Road Less Traveled

One thing that Chuck and I have always enjoyed doing is taking the back roads and exploring an area versus the interstate. Today, we decided to go to Bernheim Forest outside of Bardstown, KY. We decided to take the back way. We drove out highway 62 then up 48 then across on 509. Finally, we took the last couple miles on 245 which took us to the main entrance of the arboretum. It was a pretty drive and the weather was sunny. The trip took us through Versailles and Lawrenceburg. After that, most of the trip was countryside. Farms, rolling hills and streams. It was relaxing and enjoyable.

We seem to spend so much time rushing to get to the next place sometimes, it seems that we forget about getting off the fast pace, slowing down and just relaxing. Today's drive reminded me of that. Tomorrow it is back to the real world but at least today I got to enjoy some quiet, peaceful time with my husband and see some new territory.
