Ken Gilpin: How was car from 1950s on Cane Valley Mill Road Comments re photo 60002 Scenic Adair County KY Cane Valley Mill Road Crossing Ken Gilpin writes: A really nice picture but how did you manage to have a car from the 1950's just happen to be on the road that morning? - Ken GilpinThanks, Ken Gilpin - That may be known only to the driver, the good Lord, and Rickie Williams, who may identify it later today. Then, too, the eclectic menu at the Coburg store has a Cuban sandwich coming in the near future, and that may explain it. Whatever, the drive, Friday afternoon and probably even better today, was delightful. - EW 2015-05-02 06:55:36 | Comments | Printable version
