Linda I know of two other operating ferries in Kentucky besides Black's Ferry between Monroe and Cumberland counties. There is a state ferry operating at the end of Tates Creek Rd between Fayette and Madison counties across the Kentucky river.

Anderson Ferry (toll) operates in northern Kentucky along Route 8 at Constance going across the Ohio River to the west side of Cincinnati's Saylor Park, a block from former Cincinnati Reds star Pete Rose's boyhood home. --Robert

It appears that The Journal-Enterprise does not want anyone to read the full article. The link takes you to a page where they want you to log in or subscribe. This is the case with many sites that post stories and then provides a link to the full story, not just yours. I can't understand why a publication thinks someone is going to subscribe just to read one article. When I run into one of those, I just close it out. If it is a story that may have state or national coverage, I will do a search to find another publication that has the story without all the log-in or subscribe baloney. I am not mad at you because you were probably not aware of this. --Harry

I guess I'm splitting hairs, but the Valley View Ferry is also operated by the Kentucky Transportation cabinet. It is located just outside Lexington and connects 3 counties. It is also considered to be the longest operating ferry in the state. Please read about it on Wikipedia. --Sam

FYI Back during my firefighting days we used the ferry a lot. They were available for transporting passengers 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with the exception of Sunday mornings between 10 AM and 11ish. They transported church goers, changed oil in the engine while church was going on and were ready to transport those church goers on their way home from church. I'm assuming they still keep the same schedule. --BJF

Linda--Thank you so much for planning a great fall outing for us. I'll bet the grandkids have never been on a ferry before!!!! Thanks!! --Dick and Mary

"We are grateful for the diligent work of fiscally responsible House and Senate members who came together to pass HB1. I applaud their dedication to delivering much-needed financial relief for Kentucky's quasi-governmental agencies and regional universities. This legislation provides a viable path forward for our mental health agencies, rape crisis centers, local health departments, and other community agencies whose dedicated employees provide critical services to citizens across the Commonwealth. While we have much work yet to do in addressing our $60 billion public pension crisis, HB 1 represents a positive step forward. I am confident that with continued collaboration and hard work, we can save our pension system and preserve it for the thousands of hardworking men and women whose financial futures depend on it."

Hope-filled reunions
are beautiful to live through
