Trip to IN

Here we are in Clarksville, IN, at the KOA. Making a quick trip to visit with Mike's mother which we spent with her today.

Had lunch at a very famous restaruant "The Overlook" in Leavenworth, IN. Such perfect timing as we set in the restaurant high on a bluff overlooking the Ohio River. Christmas decor was lovely and the player piano was filling the rooms with Christmas music. Cardinals were numerous feeding on the open feeders. Snow flurries made the setting perfect. Not only was the home-cooked food delicious along with the homemade pies, but the view was breathtaking. Sitting by the window we saw barges making their was down the Ohio River at another well known spot called "Horseshoe Bend" of the Ohio. The river actually makes a horseshoe bend that you can see from where we set. So here we are sitting atop the bluff in IN looking over into KY and then beyond there back into IN.

It was a very relaxing time spent with his mother, sister, Ellen and her husband, Stu.

Last night, we arrived at the KOA and then drove to one of our favorite restaruants, Kingfish. It sits on the Ohio River (IN side) between 2 main bridges that take one into Louisville, KY. Excellent food and the night view of Lousiville is awesome!

We are leaving tomorrow, Saturday. Got to make it back so we can get to our friend, Joan Shoup's book signing in Hendersonville, TN.

Until then......
