Re : Rural KY photo "sticky" Rural KY photo "sticky" (Lexington, Louisville: home, move, land)
The photos of Kentucky are really appreciable and fantastic. The photos taken are very attracting and appealing. Waiting for more photos which can draw people for tourism.

Where is the BEST place to live in KY?? I want to move there or to TN..........I'm having a hard time deciding. I'm looking for a place that has lots of mountains and a city that is small, but not too small. A place that I can find a good job. I want to be able to go up into the mountains on a weekend.........Please help.........
Thanks.
I've had this little hobby site for a couple of years. Basically I just drive around rural Kentucky and snap photos of "small towns". I've downloaded maps from the Kentucky Atlas Gazetteer website and found on the map little towns that likely don't even exist anymore. They are known as hamlets. For example, I live in the hamlet called Sparrow. Nothing is there anymore except for an old burned down house, our house and lots of fields. What used to be there was a stable, weigh station, hotel, and gas station.
I enjoy the drive, the search, and a lot of the discovery. Some of these old buildings, such as an old blacksmith shop down the road from my house, still stand and serve as homes to nature's fauna and flora.
Anyway, the point of my post, I can't get to all 120 counties. I was going to do one weekend a month, but that would still take me ten years. I'm not taking photos of towns with post offices. Those towns aren't what the site is about. The site is about towns that almost were. Most are named after the families that moved into the area generations ago (and still have family there). Sometimes there is nothing but a road sign or a barn. Sometimes there is a church or a small mom and pop shop.
If you can help me with this, please feel free to PM me here or use the contact form on my site. I could really use some help filling in the site. If I can get enough folks with interest, I'll add a forum so we can keep in touch.
