastern portion of Campbell County along the Ohio River.  The town itself has a total population of 86 (as of 2000 census).  According to various sites, the history of the town was lost due to numerous floods of the Ohio River.  The town had its own post office by 1852.

Since I lived in Morehead, I have been fascinated that there is a California in Kentucky.  Today, I had a few minutes to spare and was able to take the opportunity to visit the city of California.  I will say that next to Augusta, KY, it was one of the more peaceful areas along the Ohio River.  Hopefully, one day I'll get to go back 2 CALI CALI!!!  Below are my pictures of California, KY...Enjoy!!!
