Yes Kentucky is usually this green except for last year when we had the drought.  Our weather is funny and due to this, we have more cases of breathing problems then most areas (high mold & pollen).  Normal summers start out with highs in the 70's  going into the high 80's low 90's by August but just last week we had in the mid 90's.  Many times it's not the heat here but the humidity.

I do love going to Louisville, it is one of the few big cities that I feel safe walking down the streets.  With my son going to school there and one of my best friends living there it seems like I'm there at least once a month.  In fact I'm headed  there one day next week.  Another son is coming in from Alaska so we are going to go 'play' there for a day
