Good Time!

Last Saturday night we went and listened to music at Lost River Cave.
Lost River is a really cool cave opening where "back in the day,"
 and I mean a long time ago...as in the 1930's or so...people used to come to the cave/nightclub for natural air-conditioning, cocktails, music, and dancing.
So, we joined the ghosts of the spirits in the cave and listened to several bands.
Had a few cocktails and lots of smiling.
Most importantly, the event was to raise funding to build an outdoor classroom for natural sciences for children in our area and those who visit the cave.
Again, it was a "cool" good time.

So, yes...this was a fun night and I hope it becomes an annual event.

So, there you go...

Air and Light

It's almost September 1st. Have you noticed a crisp gentle breeze in the air? How about the light? It is changing and seems to be clearer to me. The nip in the air is on the brink of Autumn. I can see small changes in the leaves of the trees. The corn in the fields has yielded its last and is becoming tan, brown, and dried. The sure sign that the harvest season is here. Summer is my favorite time of the year. I must admit though, I am looking forward to Fall in Kentucky. There are more hardwoods here than there are pines. So, I know the Fall color will be spectacular.
But I am still keeping one foot in Summer and
I want to share my Butterfly Photos with you that I took in mid-August at the Butterfly House at the Lost River Cave.
It was a wonderful HOT day to be sure..but we enjoyed venturing out and getting to know what is around us in our new city.
Hope you enjoy the photos as much as I do.
(update: everyone said my post was in code, I hope you can see it now-not sure what was up with blogspot)
