Left Morgantown WV this morning and am in Lexington Ky tonight. Lots of steep winding roads at high speeds. Good practice for canyon roads later on. Surprise of the day: the abrupt change in topography between WV and KY. Impressive mountains with no color in WV then rolling grassy very green hills in KY. A change from no distance in view due to mountains to wide vistas of grassy cattle and horse farms. Notable sights: the Kentucky Horse Park, Henry Clay's home where he experimented with animal breeding to improve the species, and Mary Todd Lincoln's home. Now that is enough variety for one day. It took a half hour swim workout in the motel pool to clear my head.
It's 72 degrees here at 5:00 pm. Your missing the great weather.
ReplyDeleteNo snow on the ground? We're in a heat wave here - 70 degrees the past few days. You're going to miss all of mud season!
