May 14, 2013. Morehead, Kentucky. The drive.

Tomorrow, we have only five hours of driving until we get to the farm.   Today we had fun.    The day was perfect and once again, the traffic was light.   The last time we drove across Kentucky we drove on divided highways that were not interstates.  This time, all those roads are being upgraded to the interstate level but they don't yet have the numbers on the maps and the GPS, so there is not much traffic, which for us was perfect.

Yesterday we drove through flat delta  farm land.  Bit by bit,  we entered the hills of Tennessee, then Kentucky.  It was a beautiful drive.   Now we are staying in a busy small city called Morehead, right in the middle of the small mountains.  There is a college here and lots of activity.

And Ken and I bought a fancy bottle of Kentucky bourbon and the first thing we did at the motel was drink a toast to Kentucky.  It is a beautiful state.
