11.18.13 Lost River Cave, Bowling Green, KY

The last of our field trips in Kentucky was to the Lost River Cave in Bowling Green.  After the excessive walking of the last three tours we chose an underground river boat tour which was a very different and welcome cave experience. There are four blue holes outside around the cave which use to be… Continue reading 11.18.13 Lost River Cave, Bowling Green, KY

11.12.13 Mammoth Cave here we come!

Mammoth Cave is the world's longest known cave system with over 400 of cave already explored. We made our way to Mammoth Cave and we set out on a day of cavern climbing up and down and up and down all 500 steps of the place. It was so physically demanding that I thought I’d collapse a couple of… Continue reading 11.12.13 Mammoth Cave here we come!

11.11.13 Louisville Slugger Museum and Jim Beam Distillery!

Roy started feeling better so we went to the Louisville Slugger Museum and Factory.  They manufacture baseball bats and many of the major league baseball players have their bats made there.  The factory/museum is in downtown Louisville, Kentucky which is about an hour from our RV park. They do not allow cameras in the factory, which… Continue reading 11.11.13 Louisville Slugger Museum and Jim Beam Distillery!

11.10.13 Out with the old bed and in with the new!

We are currently at Diamond Caverns Resort in Park City, Kentucky.  We really like it a lot.  It’s very quiet and only half of the RV sites are filled so we’ve spread out a bit over two spaces. When we got here on Tuesday (before we knew Roy had shingles) he went into Bowling Green (about 30 minutes… Continue reading 11.10.13 Out with the old bed and in with the new!

11.05.13 Roy has Shingles & Look out Kentucky – the Chauvins have arrived!

Roy has shingles and he's miserable.  The shingles shot Roy got last Wednesday either gave him shingles or it's a coincidence that he got shingles the day after he had the vaccine.  He started running fever and had a bad headache yesterday and today and has been having pain in his back and legs since… Continue reading 11.05.13 Roy has Shingles & Look out Kentucky – the Chauvins have arrived!

11.01.13 Madisyn, Berne Indiana, Super duper Pizza and Shingles/Flu Shots!

When we were living in our driveway in Hammond we often included pictures of our granddaughter Madisyn. She's grown so much since we left and here are a couple of recent pictures of her.  One is her Halloween costume and the other is her Thanksgiving outfit that we ordered for her. She and her mom are… Continue reading 11.01.13 Madisyn, Berne Indiana, Super duper Pizza and Shingles/Flu Shots!

10.30.13 God sat us in the right place!

When we chose where we sat for the parade on Monday night we didn’t know that God sat us in the right place, right next to the Aschliman family.  Roy and Nichole (the mom of the Aschliman family) talked a good bit during the parade and we enjoyed seeing their children have a great time at the parade.  Roy gave… Continue reading 10.30.13 God sat us in the right place!

10.29.13 Church, Party and Parade!!!

We’ve seen The Bridge Community Church while driving around Decatur, Indiana and decided to attend their Worship Service on Sunday morning.  It was definitely a blessing for both Roy and I.  Dave Fox is the pastor at their North Campus and his sermon was on Jesus, Son of God.  Roy and I left wishing we… Continue reading 10.29.13 Church, Party and Parade!!!
