Road Trip Kentucky Catfish,Corvettes, Old Friends

Factory tours are great! One of my favorite TV shows is "How It's Made". What's better than visiting the actual assembly plant-making Corvettes. It's a "WOW" and makes you want to run out and buy a new Vette.

One summer I attended Western University in Bowling Green-spent many evenings at a "road house" drinking pitchers of beer and eating catfish and hush puppies. It was there that I met a wonderful friend-Kentucky Jim. He is the only person that makes my name (Bill) into a two syllable word-Be-ell. I never pass through Ky without visiting him. Guess what we ate? No, not catfish-crappie .

We're about home-2450 miles and I have an empty pack. If you read my blog, you know I am a big fan of "NR'S" (never return) clothes. You wear-em, toss-em and you ride, canoe, or walk home with an empty pack. I leave a "Trail of Tears" (torn, worn, clothes)!
