Hello All:
I am currently working on having photobucket.com (on another screen, of course) upload the photos from the vacation to Carter Caves State Resort Park, located near Olive Hill, Kentucky that I just took with my husband, Tony. Tony and I were at the state park from September 10-13, 2010. (Of course, September 13, 2010 is today.) Tony and I had a really good time at the park. Below is some basic information for all of you before I post the photos in an upcoming blog, (that
might also include a video as well, once everything is said and done here!!)
For starters, as I mentioned above, the Kentucky state park's name is Carter Caves State Resort Park and it is located just outside of Olive Hill, Kentucky. The park isn't that big in size down there and in fact, it has a couple of parts that are near to each other -- yeah, this sounds weird, but I am not making this part up here -- there's a part of the cave system that is a little ways away from the actual "Main part" of the park itself that is a slight drive to and from the main part of the park itself.
The drive from where Tony and I live in Cold Spring, (Ky) to where the main part of the state park is located is one heck of a ride, folks. The drive down to the park (especially the way that Tony and I went) took us about oh, I'd say right around 2 hours and 45 minutes or so, and we were not on the interstate for a good portion of that ride. Yes, you read that correctly -- we weren't on the interstate for a good portion of our ride down to the state park. In fact, Tony and I didn't actually get on to an interstate until we were almost there, because of the directions that AAA gave us to get there. Of course, we didn't go the same way back, because Tony and I didn't want to be stuck going slower than molasses on our way home this afternoon, even though we had to go way out of our way to go on the interstate roads that we were on today to come home.
Any way, please keep an eye out for those photos and some possible videos about the state park, because we really had a good time over the weekend!! :)
