Joel Ray’s Restaurant in Hodgenville celebrates its 54th anniversary this weekend.

Joel Ray Sprowls bought the restaurant June 6, 1959, and for 14 years it operated on a 24-hour, seven days a week schedule. Several Grand Ole Opry superstars have dined there, including Faron Young, Tammy Wynette, Bill Monroe, Englebert Humperdink and the Johnny Cash Band.

Blossoms of all shapes and sizes, entwined with rock patterns greet traveling cars and bicyclists on a short section of Howardstown Road.

The landscaping outside the home of Anne and Murrell Smith, has caused many a driver to stop in their tracks or ease slowly down the road to soak in all the beautiful colors and handiwork.

Anne, the master landscape artist, has worked on the project for four years.
