I enjoyed this home movie for the various clues as to the who, where, and when of the footage. Numerous vehicle indicate that the year is likely 1961. Road signs at the entrance to a covered bridge indicate the county line between Fleming and Bath Counties (in Kentucky). Several interesting business signs were filmed, "Tele-Tec Service, Larry's Pizza, Pepsi-Cola, the R.G. Gillingham Fish Company, a vintage Pure Oil sign along with the full service gas station. There is also an interesting shot at takeoff of a small airplane. Much of the footage is in winter with snow.
