It's been almost 8 months since the historic ice storm and we're now covered in snow again. It totally doesn't feel like it has been that long.
Here we go again.... into the unending work of winter

Since y'all liked Lick Creek Falls so much, here is a wet water falls along Bark Camp Creek. This is another phenomenal south central Kentucky hike in Daniel Boone National Forest. #travel #Kentucky #hiking #forestbathing #danielboonenationalforest #waterfall

Back from New Year's Day 2019- my most favorite falls, Lick Creek Falls, Daniel Boone National Forest in South Central Kentucky.
Prime waterfalling season just started down there and it's a magical time of year!
