(StatePoint) Anyone who has ever found themselves cruising through eastern Kentucky on Interstates 64 or 75 can attest to the region’s natural beauty. The winding roads are flanked by some of the most beautiful foliage and rolling hills in the world. Off the main road, however, are unique cultures and traditions just waiting to be discovered. Consider this region of the Bluegrass State as your next travel destination.
(StatePoint) For this country’s entire existence, and long before that, the land that is now called Kentucky has helped build the nation into what it is today. The Bluegrass State has contributed more than its share of explorers, diplomats, entertainers, activists, and icons to the national cause.
(StatePoint) When it comes to DIY moves, snafus are almost expected. Perhaps you have your own horror stories about broken furniture, last-minute cancellations or friends who mysteriously weren’t available on moving day.
(StatePoint) Every year the Bluegrass State is home to more than 700 festivals and fairs, all of which celebrate some aspect of Kentucky culture, food, arts and so much more.
(StatePoint) Summer is peak moving season—and peak pricing season, too. In fact, nearly half of all U.S. moves take place between Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends each year, according to U-Haul, and, with gas prices on the rise, costs are expected to reach new heights.
(StatePoint) Spending time in the Kentucky wilderness during the day is an unforgettable experience, but there are some one-of-a-kind “noctourism” sites that shouldn’t be missed. Whether you’re a nature enthusiast, an amateur astronomer, or simply have a thirst for adventure, there are many reasons to consider making Kentucky your next travel destination.
(StatePoint) Kentucky has more than its share of history. From the last 250 years of American history to the history of the Indigenous Tribes that lived here for centuries before that, all of it adds to Kentucky’s rich and vibrant story.
(StatePoint) Carbon monoxide (CO) is a poisonous, flammable gas that is impossible to see, smell or taste — making it easy to assume you’re safe when danger may already be present. So, whether you’ll be vacationing away from home, or planning a “staycation” this summer, take extra steps to help protect yourself and your loved ones from CO.
