SB-100. Powell County

Sherman A. Brown

October 15 at 7:47am ·

#100 is POWELL COUNTY (named for Kentucky's 19th Governor & US Senator Lazarus W. Powell; county seat is Stanton). Where do you eat & who do you visit? ‪#‎KY120Game‬

Scott Barber - I am not making these names up.

— with Jared Smith and 18 others.

Katie Mueller Well. My ex husband's dad's family, as well as a college ex boyfriend's mom's family, all came from Stanton, so lots to do by way of visiting there. Eat at Bruin's, which has, no lie, the BEST coconut cream pie I've ever had in my life. That's all I got, AND I beat Travis. Woo!

Charlotte Flanary Tony Ball and Jose Hollon. Food? I got no idea.

Travis M. Scott Tony Ball, Josie L Hollon, Wyatt Denniston and Judge Combs. Go see some Bluegrass at Meadowgreen Park, one of the coolest venues I've ever seen, stop by Ricky Wasson's guitar shop, go to Miguel's Pizza and get the best hippie Pizza ever.

Katie Mueller Is Miguel's in Powell County? I guess I thought it was in Lee or Menifee. Add that, if that's the case. I also know am not confident about Sky Bridge Station-if it's in Powell, definitely add it. I, personally, think RRG should be all lumped together so I don't have to keep these things apart. And yes-Red River Rockhouse is to die for.

Travis M. Scott Katie, I think Slade is in Powell County. It's somewhere close to the Wolfe County border, but I don't think Wolfe County begins until the ridgeline.

Katie Mueller Further argument for one big RRG County. I'll be Mayor.

Travis M. Scott Let's be honest: the government of RRG County would be some sort of anarcho-syndicalist commune.

Katie Mueller No way. It'd be me pushing for more farm-to-table higher-end organic eateries, a full brewery using spring water from RRG, more camping/climbing/hiking tourism stuff, a way improved, kind of fancy drive/camp-in movie theater set up, a nature photography residency program... I've got that whole thing figured out. Selfishly, the best part is I get to schlepp around the woods with my kid, my dog, and David drinking craft beer and yapping about how great Kentucky is while ruling this domain. Mueller for Mayor of RRG County.

Katie Mueller Also. Lee County really could get in on the action. They're wet, for starters, and could capitalize off of that if they had food worth driving for. Lots of gorgeous woods there, too, good climbing and loads of space for cabin building type folks to take advantage of.

Josie L Hollon I have to say, our county has some of the best places to visit and developing more locations. Miguel's Pizza, Bruins and Hillbilly Cafe are just a few of the local food, we do need to go wet so the craft beer can start, like now. Red River Museum is a great location for some background history (we are having a Pioneer Craft Day Nov 1 so don't forget to come join us). Pilot Knob were Daniel Boone saw the bluegrass is a little jewel of a location if you have not seen it. Mt. View Drive Inn is a great place to watch a movie under the stars in the summer. We also have music in the Stanton City Park and the local talent is awesome.

Jeff Noble Miguel's is in Powell County by about 1 1/2 miles north of the Wolfe line on KY11. It is where I have and will eat.

Travis M. Scott Also, Katie, it sounds like you need to set up residence in Powell County before 2018.

Katie Mueller Well. First I have to get the Commonwealth to collectively agree on a consolidation of a few particular counties. That...that may take a minute. After that, residency and a filing. Check.

Jeff Noble If you know where the dam is on KY11 for Mill Creek Lake, that's where the county line crosses in a straight line. I'd have to go see Tony Ball for starters.

David Stumbo Katie will get my support, on condition that all cars bearing license in OH and IN pay admission. Also, that each individual entering be made to exit with the same (or more) number of beer cans that they brought upon entry.

Katie Mueller ^^^This is why I love him. Mueller-Stumbo for Mayor and V. Mayor. Beer can and Buckeye/Hoosier taxation! Fantastic. Thanks, David.

Katie Mueller I concur with Holly Lynn Harris. FB sometimes just doesn't cut it. A round of cocktails! Marc Wilson or Matt Erwin should coordinate.
