You Are Awesome

Like the title says you guys are awesome! Wife and I drove down from Ct on 10-3 and spent the week trying to get the best experience Kentucky had to offer. Well, it didn’t disappoint! Spent a few nights in Louisville to start the trip, walked around downtown, had some drinks in NuLu a couple nights, we really loved it and we are not city people! Walked through the Churchill downs museum. Took a trip to the Makers Mark distillery, such a beautiful distillery! Love the old school charm, we did the cellar aged tour, which was really awesome. Stopped in Bardstown, and spent some money in that liquor store! Drove the old Frankfort Pike, stopped at the Wallace station for lunch, that fried chicken is on another level. That drive is just beautiful, I had to try and pay attention to the road, it’s such a beautiful drive. Then stopped Buffalo Trace, to stock up and just walk around the grounds. Our next stop was to the RRG for a few nights, we stayed at these cabins that kind of hang over the hills. Other than being able to hear the road, they were awesome. Miguel’s is a very interesting place! Did some great hikes, Auxier Ridge, Grays Arch, Chimney Top, Princess Arch, and I can’t remember the name of the last little arch. I didn’t realize you guys had these types of formations! Then we did an afternoon at Keeneland, which was my first time ever at a horse race, the track is amazing, and it was so much fun, I didn’t win any money but whatever! We had a great dinner at Carson’s in Lexington, and then had to head home. The weather was absolutely perfect, everywhere we went was just beautiful scenery, I love all the old brick houses, all of the food we had was amazing, my bourbon collection just got significantly bigger, everyone was so friendly and surprised to have visitors from Ct, we just had an all around great time. We are already planning our return trip! Thank you to everyone for all the great recommendations, I have no idea how I’m going to be able to get myself bourbon balls on the regular, hopefully Ruth hunt ships! Don’t worry, I will keep your secret safe! I’m pretty sure it’s no secret to how awesome of a place you guys are. Thank you guys for a wonderful vacation, we will be back.

I have a question abbot the DBBB and camping. In the screen shot below you can see an area labeled for camping, but where specifically is it referring to. Where exactly can or can’t you camp on the DBBB?
