Great to see our friend & @brownforman VP @lesfugate last week before his presentation at the @spcchamber luncheon. We shared many of the great things happening here and presented him with a bottle of Somerset's own @HorseSoldierUSA to add to his collection.

Recapping the 2024 election, @FERChatterjee and @EricHyers, moderated by @LesFugate of @BrownForman, are discussing their analysis of how the results will impact Kentucky and the nation.

Kensington forced herself to wake up and join us! #kyelect
