Today is Admission Day for Kentucky, the 15th state, admitted to the Union on June 1st, 1792.
The first time I was in Kentucky, I thought I was in Ohio.
If you’ve been to the Cincinnati airport (airport code CVG), you know what I’m talking about. The Cincinnati airport, which I foolishly believed was in Cincinnati, Ohio […]
I’ve toured a city by car, bus, train, moped, bicycle, motorcycle, scooter, and on foot. Each mode of touring offers different options and varying perspectives on a city.
