    I always stop through to lay flowers at the grave of my childhood favorite actor Jim Varney. God bless his soul forever. We lost him far too early. ❤️

      @@tomlehr861 compared with the housing in Rochester, NY., I find housing here to be more expensive. For some reason the demand for houses is high while there just limited “for sale houses.” thus, houses sell rather quickly but the upside is that property tax is much lower than in NY and sales tax is only 6% . I’m sure you can find a house that you want if you just keep looking. Congratulations and Good luck on your retirement!

    The script writer may be from Kentucky, but the guy in the voice-over sure as heck isn't. He mispronounced waaaay too many Kentucky words, there, and everyone knows Owensboro is the appropriate place for Kentucky-specific BBQ.

    If you were to ask a local where Versailles was based on your pronunciation no one would know what you're talking about. We pronounce it the way it's spelled, "Ver-sales".

      That tells me that the poster has never been here. No way he's seen the "castle" or Woodford Reserve and still pronounces it like it was a suburb of Paris.

    Lexington is the prettiest town I’ve ever seen and can’t wait to move there next month of May. Having the University of Kentucky there is such an added bonus! I love Rupp Arena and Commonwealth Stadium!

    Me and my wife want to move here from Texas to escape the Californian transplants, but worry it’s also full of them as well.

      hate to break it to ya little guy, but when California is by far the most populous state in the country, there are going to be Californian transplants everywhere. and by the way, Kentucky has a Democrat governor right now, so i’m sure you’d be much happier in Abbottland.

    You didn't mention The International Museum of the Horse, a major attraction at the Kentucky Horse Park. Also checkout Old Friends Farm in Georgetown, home to many great retired thoroughbred race horses. Go to Keeneland when they are racing, during the spring or fall meet usually Thursday through Sunday.

      Versailles is pronounced vur-SIGH. Just because everyone in KY pronounces it wrong doesn't change its proper pronunciation.
