Wow! This is fantastic. My folks are both from Bell County...Pineville and Middlesborol This pic is incredibly nostalgic for me. Now living on the west coast, I really miss my old Kentucky home. Thank you for the beautiful reminder! Cheers!!

Thank you! So glad to hear you enjoyed this photo. I myself have moved to the central part of Kentucky about 18 years ago... away from the mountains. I do go back to visit every one or two months and LOVE it. The Kentucky mountains are beautiful. Oh the smell of a rainy day in the mountains. :)
