(FOX 56) — It’s not unusual for a political candidate to launch a campaign on social media, but it’s uncommon for the candidate to be as forward-thinking as William Huffman of Lexington. At just 11 years old, William can’t run for Congress until 2038, but he recently announced on Instagram that he is throwing his hat into the ring now. MORE SPIRIT OF THE BLUEGRASS: William Huffman: “The reason for that is you need momentum to, you know, get there to win,” William said.

OWINGSVILLE, Ky. (FOX 56) —In the Bath County History Museum, you can see all kinds of artifacts—reminders of a bygone area. But recently, one exhibit drew the longest lines, filled with people who wanted to learn more about the day Bath had a shower. On March 3, 1876, chunks of some type of meat rained down on farmland in the community of Olympian Springs, just south of Owingsville. Reports say it happened sometime between 11 a.m. and noon, and the incident lasted about two minutes.
