Frankfort, Kentucky

Between Kirby’s surgery and my dental work, we have spent quite a bit of time at home in our RV and not out and about too much.  We are still in Georgetown, Kentucky – just north of Lexington.

We went out for a bit yesterday but the day really didn’t go as I had planned.  We drove over to Frankfort which is about 30 minutes away on narrow country roads with views to die for and no places to stop and take pictures.  I had some plans to visit a park with an old Civil War fort but we couldn’t find it.  It didn’t come up in the GPS and I could hardly see the maps on my phone because I had forgotten my glasses.  So, we passed on that and it was too early for the pub I had chosen to be open.  It would have worked out fine if we could have found out how to get to the park but even driving around didn’t work because there was too much road construction.

The Farmer's Market in Frankfort.

We are in love with Beer Cheese.  We put it on celery instead of crackers and pretend it is healthy!

This is the garlic that we bought.  Fresh!!

What we did do was visit a nice farmer’s market.  The fun find was the fresh garlic that almost fooled us into thinking it was green onions!  And farm fresh eggs with bright golden yokes.  There was some nice country music going on also.

The Kentucky River as it flows through Frankfort, Kentucky.

We stopped to walk out on the bridge over the Kentucky River and that is when we spotted the sign for the candy factory.  Of course we had to check that out!  Yum!

It is Bourbon everything here in Kentucky!

Such a pretty candy store....we couldn't help but buy a couple of pieces.

We still have another week here so maybe we will have a few more adventures.  Stay tuned!
