Heaven, with Horses

We spent the weekend in Lexington, Kentucky, in the heart of Bluegrass Country. What an amazing trip! I came here with my parents when I was a little girl and I wanted to see if it was as beautiful as I remembered. You be the judge:





We visited the Kentucky Horse Park, and the Bluegrass Railroad Museum. We also stocked up at Whole Foods and did a lot of swimming. I would like to get out into the country a little bit more on the next trip and see Ward Hall and some of the bourbon distilleries.

Lexington is one of the few places in this country where wealth equals taste (and I lived on Long Island, so I know of what I speak). It has that romance of the south, and for a wealthy community, is surprisingly affordable to visit.
