Entering Kentucky from West Virginia ……nothing dramatic at all. Kentucky Horse Park Campground taken from our campsite showing hardwood trees and part of the pavillion. Very nice park and weather is perfect – about 80 degrees today and expect 55 tonight.An overly rich man and his wife traveled to England, where the wife said she would like to own a castle. Upon their return to KY, the man had this house built. Duh!!!!! Tom entering the Four Roses Brewery. Beau waited in the truck. We had a very nice tour beginning with a short film showing the process, then a live tour of the distillery, followed by a tasting of 3 of the Four Roses brands (ranging in price from $24-$36 for a fifth. A curved piece of granite atop bourbon aging barrels. Outside the actual distillery. Lots of petunias in barrels and lots and lots of roses about the grounds.
The Capitol of Kentucky located in Frankfort about 20 miles from where we are staying. This is a slightly to the side view of the front.
Good pictures! I wanted to see a photo of all those retired horses....oh and one of you all when you walked out of the Bourbon distillery. lol.
