Robert writes, "This is the end of the Red Reef Trail for the Kentuckians. In our younger days we would have navigated those 'Moki' steps like this group of young hikers did. Previous videos I have watched all showed a rope hanging down to aid hikers in getting past this point. Now, in my Golden Years, my fear of heights has been elevated, and simultaneously my balance has worsened...oh well, we hike what we can.

I wound up talking to the guy in the hat that was closest to me, and found out they were all from Utah. He seemed interested in the hillbillies from Kentucky as much as I was wanting to know what life was like growing up in Utah.

On a side note, the night we checked into our hotel in nearby St George, the clerk told Tammy we were the third couple from Kentucky checking in that night."

Unexpected downpour

2026-05-29 - Frankfort, KY - Photo by Pen
The rainy weather made one last-ditch all-out return in downtown Frankfort on Wednesday evening, thoroughly soaking all the folks who had ventured out onto St. Clair Street for dinner, drinks, or ice cream. Awnings provided a much-needed respite for all the folks who forgot to bring an umbrella.
