Welcome to
Paint Lick Reflections
the Web home of the former
quarterly magazine about 
Paint Lick, Kentucky!


Four volumes (years) of Paint Lick Reflections
were published before the magazine went 
into retirement (or semi-retirement?). 
Only a limited number of copies are available 
for five of the issues and those are available ONLY 
in complete sets for $112 (or $118.72 with tax, 
if you live in Kentucky). They won't last long, 
though, so if you are only just finding this site--
it's not too late to get all 16 issues. 
Go to Back Issues for more information 
on how to order.

Paint Lick Reflections (ISSN #1539-7327)
gave readers a chance to rediscover 
(or discover for the first time)
the joys of small-town, rural Kentucky life--
past, present, and future!
Readers shared stories and photos about 
their childhood or their family and friends 
here in Paint Lick. Genealogical and 
historical information also was provided.
And there always were stories 
about life in today's Paint Lick, too.


Paint Lick Reflections debuted in Spring 2002
with a 40-page keepsake-quality publication.
It was retired in early 2006 when the 16th issue was mailed. 
A limited number of back issues still are available, ranging from 44 to 60 pages each! Hundreds of pages of
Paint Lick history and folklore have been preserved,
thanks to a core of readers and contributors
who volunteer on this project. Thank you!!!


Rita Mackin Fox, the editor/publisher, has lived in Paint Lick 
with her family  since 1995, and quickly fell in love 
with the place. She dedicated the publication to Dean Cornett, 
one of the first President Bush's Points of Light, who inspired the editor 
to stick her neck out and start this magazine. 
Read more about this amazing woman 
in the Spring 2002 and Summer 2003 
editions of Paint Lick Reflections.
(We all miss you, Dean!)
