Historic My Old Kentucky Home!

There are many historic places situated "in my backyard" besides those beautiful horse farms in Lexington. One of those historic places is My Old Kentucky Home State Park, once home to Stephen Foster. Amazingly enough it's a mere 25 miles from where I live. After driving to Bernheim Sunday it was only a ten minute ride on in to Bardstown, Kentucky. I hadn't been to Bardstown in 4 to 5 years so I decided to make a quick visit. Here's a few photos I took. I thought perhaps you'd like a peek.
Walking up to the front of the house.

An old out building sits in front of the house down towards the highway.

MY FAVORITE IMAGE! ISN'T SHE GRAND!

Hope you're having a good week. ENJOY!

  2. Wow, it must have been fun to poke around there with your camera. I love brick buildings, they always photograph so well.
