Horses and Bourbon - Welcome to Kentucky

Georgetown, Kentucky
Whispering Hills RV Park

Well, here we are in Kentucky!  We love Kentucky and look forward to enjoying some of the Kentucky Bourbon Trail like we did about three years ago.  I don’t personally like bourbon but the tours and the smells and the countryside makes it all worth it!

We left Norris Dam State Park in Tennessee pretty early this morning.  Kirby didn’t sleep much last night thinking about the road out and the hairpin turns he would have to negotiate.   First stop was the dump station.  Even that was in great disrepair and frustrating.  It was on a hill!  How can you empty your tanks on a hill?  Not very well, that is how.  We emptied what we could and headed on down the hill.  The curves and the steep made it very challenging for Kirby.  As we would go around a hairpin turn, Kirby would watch the road and I would try to look ahead and make certain no one was coming because for part of those turns we were on the wrong side of the road.  Finally we made it to the freeway and headed north.  And what a beautiful drive it was!

It was another short day.  Just 170 miles to Georgetown, KY.  We are going to spend the next week at an RV Park!  We haven’t been in an RV Park in weeks.  We arrived and met the friendly staff who had been holding some of our mail for almost a month.  We were guided to our space and saddened to see no trees, no grass and no space.  We are squeezed between to large RV’s with gravel all around us and a view of the multitudes of children in the pool.  Even if it was nice out there, I wouldn’t go out with all the screaming kids!  But it will be OK.  We have had an incredible month of trees and privacy.  We can do a bit of this!  And tomorrow we are going to a local Strawberry Fest and maybe even a bourbon distillery!
