Lexington, KentuckySubmitted by Jessica Larson Lexington: land of amazingly beautiful & sturdy slave made limestone walls, bluegrass (only blue during sunset), horse fences that denote class and social status (wire vs wood, 3 boards vs 4 boards, single vs double, black vs white), whisky disterlleries (Woodford Reserve is the most beautiful), and of course: Keenland in April. Need I saw more? It is not my "hometown" as in I grew up here, but it is my current hometown b/c my home is here for the next year. |
