Not All Happy with Plan to Return Boone's Name to Parkway

Not all lawmakers are pleased with the plan to once again rename the parkway between London and Hazard. State Representatives Tommy Turner and Marie Rader think it would be waste of money to once again install new signs along the parkway.

We just drove through Kentucky. I was both shocked and appauled to find the Daniel Boone Parkway had been renamed.

How could you take Daniel Boone's national heritage and throw it out the window because of 'pork barrel' money? You should be ashamed of yourself.
