We left the RV park on foot and walked over the Mississippi to head up to the top of the Arch. Cool. The kids learned about the many people who left for the west from St. Louis, including Louis and Clark. Took the train back across the river to the RV park, and headed 
for Louisville KY. Another multi state day, with Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, and Kentucky today. We finally broke our string of fantastic RV meals, because the kids have been begging us for KFC (rare, but a favorite), so we had told them that when we were in Kentucky we would have Kentucky Fried Chicken, and they got it!

Followed by the Louisville Slugger Museum/Factory tour, and a visit to the Farmington House which Abraham Lincoln has visited.
Saturday, as we prepared to head out of Louisville, we made a stop to Locust Grove, a house belonging to the sister of William Clark (of Louis and Clark), which was rich in history. Before stopping for the night, we visited the birthplace of Lincoln. Amanda was happy as wandered towards our selected campground for the night to run through a small Amish community, complete with horses and buggies.
This capped off a long and hard week. We have now covered more than 4500 miles, with the average road day this been being about 250 plus miles, plus 2 stops. We found a state park near a lake south of Louisville and set up for 2 nights, with a rest day on Sunday. Church in the RV, enjoying the spring time weather.
We are trying to decide where to head next. Will it be back towards the Mississippi and Arkansas, or Georgia, or up to the east? Stay tuned. We will let you know when we do!
Hey there! sure glad you are all well! Jerre knows good friends in Louisville with Campus Crusade for Christ, Innercity, visited there years ago. Love the pictures! The kids uncle lives in Georgia, but Arkansas sounds good too! Just thought we'd put our vote in :)
ReplyDeleteBeen raining here all day, double rainbows, and lots of puddles to run through!
