Historic Midway, Kentucky – Honoring Our Veterans
A very typical scene from rural towns in parts of Kentucky, Indiana and Ohio that I have visited, where local residents hang up street banners recognizing, and honoring the sacrifices of war veterans from many eras, from World War II, up through the present day. I imagine scenes like this are common place in other states in the Midwest as well. This particular photo comes from Midway, Kentucky, which is name Midway because it is half way between Frankfort, Kentucky’s capital, and Lexington, one of Kentucky’s largest cities, the heart of the bluegrass region, and self-proclaimed as the Horse Capital of the United States. Midway was founded in 1835.
