Kentucky

On the Friday before my parents left, we took another day trip, this time down to Kentucky. We drove from Indianapolis, to Louisville, to Frankfort, to Lexington and made it back to Indy just before the largest storm since the early 1900s hit.

Our first stop was Churchill Downs in Louisville.


In Frankfort, we toured the Kentucky state capital. (My dad is the assistant majority leader for the House of Representatives in Idaho, so when we are in other states, we always migrate towards the state's capital city to look at the various capitol buildings...I been to many capitol buildings, but you know the odd thing...I don't think I have ever been in Utah's....anyways)

After the capitol, we ate lunch and then went and toured Buffalo Trace Distillery. That's right, a bourbon distillery. Turns out 98% of the world's bourbon is made in Kentucky. The tour was actually very interesting.
