State of Romance visits Kentucky at USA Today's HEA Blog at this link. Although I was born in Kentucky, my parents moved six weeks later. Since then, I have driven through Kentucky once - I didn't even stop to check it out! So I was intrigued to learn more about the Blue Grass State from romance authors.
Kentucky is home to the Mammoth Cave National Park. From its website (link),
Mammoth Cave National Park preserves the cave system and a part of the Green River valley and hilly country of south central Kentucky. This is the world's longest known cave system, with more than 400 miles explored. Early guide Stephen Bishop called the cave a "grand, gloomy and peculiar place," but its vast chambers and complex labyrinths have earned its name - Mammoth.
