Paint Lick

Our most recent adventure introduced us to Paint Lick in Garrard County.  We strolled along Paint Lick Creek and Main Street taking in the pretty scenery and the pleasing mix of old and new throughout the town. A highlight of our visit was meeting Welsh furniture maker and blacksmith Don Weber, his wife, and their dog, Boy-O.

Woodford Reserve

Woodford Reserve Distillery
Woodford County



Inside the welcome center



Old stencil used for printing on barrel tops

Inside the welcome center is a small restaurant that serves sandwiches, soups, drinks, and desserts.  The
chili and cornbread made for a warm, delicious lunch on a cold winter day.



Behind the welcome center is the distillery, various offices, and storage barns.

Barrels of bourbon travel from distillery to storage on a track system.








The Grassy Springs Branch of Glenn's Creek runs through Woodford Reserve property.

Glimpses of Greensburg: Part 2

Looking from the old Greensburg Courthouse toward the new courthouse
Greensburg, Green County

The site of the shop of Simon Settles, maker of Kentucky Long Rifles

Downtown Greensburg

Site of the new Green County History Museum, scheduled to open in 2017
This building is also home to Kentucky Market House & Longhunters Coffee & Tea Company.

Inside Longhunters--a beautiful space and a great place for lunch.

For a fun local experience, visit Kentucky Head Hunters and order a Slaw Burger and a bottle of Ski.

We enjoyed browsing through the antique store in the Woodson Lewis Building.

I loved the look of this lamp against the lace curtain in the antique store.

Sweet handmade sachets

Gorgeous ceiling in the antique store
