Kentucky Kind of Place

Heaven must be a
Kentucky kind of place.
...Daniel Boone

I love the iconic white fences on Kentucky farms.
But unfortunately, it is more expensive to maintain so many farms are going to black fences. White plank fencing has long been an invariable symbol that you have arrived to the Horse Capital of the World.

Over time, it has changed to mostly black fencing which is easier to maintain and lasts 5 years before being needed to repaint the boards. White fences need to be repainted every two years.

But the fencing is not what defines Kentucky. It's the horses and the history that makes Kentucky so special to thousands of horse lovers around the world.

@yogiw It was out the window at 50 miles an hour. I took several but most had a telephone pole in the way! LOL!

@danette I have never seen them in Florida. BTW, the place I would stay in Indian Rocks Beach was sold 3 years ago and has now been leveled...so very sad. :(
