I had a really great time with Scott on Paducca Kentucky. I can't thank Scott his wife and mother enough. I was treated like a king in Kentucky!

The floodwall on Paducca is very special. Not only does it protect the town from flooding but it has been decorated with the most amazing artwork along its entire length almost. I took pictures of several works that I liked.

This is the vs planet dollar bill signed by my friends on vs planet I have met along the way. Mark I will mail this to you as I forgot to ask you to sign it when we met. This is a special bill and I wouldn't spend it if it were my last.



Today is my birthday...and what a great way to spend it! My friend Scott from cap picked me up from Marion and we drove to Paducca Kentucky. Scott took time to show me around town..Paducca is a nice town with lots of history. I really liked the cool muriels painted on the flood wall which was built by German pows.

The town was badly flooded in 1938 and in Scotts shoe shop there is a high water mark.from that flood. It must have been one hell of a time for the people here back.then.

It was good to.pick.up some of Scotts guitars and make some noise...its been a while since I played and Scott has a cool scalloped ne k.Stratocaster.

We went out ans had a hug steak for dinner and then to.a local.bar where I got a surprise birthday cheescake...that wad so nice of Scott and his wife Lisa.

I really like paducca..its a nice clean.and green town.
