The Bluegrass 1000: In Pictures (Part One)

Day One: KY Speedway & Elk Creek Winery

Monday kicked off with a scenic drive up to Sparta where the Kentucky Speedway resides. Everyone enjoyed a few laps around the track followed by pictures in the winner's circle. Bishop was so excited to ride in fast *dar* as he refers to them. Adelaide loved being the youngest little Nascar fan ;) After working up an appetite, we stopped in Owenton for a bite accompanied by wine tasting and a tour of the winery. The property is gorgeous and I loved getting my wine education on.

 

 

Day Two: General Patton Museum in Fort Knox

 



Tuesday involved a little bit of history with the General Patton Museum in Fort Knox. Nothing like an educational lesson and interactive activities to explore the past via trivia, quizzes, presentations, and machines. From Fort Knox to Glendale through backroads we stopped for a bite to eat before hitting up Kentucky Down Under for a taste of Australia. To experience a bit of Aussie fun including kangaroos and emus was a real treat.


Stay tuned for more adventures in the great state of Kentucky...
