July 11, Friday: 7:30am must be a golf day! Every other morning we are not up until 8:30am. Larry didn't want to be late after all he had 100 ft. to walk to the golf course. He managed to get there - check-in- and get his tee time of 9:20am. He was shocked that he was teeing off by himself on a Friday morning. Golf was only $32.00 and that included a cart. Another reason Larry likes Kentucky. Larry said the course was gorgeous. It is set in the State Park on 550 acres of rolling hills and lots of trees. Very quiet with only one major road running by it. He was surprised how lush and green the course was. Especially since it did not have any sprinkler system.
I need to point out while Larry was golfing, I stayed home to do housecleaning chores like "a good little woman". Actually, it was 51/2 hours of alone time. Oh, yeah, after golf Larry came home, showered, and took a nap. Jo, showered after housecleaning and went to the laundrymat and did laundry with no air-conditioner. Larry offered to do laundry but it really was his day to kick back and relax.
We headed downtown for an early dinner at the Old Talbot Tavern. Remember I mentioned it yesterday. What atmosphere. We had a great dinner. I had a Kentucky dish called Kentucky Hot Brown. It is ham and turkey on toast covered in Morney sauce w/melted cheddar cheese. Larry had blackened catfish w/coleslaw and southern green beans. (I had a bite of his green beans ok maybe two bites). We started dinner with a Burgoo soup. This is pulled pork and pulled beef with vegetables. OHHHH very good. Oh, wait a minute, forgot about Larry started with a 5 shot sampling of bourbon. Needless to say even after walking around town after dinner Jo drove home. Larry really is enjoying Kentucky and Bardstown.
