Description

Paint Lick is the story of a village just inside the Bluegrass Region of Kentucky and of the life that Doris Burgess Hayek lived there from her birth in 1917 through the 1920s and 30s. In Doris's Paint Lick, neighbors are family and entertainment includes "sitting till bedtime" with friends, pie suppers, community plays, music at school and in the churches, WSBS (whose call letters stand for "World's Smallest Broadcasting Station"), a visit to Coffee Grounds Lucy, games of croquet under the maple tree in the Burgess family's front yard, and-for the children-the thrill of rolling downhill in an oversized tire. More challenging are a bank robbery, fearsome horses, sisterly disputes, chores such as churning and cleaning coal dust off white woodwork, a nighttime intruder, and Mrs. Smith's driving. In Paint Lick, we meet the memorable Burgess family and their friends and some of the village's most colorful characters. Above all, through her vivid stories we share the pivotal experiences of Doris Burgess Hayek's early years and come to love Paint Lick and its people.
