 Where did the name Rock Bottom come from?

 

This big adventure actually comes from a very humble beginning.  It all started with a little farm, in London, Kentucky,  and a childhood dream of having horses. The farm we purchased  was a bit rough needing everything, ranging from basics like a road and fencing, to bigger projects such as a barn and a home of our own.  Being  young and a bit naive, we had very little idea of all that this piece of land had in store for us. But the work began, and between the initial purchase of the farm and the materials needed for all of our projects, our savings began to dwindle.  As we began our first necessary project, trying to complete the fencing, we hit rock while digging. As you can imagine, this undeniably complicated things. Secondly, as we started to dig the fountain for our home, yes, we hit rock again. At this point, it didn’t come as a great surprise when during our final venture, setting the poles for our barn, we hit rock once more. This farm had taken us to “rock bottom” both financially and literally. We had nowhere to go but up!!  But you could definitely say it was  a rocky start to our grand adventure and that forced us to learn some crucial lessons along the way.
