Matt Osborne Carolyn Belcher is the first person to come to mind and I'm stopping by Cave Run Lake to catch a Muskie.

Jennifer Hacker My dad. And again, my dad's house. He is an amazing cook. He makes the best ribs and potato salad. Oooh and cucumbers and tomatoes in vinegar.

Jeff Noble Neither person nor food comes to mind. But what a beautiful place, especially this time of year with springs a' sproutin' on those green-gorgeous hills. I wrote about Bath County on my blog, entry #473, back in 2009. Two places in Bath I haven't seen but want to are the Pioneer Weapons WMA and the site of the old Olympian Springs Resort which was in operation at various times from the late 1700s to the 1940s.

Marc Wilson It was Bath County where a guy from Texas working on my campaign looks out the car window at a farm field with acres of tobacco and asks "what is that?" I laughed that he had never seen tobacco in the ground before.

Lauren Elizabeth Ingram I always think of my mom's Great Aunt Wawa, who lived in Fleming County but went to Saturday night Mass in Bath County so she could pick up beer on the way home.

Jennifer Hacker I talked to dad and he said Green's. I grew up in the kitchen with Mrs. Green and Mrs. Powell. It took forever to get your food because they didn't cook it until you ordered it, but it was worth the wait. I haven't been in years.

Kim Jenkins Although I'm not in on your game, I just had to comment on this one because my Dad's side of the family is originally from Bath County and yes, legend is that the springs are medicinal. I just sold the family farm in Kendall Springs earlier this year ...See More

Sherman A. Brown Kim - this game is not meant to be exclusive. I hope people don't feel that way. I tagged people to get more participation.

Kim Jenkins Oh no, I didn't feel that way, at all! I know that most of you, if not all of you, have worked on campaigns recently so you all have those things that first come to mind. I didn't mean to make it sound exclusive!
