Looking southeast toward Fairplay

Vicky writes, "I’m on the highest point at the Hunter Place farm looking southeast toward Fairplay. Just finished mowing off the last bit of burrs that had cropped up. Can’t have those sticky things in the girls tails. This plat of land was given to my grandfather Josiah Hunter in the mid 1850s by the Governor of Kentucky in the form of a land grant of 330 acres then. Now only 60 acres." Comments | Permalink
