We got up and out early this morning to start our 2-day journey to Nashville. We don’t like to drive too far in one day. We usually stick pretty close to 200 miles a day. That is about as much truck time as Peanut and I can take. We skirted Cincinnati on the bypass and got off I-75 onto I-64 just before we got to Lexington. This was a little out of our way—we usually take I-71 out of Cincinnati to Louisville, KY, but we wanted to see something a little different in Kentucky than the same old stuff. The area all around Lexington is beautiful horse country and we were not disappointed today. The drive across southern Ohio on state route 32 we great also. It was a nice 4-lane all the way to I-275 with very little traffic.
We got to Elkhorn campground early afternoon, just in time for the Halloween festivities to start. We had no idea when we called for a reservation what we were getting into. They mush have the reputation for the best Halloween party in Frankfort because this campground is full. There are even campers parked where there are no spaces. And there must be 200 little kids all dressed up for the party. The campers are dressed up, too, with spiders, witches, ghosts, and goblins. I’ve never seen anything like it. We may have to come here every year, now that we know.
Gene rushed out to make a few pictures at the costume contest.
This time tomorrow, we’ll be back in Nashville. Won’t my mama be excited?
