Lexington, Kentucky

Lexington, Kentucky & the surrounding communities is the self proclaimed Horse Capitol of the World, and I believe it. Unbelievably beautiful pastures meticulously maintained and divided by mile upon mile of fencing.

We left Poplar Bluff, Missouri this morning about half an hour later than we had planned.

I’m not going to mention any names but someone left her purse at the restaurant last night. I’ll leave you guessing as to whom I’m talking about…..

No big deal, it did give me a chance to install the new sensors for our TPMS (Tire Pressure Management System) which monitor the tire pressure and temperature of the RV’s tires. Cool little devices attach to the end of your valve stem and send their data wirelessly to a small receiver I mounted on the dash.

Lets me know the minute we have any trouble with the tires. Hopefully these new sensors work better than the last ones, which gave false trouble signals so frequently I had to turn the system off. We’ll see.

We are staying a 1200 acre Horse Farm operated by the state that includes an RV park. Nice huh? Only $24/night for water and electricity; no septic connection at the site. Have to hit the septic dump on the way out.

Not sure if we are leaving tomorrow or on Saturday. Both Mary Lynn and I are tired from a couple of long days of driving. No hurry to get to Maryland before Monday so we might stay here in Lexington for another day. We’ll decide tomorrow am.

I would like to stay and get some horse pictures; couldn’t get close to any tonight but there is always tomorrow.

Nice pictures of the park. We have stayed there several times and visited the horse park displays and exhibitions.
