Kentucky Holler

Lots of junk in the ditch
But the narrow Kentucky roads are often paved

Apparently most cemeteries are at the end of the road on the hill
That way it is a "public" road and maintenance falls to the township

I recognize a few names on this tile

They blew up the tires from the old mobile home trailer
and they held air even after not being used for over 30 years
The new place will be so much warmer
