Its a Fairy Infestation

Wow, its truly troubled times these days. We have attacks on the Capitol, COVID, and my January diet has started. Consequently, I think we need a break. Yep, we need some light hearted humor and whimsy. So, today, I will do a post just for “Laughs and Giggles.” But, what to do? Thankfully, I was tipped off to small neighborhood near Cincinnati with a unique community cooperative. Yes, I know…get to the point. Fine…its a fairy infestation.

In a northern Kentucky suburb of Cincinnati, there is an upper middle class historic district that houses more than humans. As you walk the neighborhood, you can find all sorts of evidence of a fairy infestation. While its difficult to find the fairies themselves, their doors seem to be findable. You would think creatures so adept at concealing themselves would do a better job camouflaging their doors. All you have to do is walk the sidewalks and keep your eyes down. Look along the stairs, exterior walls, rocks, trees and you might see a small fairy doors…

There you go…its a fairy infestation. And, as we wandered the sidewalks, we learned about the culture and lifestyles of these fairies. Furthermore, some of our observations were surprising. Initially, I assumed fairies would have more of a socialistic society. You know, community ownership…share in everything…all for one and one for all crap. But, that was not true at all. An evaluation of the quality of homes quickly revealed that there were “haves” and “have nots” in the fairy housing world. So, I give you the “haves…”

That’s the high rent district. But, not all fairies live so high on the hog. So, I give you the “have nots…”

Beyond the obvious inequity in housing, we noticed other aspects of their society. Apparently, fairies seem to share in human’s love of beer. There is a human tavern in the area called Jerry’s Jug House, which, by the way, serves PBR tall boys. And, predictably, along the side of the bar is a fairy entrance to their area of the tavern, called Fairy’s Jug House.

Finally, just some final pictures of note on our tour of the fairy neighborhood…

I know I said its a fairy infestation. Perhaps, the word “infestation” is not correct. The humans and fairies seem to enjoy each other and co-exist in harmony. Certainly, the East Row Historic District of Newport, Kentucky, is made better and more interesting with the fairies. If you are in the area and its a nice day, take a walk through this unique fairy habitat. And, best of all, its free! Have a great day. PT
