Continuing on our Land That We Love Tour we are now in Kentucky. No photo worthy events on our trip from North Dakota to Omaha Nebraska and then from Omaha to St. Louis, Missouri. From St. Louis we drove to Kentucky and we had a surprise that I-64 east and west were closed this weekend in Louisville. We had to do some map maneuvering to get us past the closure and back onto I-64 to continue to Shelbyville and Georgetown. On that maneuver we were able to stop into Cave Hill Cemetery for a little while. I would have enjoyed staying there longer but we had a reservation to get to. The photo above is from Cave Hill.
For dinner Red State Barbecue in Georgetown was recommended to us. Since we were staying in Georgetown on Sunday night we decided to try it and are glad we did.
Brisket with a side of beans and corn pudding, delicious!!
Today, Monday, we are heading north a bit to the Ark Encounter in Williamstown, Kentucky. After our ‘Encounter’ we are heading south toward Tennessee with an overnight stop in Berea, Kentucky.
Long days on the road with little catch up time when we get to our lodging has limited my visiting time. Thanks for your understanding. I’ll come around when I can. Hope all is well…

Hello,
Your road trip sounds awesome. The BBQ looks delicious.
Take care, enjoy your day and the week ahead.
Thank you Eileen.
…you sure are on the move.
We’re trying to take the stairs instead of the elevators, too. 🙂
Oh, you’re in my territory (or were)–the beautiful state of KY. Berea is about 45 minutes from us and is a charming artsy college town. So much to see in our diverse state but I know you are on the move. Enjoy your trip across country.
Hi Elaine, We are staying at the Boone Tavern tonight and exploring the surroundings. Waving to you!
I wondered if you might eat at the Boone Tavern. I ate there once with a group of ladies and enjoyed the atmosphere. I’m sure you will enjoy the accommodations.
You are certainly adding up those miles! Enjoy the journey!
2500 to date! 🙂
Yummy to your BBQ meal! You’re traveling through some of my fav states — looking forward to seeing Tennessee, which I really liked and where my grandpa was born. Continued safe travels!
Blessings,
Aimee
Hi Aimee, Thank you!
I’m impressed you are posting on this journey! Have fun and enjoy the grand tour.
Thank you, Martha Ellen.
I love visiting old cemeteries. For many years we were volunteers at NYC’s oldest cemetery–we learned so much history from its “permanent residents”! That BBQ looks sooooo delicious! Enjoy the rest of your trip!
Pat, that would be an interesting volunteer job!
Beautiful pics! Thanks for this tour. God bless you and yours.
Hello Maristella, God bless you and yours, also!
Your trip sounds wonderful. You are getting closer and closer to us. Berea is 400 miles away from where we live in MD.
So close…yet so far away! It would be fun to do the NE someday!
I’m sure you planned your road trip so that you stopped at meaningful places along the way. It sounds as if you’re covering a lot of ground. Enjoy your travel experience, your reservations and meals.
Linda P., We are heading to a wedding and we have stopped at places we’ve wanted to see for a while now. The USA is so big it takes a lot of miles to get across it!
To walk a cemetery is so interesting. Look at those stones! Your meal looks oh so yummy.
