r/Kentucky

So I was heading towards Florence on I-71N tonight and saw a strange sight, it was heavy rainfall and fog and into the fog and clouds I saw a spinning bright white light emanating from below the tree line. To me it looked almost exactly like a lighthouse the way it spun. For a second I thought it was a spotlight like the ones they have at clubs or casinos, but it illuminated the sky with a rhythmic spinning pattern just like a lighthouse.

Closest town was Sparta or Sanders, also of note is the Speedway, however I saw the light coming from the right side of the interstate not the left. Is there anything you guys know or have seen let me know. There’s the gallatin county airport but I don’t know if they have anything like that.

Does anybody know what I’m talking about?! Feel like I went crazy trying to find anything online about it.

My family (2 adults and one 1 year old) will be driving from Louisville to Morehead, Kentucky and spending the night for an event. Does anyone have any suggestions or things to do between Louisville and Morehead or good restaurants?
I’m hoping to find things that we don’t typically have in Louisville.
We love antique stores, any food, and just about anything!

How would you figure out how much the sale price would be on property? It's value. I have the property tax bill and it shows what the county values the property at. Is that what sale price would be? Im close to the ky wv border in a very rural, poor county if that helps.

The only thing I can find is that you get one 10 minute break for every 4 hours worked plus a 30 minute unpaid lunch. But what if the scheduled shift is 8 hours? Meaning I'm only working 7.5 hours after deducting the half hour for lunch. I saw somewhere that if you work for more than half of the last 4 hour period, you get another 10 minute break. Wondering if that's true or not. My shift is 4am to noon. They either send me to lunch at 6am or 9 am as my first break and I'm lucky if I get another break after that without it being an argument. Yesterday they started sending other people on lunch at 11am and I hadn't had a 10 minute break yet so I asked "what about my break?" To which she responded "you always get your break and I have to send people to lunch before you leave" and I said "but I need my break before I leave". She tried telling me I can take it at the end of my shift.

Anyway, I'm wanting to bring this up as an issue because it's a recurring thing but I want to know if I'm actually supposed to get two 10 minute breaks or not so I can bring that up as well

“When I looked at the Kentucky Senate primary ballot, I saw names I didn't recognize. Me- someone who covers this state for a living.

If I hadn't heard of these candidates, what are the chances most voters had?

So I reached out to every candidate in the race- Republican and Democrat- and offered them all the same thing: seven questions, same format, same platform. I wanted the candidates who had no budget for campaign ads and weren't invited to the TV debates to have the same chance to share their stories.

Seven said yes. A retired Marine. A horse trainer. A former Secret Service agent who grew up on food stamps. A blacksmith. A decorated combat veteran. A lifelong organizer. A farmer whose wife died after her insurance overruled her doctors.

The two frontrunners- Andy Barr and Daniel Cameron- did not respond.” ~ Shay McAlister

We only have around 3-4 people per shift when usually taco bells are supposed to have 8-10 people per shift. All I ask is before you order anything over 5 items here ask yourself "is this too hard for only 2 entire people to make in under 3 minutes?". I literally can't restock the ingredients or bags or lids or anything until the end of my shift when you're supposed to be doing it less than every single 10 or so minutes because we get one order every 20 seconds and I've got no one to fill in my spot while i restock which only adds to the stress because everyone wants lettuce and I barely have time to GET the lettuce they need because there's too many orders at once

I moved to Louisville from Illinois a few years ago and I’m starting to look into relocating somewhere else in Kentucky. My job would strongly prefer that I stay in-state, so I’m looking for recommendations on areas worth exploring.

I have family in the Northern Kentucky area, so I’m curious about NKY as well, but I’m not really looking to be super close to Cincinnati itself.

I’m a single woman with dogs, and I’ll most likely be looking for an apartment or townhome. Walkability would be a plus. I’m more of a homebody, so nightlife/bars aren’t a huge priority for me.

I’d love suggestions for areas that feel safe, comfortable, and good for someone in their late 20s trying to build a new routine and get out more without needing a huge city atmosphere.

i’m stuck in louisville for school and i would love to know some good birdwatching and hiking spots in northern kentucky
