OPPORTUNITY TO ENJOY WHAT NATURE PROVIDED

HAVING LIVED IN SEVERAL STATES, I FOUND KENTUCKY TO BE THE ONE THAT I WOULD NEVER HAVE CHOSEN TO LEAVE HAD I NOT MET A CANADIAN, MARRIED, AND MADE THE CHOICE TO RESIDE IN CANADA ONCE I RECEIVE MY IMMIGRATION PAPERS. THE VERSATILITY OF KENTUCKY IS AMAZING. I LIVE IN SOUTHEASTERN KENTUCKY WHERE THE AREA IS GRACED WITH THE MOUNTAINS. IT IS AWESOME FOR HIKING, EVEN TRAILS SIMPLE ENOUGH THAT MY YOUNG GRANDCHILDREN COULD ACCOMPANY ADULTS. CUMBERLAND FALLS, SECOND WIDEST TO NIAGRA FALLS (EAST OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER)AND ONLY NORTH AMERICAN FALLS TO HAVE A MOON BEAM, IS LOCATED NOT FAR FROM WHERE I LIVE. CUMBERLAND FALLS HAS A BEAUTIFUL PARK FOR PICNIC OUTINGS, HIKING, AND EVEN A SMALL BEACH. THE AREA ALSO HAVE HORSEBACK RIDING STABLES, WHICH ALLOW FOR VARYING LENGTHS OF TRAIL RIDING RENTALS. MYSELF AND MEMBERS OF MY FAMILY AT DIFFERENT TIMES HAVE ENJOYED THE BEAUTY OF THE MOUNTAINS FROM A HORSE TRAIL. AMAZING. TRAVELING NORTHWARD, YOU GET INTO THE ROLLING LANDS OF BLUEGRASS COUNTRY AND THEN THERE IS LEXINGTON AND LOUISVILLE FOR CITY ATMOSPHERE. ONE OF MY FUTURE NEIGHBORS IN VANCOUVER, CANADA, TOOK A PLEASURE TRIP TO LOUISVILLE THIS PAST SUMMER. SHE AND HER TRAVELING COMPANION COULD NOT STOP RAVING ABOUT THE CLEANLINESS AND THE BEAUTY OF LOUISVILLE. I HAVE VISITED THE PARKS THAT LINE THE RIVER IN LOUISVILLE AND AM IMPRESSED BY THE WAY THE WAY LOUISVILLE HAS CREATED AND MAINTAINS A CLEAN, SAFE AND WONDERFUL FAMILY ENVIRONMENT (AS DOES THE REST OF THE STATE IN MY OPINION). ALL IN ALL, I WAS AND AM IN LOVE WITH KENTUCKY. IT WILL ALWAYS BE MY PLACE TO RETREAT AND REFRESH AMONGST SOME OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GOD GIVEN SETTINGS IN AMERICA.
