What an interesting family activity to go to the cemetary... what a great opportunity to teach your kids about our country and the sacrifices that were made to get it this way. Your view reminds me of our veiw in Portland! It really does give more inner peace just being able to look at such beauty through the day.<br />Love,<br />GwenGwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12730466866699666093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-979131025140403709.post-48582603471392628442009-07-22T11:57:50.516-07:002009-07-22T11:57:50.516-07:00Isn't it great having an upgrade in living spa...Isn't it great having an upgrade in living space! Supposedly you guys are only about 3 hours from us so we need to get together sometime during school. If you're ever headed up this way you are welcomed to stay with us!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12461982584780675497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-979131025140403709.post-38934052981473578762009-07-15T21:06:13.874-07:002009-07-15T21:06:13.874-07:00Here's a short list (I lived in Lexington so a...Here's a short list (I lived in Lexington so a lot of these things are about an hour from you):<br />*Mammoth Cave (largest cave system in the world) http://www.nps.gov/maca <br />*Keenland (Lexington's Horse Track, it's nicer than Churchill Downs and on Saturday mornings (till 9am) they have a huge $5 breakfast and tons of stuff for kids. The track is open Apr & Oct http://www.keeneland.com/default.aspx<br />*Natural Bridge (you'll want to keep the kids on a leash becuase it is an actual natural bridge: http://parks.ky.gov/findparks/resortparks/nb/<br />*Kentucky has more festivals than any other state. They celebrate everything, it's hilarious: http://parks.ky.gov/findparks/resortparks/nb/<br />*Tour a Horse farm (it's generally free if you call the farm yourself and set up a time): http://www.visitlex.com/idea/horse-farms.php<br />*I hope you've had an Ale-8-One (best soda east of the Mississippi, if you haven't tried it buy some at the store). The factory is tiny and they do tours, it's just east of Lexington, kind of fun and you get a free bottle of soda! http://ale8one.com/tours<br />*Berea Kentucky. This is a small town where Daniel Boone hung out, there is also an art college and TONS of Appalachian crafts http://www.berea.com/<br />*If you want to go big time and travel a few hours for a vacation check out Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg TN. You can get some killer deals on cabins during the off season (and see Dolly Parton at Dolly World): http://www.gatlinburg.com/default.asp <br />*Nashville, it's fairly close and a super fun city <br />*Boonsborough: Daniel Boone's place http://www.parks.ky.gov/findparks/recparks/fb/<br /><br />Honestly, the farther east you go the crazier it gets. Lousiville is basically Indiana, for the real KY experience head east. But there are TONS of hidden treasures in the country side. Make sure someone takes you frog giggin' at least once. And enjoy a hotbrown while you can (will give you a heart attack but it's worth it).<br /><br />If I think of anything else I"ll let you knowCarriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15581762275177668260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-979131025140403709.post-24796125490782696152009-07-15T18:55:40.867-07:002009-07-15T18:55:40.867-07:00Good to hear you made it out here all in one peice...Good to hear you made it out here all in one peice.

It was a border state during the Civil War, it still is...if you drive south of Louisville or Lexington you'll see oodles of Confederate flags. If you want my own personal list of "things you must see/do while in Kentucky" just let me know and I"ll send it on over.Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15581762275177668260noreply@blogger.com
