Land of Horses

June 19, 2015
Hello Friends!

We are deep in wedding planning/working/living life with Fitz and as usual, haven't stopped to update. This past weekend, we adventured to Lexington, KY for a job interview for Cody and used he opportunity to explore the blue grass state! We really had a BLAST together and got a good feel for the downtown Lexington area.



We explore UK's campus, as well as the countryside with its horses and cows.

Cody and I were craving some green scenery and this really satisfied our needs! We stopped along the road from the airport to see some cows and they were so startled, they all started pooping at the same time! It was so funny and a huge guilt trip. 

We had dinner downtown and found a really neat bar with hipster cocktails and cool bartenders who filled us in on the Lexington nightlife. We walked around a bit, but came back to that bar as it was our favorite. 

The next day, after a super humid (but gorgeous) run and breakfast at Doodles, we made a point to look downtown at neighborhoods and houses. We drove around for hours looking at where we would want to live if we were to move. There are some neat older houses and some really rundown areas too. 



That night, we went to a different part of town to a restaurant called the County Club, known for smoking their own meats. Cody and I split a pulled pork sandwich and caesar salad and it was AMAZING!  The atmosphere was awesome too, very updated industrial. Afterward, we walked over to a local brewery, West Sixth Brewing Company and had a drink and talked with more locals about what Lexington was like. 



All in all it was an amazing trip. Our last day was spent with Cody interviewing, and then we flew home, with a giant delay thanks to American. We really liked Lexington, and enjoyed the local scene, but it made us appreciate our lives in Tucson more than anything else. And of course we were so excited to come home to our fur baby. 


Until next time,
LB
