On Monday we made it into Kentucky. Our first stop was in Berea to visit Gin.  I’ve been waiting to meet Gin in person for the longest time! Since I am not on my computer, I can’t look up the url to Gin’s website but I think I have it in my sidebar here. Y’all need to take a look at it because her stuff is amazing. Her house is like an art gallery – filled with both her works and the works of her artisan friends. Baskets woven into pieces of art, paper sculptures… and I am so mad at myself for forgetting to bring the cable for my camera because there should be photos here. I’ll just have to post them after I get home. 

After way too short a visit, we hopped into the car to head to Western Kentucky to spend a few days with our friends who are also our new business partners. I love being out here. Not only is it just great getting to spent time with Lou & Bill but it’s just so pretty out here. 

I am kinda disappointed in the weather, though. We can’t go out to Lou’s parents’ house to shoot today because it’s raining. It had better not rain tomorrow. We have plans to go out on their boat. 

The rain did not ruin yesterday, though. We did get to eat at the best BBQ place on earth: Moonlite in Owensboro. I tried mutton. It was way better than I thought it would be. I’m not quite sure why I thought it wouldn’t be good. Maybe it’s just something about the word ‘mutton’ but it was real good.
