You're right.... probably a more direct tie to mining. But you never know
what's around the corner until you turn it. Count me in. (Cumberland Lake is
one of my all time favorite childhood memories:) Do we need to worry about the
KY-2 thing?

Hey!  Seems like poetry is enjoying a revival on B-P.  Rudy, Lake Cumberland is one of my all time favorite _college_ memories, so I'll bore the old-timers with a reprise of one of my sophomoric poems (coincidentally, this trip occured during my sophomore year):

Lake Cumberland, Kentucky

In the rousing words of a resounding
Yell which frequently echoed; lake, hill, to dell.
Sixteen voices from two houseboats,
The lusty cheer rose from our throats:

THIS PLACE IS JUST BEAUTIFUL!
