Great expense was taken to bury overhead utility lines, resulting in spectacular western-oriented panoramas of rolling Bluegrass hills. Farm alumni include CURALINA, GOODBYE HALO, GONE WEST, LUCKY DEBONAIR, and PRINCE WILL I AM, to name only a few. And, immediate neighbors include Calumet, Darby Dan, and Stonestreet!
