This is part five in a year-long series I'm currently working on called Kentucky Works.
The focus of the series is to look at people in their professions and how jobs have helped mold traditions and the culture of Kentucky.
Most of the pieces in Kentucky Works will be told solely by the worker.
This is my first attempt at doing a piece where my voice is not really a part of the story.
