Today was Horse Day

We have been in Bowling Green for 2 days.   I have tickets to the Corvette Museum and still have not seen the sink hole.

But today we drove hours and hours North to Louisville, KY


One with car, and one without


It was Hot, Hot, Hot ...

We didn't get an early start and we were a bit time challenged so off we went to the Horse Capital of the World in Lexington, KY


This is a large facility where they keep retired champions,  former Kentucky Derby winners


We got there just in time to see the various performances and wander around the various museums (on location)


After the show, we were allowed to see the horses close up, talk to the trainers and pet them


Then we were allowed to take a short rest

  8. Bob skoot ! In those chairs your image is great. My brother's favorite intention is Kentucky Horse Park. He has visited this place many times. Now he is also planning to go again after hisbus tours las vegas. He told me about it. It is very attractive educational theme park. The landscape of this park is well maintained. It is also most attractive tourism place around the world. It is a good-looking place to trip. The staff members are friendly and instructive.
