BCoF's Virtual 50 State Bucket List

Day 17 Kentucky

         I offered my apologies to my fellow travelers. For years, my hubby operated an autobody shop and I've seen my fair share of Corvettes. It may well be a case of seen one, seen all. During that time I rode as a passenger and I sat behind the steering wheel. Meh, not my favourite vehicle. I see them as the Barbie car. Now, my son-in-law absolutely drools over Corvettes and teases my daughter that he will one day own one. It's nice to have dreams.

         I enjoyed the underground boat tour. The concept intrigued me as I have only bobbed along in boats above the ground. Wow, just wow! Those caves are amazing. I marvel at how such enormous rock formations could have been formed. Imagine the forces needed to carve this area.

         Perhaps it was the atmosphere, eerie yet beautiful. Witchy Woman and WakeUpAndLive ducked several times. That instinct to protect the ol' noggin' is strong. Our heads were on a swivel and the peripheral vision warns danger, danger as it espies rock approaching.

         Sung'manitu marveled at the gorgeous blues, greens, dare I say teals/aquamarines of that water. I made a mental note to remember those shades the next time I shop for paint.

         Was it just me, or did time cease to exist as we floated along? That sudden re-entry into daylight triggered my squint. Probably not the best time for a photo op.

         Briefly, I felt discombobulated when I disembarked. The everyday ability to walk seemed elusive. Eventually, by limbs propelled me along in their usual tripping style and thus I hiked the serene trails.

         Colour me impressed Bowling Green, Kentucky.
