Sorry, but we have been moving so fast and doing so much that I haven’t had time to keep posting. I am going to start where we are today and hopefully work backwards to fill in the gaps. Just starting to get ourselves sorted and enjoy being here. Yesterday we drove down from Caves City …

This one is for Raymond Lawn. Sorry it wasn’t the Wild Turkey distillery – this was an hour away. Dropped in on the Jim Beam Distillery on the way to the Mammoth Caves area of Kentucky. We were lucky and managed to get a tour without a reservation after initially being told none were available …

Last photos of my previous pride and joy. It was very sad to see her go but I know the new owners are going to take good care of her. They have plans to trick her up as they are show people with three kids. I know my kids loved her and I am sure …
