A Racetrack, a Dog and Hot Chocolate




The trip from Lexington, KY to Nashville was 259 miles and took about 4 hours. I have found that 250 miles or so is very comfortable and it does not tire me making for a more enjoyable ride. After all, the ride is one of the major joys of this trip.

In Lexington, we had a chance to see the racetrack and eat breakfast (including grits) at the Track Diner. We also enjoyed the front porch of our friend Maureen’s home watching the neighborhood folks go about their business. Mary Todd Lincoln’s home was a delight and I learned that her favorite drink was hot chocolate every morning. That’s my girl.

During our stay in Lexington, we enjoyed Maureen’s dog Gemini. Judy took him for walks at the local park.
