The editor:
It seems that one of the greatest revenue builders for the state of Kentucky is to continue to develop, improve and publicize our Kentucky Park System.
No doubt, Kentucky already has one of the best park systems in the nation. They are beautiful, well run and make a good impression on the general public.
With a national publicity program sponsored by the Kentucky Park System, Kentucky Government and all its citizens, we could bring a constant stream of visitors from all the other 49 states and many countries around the world.
This added revenue would benefit all Kentuckians as well as restaurants, motels, filling stations and provide Kentucky Government with more financial aid to operate with. This aid then could be used in education, roads, and many other programs that would benefit all Kentuckians.

Abortion advocate change of mind

Large sign is unsightly
While driving to Morehead today, I was dismayed to see that Cracker Barrel has erected one of their typical ultra-high “signs on a stick.” I somehow thought that Morehead’s sign ordinance would protect our community from this unsightliness and that the sign would be the same height as those of surrounding businesses.

Political cartoon was off the mark
I don’t know how the political cartoons you publish are chosen, but I take exception to the one in the Dec. 27, 2011 issue of the paper. The cartoonist obviously does not agree with Time magazine’s choice of The Protester as Person of the Year.
