We stopped in at Bardstown along the highway to look at the civil war museum and the historic original Bardstown. They'd moved some old bulidings from around the area to the one spot and it was a bit like the Telegraph Station in Alice Springs where you could walk around looking into them and seeing how people used to live.

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. :)

... woods.  Except for the mostly paved roads  we probably turned the clock back at least 100 years or more.  Tiny farms, tiny towns rolling hills.  It looks like a cliche.  After completing the 100 mile trip, we get there with about 30 minutes to actually see the birthplace of Lincoln.  Its not anything too exciting, especially not worth the harsh road trip but we felt fulfilled  seeing the resized remade log cabin inside a ...

... and he couldn't get airborne. The seagull swam with the fish in his mouth to the shore and managed to get the fish partially on the shore. The bird then flew out of the water to the shore to complete the hunt when the fish seemed to come back to life, escape, and swim off.

... up and headed back to the ride. Steve and Janna invited us back to their house for a very lovely dinner of steak, hash browns, pasta and salad. For desert they served us a delicious chocolate cake that appeared to be wedding cake. We went back to the cabin after saying our goodbyes and realizing that the perfect wedding was over. We started to ...

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 DVD's from the post office and ...

... so get down to KFC, for some home style cooking, only at the colonel's KFC (chorus) Composer: Fred Mahon & Ben Leigh Supporting Artist: Rolling Stones However, few things could live up to such expectations and the KFC didn't; they didn't even sell chips and the chicken was forgettable at best!

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 ...

... less than 20 mins from our hotel. We found the range and headed back making a stop at Otter creek state park which is right off the Dixie highway. What a cool place, we took a walk through the woods there and drove through the park stopping at the banks of the Ohio river. There are railroad tracks that run parallel to the ...
