re: 50 years ago (April 3, 1974)

I grew up in Lexington also and still remember that day vividly. Started getting pitch black in the late afternoon. Was very eerie looking/feeling outside. I could tell my parents were really worried which kinda started freaking us kids out. Family business used to deliver produce to the grocery store in Stamping Ground, KY which is only 20 miles outside of Lexington and that town was obliterated.
