Kentucky Derby 2018 Photos Last Day in Louisville

Our last day in Louisville 2018, was well spent. Kevin promised us lunch at the Maker's Mark Distillery (that didn't happen). Kelly woke up looking like the girl from The Ring, went into the bedroom and came out in 2 seconds wearing a green ball gown ready to go (although she was not exactly perky and cheerful as we rode through the winding hills of Kentucky... and lost our GPS signal and took a couple of wrong turns... "Turn left on Geoffrey Rd."... "In 5 miles".. For the LOVE OF GOD!).

The ride was rough for poor Kelly.
We had to pull over and let her out at one point.

The grounds at Maker's Mark Distillery are really very well done, pretty and relaxing. Very picturesque.

The distillery tour takes you through the entire process. You see the distilling process, the label printing shop, the storage and rotating of the barrels, the dipping of the bottles, the packing of the bottles, new brands and tasting.

This shot of Kelly is from before the tour started.

But she perked up really well once the tour got underway.

And then we rushed back to the airport to fly home. Farewell, Louisville. We hope to see you at #145!
