Claiming Rule 8, as it's been a year and three days since the last one.

New location. C'mon, guys, let's resurrect some of these!

Rule 8 move. It’s sat a long time so I don’t feel too bad dropping it here. You have to go through Tennessee to get there. I’ve wanted to go here for years. Been there done that. Kentucky bend is that area all by itself way down west.

Weird, a bit of Kentucky surrounded by Missouri and Tennessee. Farmland mostly.
 
The Jefferson Davis Memorial obelisk is so far north in Kentucky it's really in a suburb of Cincinnati Ohio!

if I can get up into Kentucky this spring I'm going to relocate the tag, probably in the south somewhere along I-75 if it's been more than 30 days since the last tagged location was posted.
 
No, It is between Hopkinsville and Russellville, a few miles west of Bowling Green. When I was in school we frequented a bar where JD allegedly lived while going to school at Transylvania in Lexington. It was called Jefferson Davis Inn.
 
Ok, I seevthat now. My online map at first told me there was only *one* city in Kentucky called "Fairview" and that was up near Cincinnati.

But now I see the one you're talking about, and that IT has the monument.
 
The former location of JDI would be a good follow up. It is on High street at Limestone in downtown lexington. There is a historical marker attached to the side of the building. Sadly, the bar is gone and Lush Pile and the Carpets will not be playing.
