One of the things I have been gradually working my way through is defining the area each of these Mountain Dreams sites will cover. In general I am trying to adopt divisions of coverage within the states that already exist in some form on the different State Tourism Sites. In some states these divisions come naturally and consistently with our mountain theme, in others not so much.
The state of Kentucky has a division provided by the Southern & Eastern Kentucky Tourism Development Association that fits neatly with the county list I had arrived at from studying the Kentucky map. There were just a couple of counties they included that were not on my original list, so I’ll be happy to use their divisions and add those counties to my list.
Here is the list of counties in the divisions SEKTDA uses listed generally north to south…
Kentucky State Flag
Country Music Highway
Boyd County
Floyd County
Greenup County
Johnson County
Lawrence County
Martin County
Pike County
Mountain Lakes
Bath County
Menifee County
Morgan County
Rowan County

"You are the storyteller of your own life, and you can create your own legend or not." -- Isabel Allende.
"My advice to you is not to inquire why or whither, but just to enjoy your ice-cream while it's on your plate." -- Thornton Wilder
"Sing in me, Muse, and through me tell the story of that man skilled in all ways of contending, the wanderer, harried for years on end." -- Homer, The Odyssey
“Find meaning. Distinguish melancholy from sadness. Go out for a walk. It doesn’t have to be a romantic walk in the park, spring at its most spectacular moment, flowers and smells and outstanding poetical imagery smoothly transferring you into another world. It doesn’t have to be a walk during which you’ll have multiple life epiphanies and discover meanings no other brain ever managed to encounter. Do not be afraid of spending quality time by yourself. Find meaning or don’t find meaning but ‘steal’ some time and give it freely and exclusively to your own self. Opt for privacy and solitude. That doesn’t make you antisocial or cause you to reject the rest of the world. But you need to breathe. And you need to be.”― Albert Camus, Notebooks 1951-1959
