I also love Lexington. I love going to the horse farms, I love driving around the area, and I love going to the bars at night. I wish the food didn't suck and I wish the bars stayed open til 4am, but you can't have everything....unless you live in NYC.

I went to a Wedding this weekend in Paris, KY, I had to drive from Winchester to Paris on a back road, it was a beautiful Fall day and the drive was just amazing, drove right past Claiborne and some other farms, seeing some of the young horses out in the fields, it was really a great drive...

The rehearsal dinner was at a place called Dudley's, food wasn't bad there, probably the best I have had in Lexington, never been to NYC, so I can't compare it to that, but it wasn't bad, better than I expected for a rehearsal dinner...

Dudley's is OK....probably one of the best spots to eat in town.

I love going to Claiborne. I've been there four times. The first time I went I had a difficult time understanding the guide that was showing me around. He kept saying " Secretariat's buried HO ". I finally realized he meant " Whole ".
