Midgettravels is on the road again. We have several trips planned this year, but this one is our most ambitious. We're heading to the British Bash in Louisville, KY. We plan on stopping in Bowling Green, KY to see the Corvette museum across the street from the assembly plant. We wanted to tour the plant, but unfortunately, they are retooling for a new model and it is closed for now. We'll then go to Louisville to check out Churchill Downs, Louisville Slugger and other places of interest before the show on Saturday. On the way home, we are going to Paris, KY. for a stop at Claiborne Farm to pay our respects to Secretariat.
Our M.O. has changed for this trip. We usually leave early in the morning to avoid the traffic leaving Atlanta, and because it is nice and cool. But, since our first leg to Bowling Green was a long one, we decided to leave the afternoon before and break up the leg. So, we left around 3:30 pm, made it out of Atlanta after an hour or so and continued on our back road route. It was warm when we left, but tolerable, but it got cooler, esp. as we traveled tree lined roads. We stopped at Edna's in Chatsworth for a wonderful homestyle meal, then continued on to Cleveland, TN where we spent the night. That will give us an easy drive tomorrow to Bowling Green and time to visit some friends and see the Corvette museum.
We'll try to update daily, so stop back and follow our adventure!
