Beattyville, KY and lost jobs, Thanks Trump!!
This is part 2 of Eastern Kentucky's poor job market and the loss of the coal industry. Even though Trump did sign an executive order to bring back coal, not a single coal mine has reopened, nor does it look favorable. Now, with the healthcare industry at risk, and if Donald Trump gets his way, Eastern Kentucky will have the worst economy in the entire United States. Yes you heard that right the entire United States. So when Donald Trump says that he is bringing back jobs you might want to think again. Donald Trump is going to do with United States exactly what he did with his businesses, and that is too drive it straight into bankruptcy! Never in history has a president lied so much and done so very little to help any of the middle and lower classes. I would also like to add that I'm a registered Independent so I try my best to remain bipartisan, but with what Trump has already screwed up in such a small amount of time I really believe this country is on a very thin piece of ice. Something has to change and it has to do so quickly. Thanks for watching my videos.
Abandoned Houses in Kentucky
No vacation is complete until I run into a few abandoned buildings. These were 2 of the homes we found while out in Kentucky for the weekend. One was out by an old distillery which used to be abandoned and now it is getting fixed up (you can see part of the distillery at the start of the video). The other was a house that my boyfriend knew the owners many years ago, now lays in ruin.
Hope to do more weekend adventures like so to share with you guys. have other places planned just need to find the time to get out and explore more.
If you have any questions be sure to ask.

Jesse James in Kentucky | Kentucky Life | KET
Russellville was recovering from the Civil War when an old Confederate guerrilla gang from Missouri that was up to no good made its way to town one day in 1868. Among the men, many believe, was the infamous Jesse James (1847-1882).
The gang robbed the Nimrod Long Banking Co. of Russellville on March 20, 1868. The bank president, Mr. Long himself, was shot and wounded. Jesse James later denied being there. However, it is certain that Jesse knew Kentucky well. His father, a minister, was born in Logan County, and his aunt lived in Adairville, providing him a convenient Kentucky hideout.
Jesse's gang hit a Kentucky bank again on April 29, 1872, when they robbed the Deposit Bank of Columbia, and killed an unarmed cashier. On Sept. 3, 1880, they held up a stagecoach on the road from Mammoth Cave to Cave City.
The years went by in a blur of bank and train robberies as the outlaw's legend grew. It all ended for Jesse James in 1882, when he was shot in the back of the head in his own home in St. Joseph, Missouri, by a trusted ally who wanted to collect bounty money.
The Russellville bank robbery is re-enacted every year at the Logan County Tobacco and Heritage Festival. The Adairville home where Jesse hid out with his aunt's family still stands today.
Start of Hike to Cherokee Arch
On September 28, 2014, Lloyd and I looked for Cherokee Arch in the Red River Gorge just outside of Beattyville, Kentucky in the Daniel Boone National Forest. Along the way, we also visited Rat Window #1, Rat Window #2, and Mushroom Arch. At the start of the trip, we discuss our plan of attack.
The Ghost Town Project
The Ghost Town Project: an initiative that will bring ghost towns back to life, one building at a time. This passionate and engaging project will bring locals and experts together to rebuild and restore one landmark building in each location. As we uncover the intimate story of how and why a site was abandoned, we will also look to the future with our restoration team of historians, architects and conservationists.
The Ghost Town Project is a trans-media project that will engage a global audience through our website, Facebook, Twitter feeds, dedicated YouTube channel, Kickstarter campaigns and television.
