Road Trip - July 2008

This Saturday Matt and I depart on another one of our road trips! Our plan is to leave Faribault and head to Kentucky, with a stop perhaps in Chicago to see the Pipers. In Kentucky, we will meet up with our good friend Nate, a corn-holing, disc-throwing, beer-drinking Michigander. We've got our eyes on a few bourbon distilleries, a few wineries, a famous bat museum (but rumor has it the bat making will be closed down during our stay), maybe a mammoth cave or two, and a stop at the Louisville Bats, the AAA team for the Cincinnati Reds.

From Kentucky, Matt and I will leave Nate behind to his quiet midwestern summer plans of beer and brats and head on to Atlanta for a taste of Classic Coca Cola and other liquid confections.

From there, our plan is to drive on to the perfect July destination.... Florida... where we will explore the Everglades, visit family, drive the Keys, indulge in Miami (Little Havana, Art Deco, and people watching), and maybe stop at Disney World. From Miami, we leave for the Bahamas for a few days to snorkel and sunbath and collect Matt some new currency.

Then we'll keep driving north to see our families in my beloved northeast. I'm sure each of these stops will provide excellent fodder for blogging, just as our trips have in the past.
