Hi everyone! Hope you all had a great weekend!
This week I am sharing some posts about where I am from & my favorite local spots!
To kick the mini series off I decided to shoot this look right in the heart of downtown Henderson! Kind of a funny story my, mom and I dodged some traffic between the lunch hour and 5 P.M… but we had fun doing it, so that’s all that really matters, right?
Here are some fun facts about Henderson!

- Before WWI Henderson was said to have more billionaires per capita than any other city in the world.
- Our first post office was established in 1801
- W.C. Handy use to live in Henderson. Each year we offer one of the largest outdoor free concerts in the U.S. in honor of him.
- A few scenes from the League of Their Own were filmed in downtown Henderson.
- One of our main attractions is John James Audubon Park.
- We are known for one of our Horse Parks, Ellis Park, formerly named Dade Park.
- The only major sporting event we have ever held was in 1994 and it was the Bambino World Series.
- Nearly 10,000 acres of our city is wetland.
- Henderson ranks in Kentucky’s Top 3 corn and soybean producers.
