Mayslick, KY

we're in a gigantic beautiful haunted farm/mansion in Mayslick, Kentucky. (May's Lick?)
it's awesome. you can see for miles in every direction. "town" is like 15 miles away. it get's so quiet here, it freaks me out. Simon and Laurie (our homestays) are benevolent and hilarious, and they feed us into food comas every night.

the local folks shared with us a loud and tipsy halloween at a bar called "the Bank", then on to a late night diner where delicious hangover-prevention food was like 3 bucks a pop.

i hope we come here for a week every year. if they'll put up with us.
