Post subject:  Coming to Kentucky

We are going to be flying to Lexington on July 25th for a family reunion (my Mom is from Menifee county). We'll only be there until the 27th, and I won't have the Jeep :cry: , but I thought I'd let y'all know in case someone is around Morehead/Cave Run Lake on Friday the 25th, or around Frenchburg on the 26th.

I came close to the marina when we were there. I drove over to the firetower and saw the new motorized trail-riding regulations around the area. When I lived there, we all got to use all the trails and we seemed to get along just fine without paid licenses and "you can't go here" regulations. Kinda sad, but at least they did it well. The roads leading back into that area are much nicer than they used to be.

I also had to make a stopover at my old shooting range there at Cave Run. Again, regulated. When I lived there, it was nothing but a couple benches, a shanty roof, and a field. You were your own range officer. Now there are bathrooms, lights, an organized parking lot, and (at least when I stopped by) a dedicated range officer.

I guess everything "grows up" at some point, eh?

They completely redesigned Morehead State traffic patterns. The main road that goes through campus doesn't go all the way through campus anymore. Very strange.

Sorry I missed you man. I thought about calling to see if you were free, but our time was so stressed that I didn't even get to call Bill (my buddy that you met). I'm still trying to figure out how to tell him that I was in town and couldn't call him.

Next time we come, I'm going to spend a whole week AND bring my Jeep.

Yeah, that bypass around morehead has been there for awhile. Really took traffic out of morehead. They put that road in from 64 to the 4 way stop there at the pig out too, that really saves time if youre coming from 64.

That area has really picked up. Not too many weekends go by that the lake isnt packed and twin knobs camp ground isnt full. Ive spent every weekend except for 2 or 3 at caverun this summer. Love that place. :)

I love that place too. Kinda sad to me to see it get all busy though. That was one of the things I loved about it. I was one of a very small handful of people that lived in Morehead year-round while I went to school there. When school was out of session, it was like I had the whole area to myself.

Oh well, even with more people, it's still the best place to spend the summer!

Sorry I missed you when I was there. We'll definitely hook up next time I come over.
