Commonwealth Lodge Elizabethtown

Headed off from Nasville this morning after piking out last night. We went to grab some dinner at an Applebee's Bar & Grill before heading to a bar with live music near the motel, After a steak and shrimp with mashed potatos and a couple of Mango flavoured cocktails, I was all done in and could barely waddle my way back to the motel. Only dr...

Oh the wonders of nature and nature-stream restoration projects I volunteer on. Bernheim offers an abundance of programs for schools and families that educate and allow you to help conserve some nature!

Also, this park has many, many hiking trails. Yay hiking! We all know how much I love that. :)

Black Mountain to Hodgenville  Kentucky.   After 1/2 day of clean up and packing the RV, we set out for a party at lovely lake Tomahawk.  Our local park is one of the most beautiful I have seen. Seeing the sunset over the mountain range provides a certain amount of relaxation and serenity that is hard to put in words.  We departed from Black Mou...

It was a travel day like all other travel days or so I thought. For the most part, my travels have gone very well, uneventful and that's the way uh huh uh huh I like it. My colleagues who have worked and traveled with me know that I can alway be found traveling with my Bose portable IPod player. I typically don't leave home without it as it is u...

My riding partner, Deb Hobbs, and I left home about 2:30p with Bear loaded up and tied down in the back of the Toyota Truck. Star came with us to drive the truck back to Indy when we decided we had gone far enough south to run out of the snow and cold. We drove to Elizabethtown KY, got a room at the Motel 6. Very spartan accommodations but reas...

02 Sep 08- Well, here we are heading home... So I guess this means that the perfect wedding is over.. I can't believe that the perfect wedding is over so soon. Right now we are outside of Somerset/London KY. Did I mention that the perfect wedding is over. We had an absolutely wonderful time in Asheville with Steve and Janna. We spent yesterday b...

The plan for the rest day was destroyed by hotel policy demanding that breakfast end at 9 o'clock. This did not stop some of the more energetic members of the team. In an attempt to avoid a repeat of last rest day we were determined not to waste the entire day, thus we have written the blog and most importantly we have collected our James Bond D...

We awoke this morning hugely excited that we would be passing the birth-place of the great Abraham Lincoln, however this was eclipsed by the prospect of an even greater man; Colonel Sanders, in other words we were going to KFC. Such was the anticipation that Fred and Ben created an anthem worthy of the Colonel. It goes as follows (to the tune of...

We leave the hotel and head to the range. We turn onto the range driveway and make our way over the one lane steel bridge which spans a small stream as we get closer our first sight is a warning sign . Now even more intrigued after the warning we pull into one of KCR's parking fields and park for the day. After getting our passes and the like we...

We check into the Econo lodge in Radcliff, its not a bad place I'd stay there again. After we dropped off our bags in the room we set out to check out this new area, we started by heading out down the Dixie highway towards the gun range just to get an idea of where to go in the morning, along the way we passed the famous Fort Knox less than 20 m...
