Kentucky is very scenic and gorgeous away from the metropolis. Rural Kentucky in the southern and far western portions are simply jaw dropping.
That said, I was amazed at how well laid out Bowling Green is. Owensboro is a very modern city, that is continuously growing. They have a problem. There are more JOB openings there for real manufacturing jobs than people to fill them. So the companies constantly battle for each others employees. Its a serious problem. The company I was at is adding anther 80,000 square feet of manufacturing space and bought an entire city block they have to demo and then build a modern plant on, in addition to the several hundred thousand square feet they already have outgrown...
But the countryside is spectacular.... I love driving thru rural parts of America and seeing real people and the natural beauty of the trees and hills and fields and mountains... You get all that in Kentucky as well as New Hampshire, West Virginia, Vermont, Tennessee, etc..
Only the people that are total strangers there are so very friendly and kind.. I stopped and talked with some people I saw at a family farm who had a road side stand and justbrought a bunch of fresh ppicked pumpkins up from their field.. You would have thought I was a family member... Wonderful lifetime memories from this trip...
