                                    The Most Beautiful Place

    The most beautiful place for me is our summer Ranch in Columbia

Kentucky.   I adore the beautiful property with 500 acres of lush green grass

and a running creek surrounding the whole property.   There are large ponds,

mountains and hills, when you enter the property you must go around lots of

winding curves that would scare most visitors, but not me I love the

adventure of what lies ahead.   I love to go out side every morning early and

feed my Horses and listen to the birds chirping.   Hummingbirds are

always abundant in the summertime they are so cute!

    I have two four-wheeler’s and my brother and I love to ride them down

the hill to the 108 year old house on the other end of the Ranch.   It has so

much charm and mystery! Sometimes I just sit and wonder what it was like

back then for the people who first lived here, I know that they traded with the

Indians on this property, because there is a trolley that is old and rusted that

Was used to trade out merchandise over the creek back then.   In the winter time it is really quite charming . The creek freezes over so every winter

we have ice fights and sometimes try to cross the creek without falling in.

    My younger brother Holden loves to take the telescope outside every night

and star gaze, we really enjoy this, because in Kentucky there is a lot more

stars in the sky, there must be 100,000 stars in the skies, and the

moon is so large and unique looking it‘s truly amazing to me.   Sometimes we

light a bon fire and roast marshmallows around the fire and let off fireworks.

I have 38 Tennessee walking Horses on the Ranch and they are so pretty to

watch as they gallop across the hills of the property.   I enjoy taking them in

the barn and brushing their coats and feeding them hay.
