~37 miles from Loretto.

~42 miles from Loretto.

Take a ski lift to the Wild West in the heart of Kentucky cave country. Confused?
~47 miles from Loretto.

An animatronic replica of the town's loud-mouthed bird, dead nearly 200 years, entertains visitors to the county museum. But since he was reprogrammed for a sister city visit to Japan, he only speaks Japanese.
~60 miles from Loretto.
