- I'm a mountain man myself and thoroughly enjoyed this lens. Thanks for revisiting my learning lens. Looks like I would have more than two lens, but the best way to answer that lies in Clouda9 interview with me where she asked the same question: http://squidreport.crabbysbeach.com/blogs/a-true-southern-gentleman/

- I greatly enjoyed seeing Kentucky through your eyes. I'm a Kansas girl too and my husband is a New Englander. Spending time in New Hampshire is a special treat for me. My prairie childhood never prepared me for the deep blue lakes and massive trees of New England.

- For those who love mountains (that includes me) and don't get the opportunity to live on them, reading your lens makes it feel like almost being there.

- We had peasoup fog here in northern Kansas this week, so my homesickness for the foggy mountains of southeast Kentucky is on a roll. Wish I could wiggle my nose and be there in a flash any time I feel like it. Thanks so much to everyone for visiting and leaving comments.

- I really enjoyed your lens! It was not only a very nice lens about Jackson county but also a way of recognizing your husband. For the last 18 years I've lived in Laurel County, just a few miles outside of Jackson. 5 stars, fav'd and fan'd. I'm also lensrolling this lens to my Harlan County Ky lens.

- I enjoyed the "tour" of Kentucky, where Loretta Lynn is from. My beloved Old English Sheepdog, who died last year, was from Kansas. Check out my lens on my home state of beautiful coastal Maine.

- Thanks so much for visiting and leaving a message in my guestbook. I get really homesick for the Kentucky mountains and creating this lens helped me feel like I was there again. I appreciate your kindness and support.

- Another excellent lens. I am a Giant Squid Greeter and wondered if you had considered working to create more lenses and applying for the program in the future.

- I absolutely loved the pics. Of course I can see them every day but not everyone is as lucky as us. Thank you for showing people how beautiful our part of the world is. I appreciate it more since I have gotten older, I too am a Yankee but from Massachusetts but have called Ky. home for the last 40 years.

My Life in the Kentucky Mountains
The first time my new husband drove me up Big Hill Mountain into Jackson County, I cried. The view of those rugged mountains topped with dense forests touched an ancient chord in my heart and brain and I simply cried with joy...
