I hate to say this, but that water tower photo is from Florence, Kentucky… not in Texas. I’ve driven by it hundreds of times…

Hahaha – thanks for setting me straight – a random photo I did not earmark, so just assumed. Glad you found me.

you’re welcome. I lived in Cincinnati for several years – and that water town puzzled me each time I drove over the river into Kentucky… very interesting. I’m in Texas now – and much better than when I was in Cincinnati! Glad I found your blog.

Likewise. You might want to link up to the photo challenge I posted that photo for – it’s just for silly signs. That water tower made me chuckle.

Good morning! Is this from Florence Tx? Scratching my head as to why y’all would’ve been in Florence … off the beaten path … then again, that might’ve been why!
