Bowling Green, Kentucky

We left our wonderful Cedar Creek CoE (Corp of Engineer) campsite and headed north on Interstate 65 passing into Kentucky. We pulled off exit 58 and turned right into a KOA. After about three hours, our son Dan, wife Erika, grandson Jace and granddaughter Ellie arrived from Chesapeake, Va to spend the week with us.

We are about 30 minutes away from Bowling Green, Kentucky so our first day we headed out to watch the Bowling Green Hot Rods (Tampa Bay) take on the Gary Indiana County Lake (Chicago Cubs). These guys are part of the Major League Minors but with a big league support. It was fun to watch these two teams battle back and forth. No matter where we go, baseball is alway a lot of fun to watch.

Next day we traveled back to Bowling Green to visit the National Corvette Museum. The Museum features over 80 Corvettes in periodic settings, including mint classics, one-of-a-kind prototypes and modern-day wonders of engineering and design.

This is a 1958. I used to own a 1959 of the same design and color except it had a removable fiberglass hardtop, not a rag top.

On February 12, 2014, a 65 foot by 45 foot sinkhole had opened inside the Skydome taking eight prized cars with it.

The sink hole fell into the extended Mammoth Cave system where its historical entrance is some 30 miles away.
Eight prized cars after being pulled out from the sink hole.
Before delivery to the customer, the car is stage at the museum for all to view.
Yes….this will do fine!

Say something, love to hear from you!
