Re: Indians in Kentucky

Hi Bipasha,

Welcome to the south east sub forum of IL! I'm glad you started this thread so that KY ladies can have their very own place here....

About finding more ladies in your city, try the How do I find people living in my city? link. That will give you a list of IL members who live in your city.

My brother was in KY for a few years sometime back and I have this image of a snow filled place in my mind...a picture perfect white Christmas like scene..am I correct? Do share some things about KY here so that people like me who have never visited can get a glimpse of what you see every day...

Thanks and love,
Aarushi

Hi Aarushi...
when no one replied to the thread I htought that not many people are from Kentucky...I am glad that you want to know more about Kentucky...I would surely write about places to visit and the right time to visit these places.I have been to 5 -6 states in the
US but find Kentucky very scenic and beautiful...I would also post some pictures on the place....
The first one
Historical:Birth Place of Abraham Lincoln
More to come....

Wow Bipasha! I did not know that KY was the birthplace of Lincoln! That was a very interesting titbit you have there...

What would be the best places to visit in KY? Would a weekend be enough? Does it make sense to do a winter trip or wait till spring?

love,
Aarushi

Hi Bipasha,

isn't Florence the capital of KY! I used to visit once every year when my best freind was living there. It is a lovely place and one memory that has stayed with me is the shopping complex - the supercenter and all that in one area! It is a lovely place and KY as such is beautiful nature wise.

PS: I have been meaningto write everyday....but..
