Hey, Cynthiana. That's where I live, glad u stopped by our town. Some news about the Rohs Opera House, it is our movie theater and used for plays and all kinds of stuff. My wife's uncle is part owner of Rohs. It is listed as the 3rd most haunted place in Kentucky. It was built in 1871. It's owner's H.A. Rohs and his son Karle are the grandfather and great grandfather of the actor ,Chris O'Donnel the actor. It still has the original seats and lights in it. You should really come by one day and let me introduce you to the owners and let u tour the place and maybe see some ghost. It is really cool inside and would make a great video blog for your channel.

That bird walking down the tracks is called Killdeer, but we always called them Kildee’s. They always have their nest in gravel parking lots on the ground. If you approach their nest the mother always runs off and will flap a wing like it’s injured to get you away from her nest!! Born & raised in Kentucky! Great video Adam👍

That bird is called a killdeer. We're in they're extremely possessive over their nests and often nest in the ballast around railroad tracks as it provides a great camouflage for their eggs. They are also the type of bird that if you get near them and their nest they will act injured and flop around to draw you away from the nest.

It’s a very interesting story.

In the first issue of the comic book, the hospital, the sheriff’s office, and Rick’s house are literally illustrations of the real places in Cynthiana.

It’s pretty cool to see the comic Vs the real place.
