Les Fugate Lots of good friends in Magoffin Count since it is next door to my home. I would definitely catch up with Grayson Smith and Holly Ann Ward. I would most likely just head to P-burg to eat, but if I have to stay in town definitely Mi Finca (I think that is the name). Very good tex-mexi sorta place.
Travis M. Scott Family history fact: Asa Creek Scotts crossed the hill from Rockhouse Creek in Magoffin into Asa Creek in Johnson in 1920. My Great-Great-Great Grandfather, Holloway Powers, was the first County Judge in Magoffin County. I always eat at Lee's Famous Chicken when in Salyersville, but I would consult April Cantrell, Brandon Montgomery and Beecher McCarty on local restaurants.
Charlotte Flanary I would visit with my former bosses Mike and Paul Stephens and former co-worker Jenny Combs. This is also the home county of my friend Kevin Minix. I would grab a soft serve at the DQ as I travel down the road.
Katie Mueller Yay! My mamma is from Magoffin, lots of family to see. Go by and see Doug and Sue Blanton Mortimer (they own the aforementioned Lee's and DQ) then call cousin Augusta Helton and get fed and loved on at her house, try and catch Paula Mann Flora while I'm there. My papaw was the judge for awhile, and there's a very handsome photo of him hanging in the courthouse, so I'd be compelled to snap a picture with that, too. Darren Patrick can weigh in on this one, too-he grew up next to my Granny-Aunt Frieda and used to put on the finest magic shows Dixie ever saw.
Darren Patrick Not many wonderful places to eat anymore, but lots of folks to visit. . Thank you, Katie Mueller for reminding that I used to do magic shows lol. The Mortimers are great people and of course there are a few nice Patricks and Salyers as well lol.
Jeff Noble I've got nothing. It is a place I drive through to get somewhere else so I'll just be reading for new ideas.
