Ranked as one of the best “Unique” festivals in the entire Country, the Kentucky Bourbon Festival gets kicking this week! I am heading to the “let’s talk Bourbon’ event on Friday morning, and then to the press party Friday afternoon. If you’ve been you know what a great weekend it is, if you haven’t been GO! Let’s keep our digits crossed for great weather!

Tailgating for UK –Louisville will be a highlight too! SPORTS TOURISM! Buy Kentucky Proud products for your tailgating fun! When u buy those things, you support Kentucky farms and tourism efforts!

Now, let’s take a look at what other fun tidbits we have in store:

Went to Keeneland’s yearling sales party yesterday! OMG! Way cool! Keeneland’s website is here….http://ww2.keeneland.com/default.aspx

Our newest addition to the ongoing Kentucky Bucket List is:

Churchill Downs for the Oaks! I would agree, prefer that day over the derby myself!
