Resuming our Kentucky travels in the middle of horse country, we stayed at Kinkaid Lake, then Yatesville State Parks. The 13th hole at Yatesville is great, a 250 foot vertical drop from the tee to the fairway….‘got lots of balls?’

The back roads of West Virginia put the GMC to the test up, down and around the mountains. New River Gorge is 897 feet deep with a spectacular bridge. Onto the North Bend State Park and another round of golf.

In Pennsylvania, we used Ohiopyle State Park as our base. We took a side trip in the Smart thru the country side and into Pittsburg. The luxury of a hotel room at the Westin, then a Pirates game in the wonderful Three River Stadium. This stop included visits to three Frank Lloyd Wright houses, Falling WaterKentuck Knob and the Duncan house…..great works. A little golf at the Summit and breakfast at the Summit Inn built in 1904.

Our last stop on this leg was Kooser State Park where we were the only ones in the campgrounds.
