Gates Family visits Kentucky

IMG_0016

About a week and a half before Spring Break, Jenn and I were talking about what we wanted to do for Spring Break, and Jenn mentioned that she was irritated that others were going to the beach, doing fun things, etc. So we brainstormed in the car for about 30 minutes, drove home, Jenn hopped on the computer, and within a few hours, we had plans in place to visit the next state on our #Gates50States list: Kentucky!

Second Stop was Lost River Cave for real caving! It was a little muddy.

We drove through Lexington on the way home and saw some amazing horse farms. Touring these (along witht he bourbon trail) will have to be for another day. It was a great long weekend. Good job, Kentucky!
