Memorial Day Sights of Summer 2025-05-27 - Fairplay, KY - Photo by Veronica Arnold. Veronica writes, "Memorial Day is aliken to the start of summer. Summer means many things, and in our community agriculture is the vital backbone. This means fresh green pastures, the smells of freshly cut hay in the air, and hearing the cows in the fields. We thank God for the growing seasons that is upon us and maybe leave home with a bit of extra traveling time to leave space for the tractors on the road. There is beauty in all seasons. Take time to look around and appreciate it." Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
