Monday, Columbus Day

---

No school here. You'd think after a week off for fall break these kids would be back, NO, teacher planning day. We were leaving this morning, when lil Pete said he had taken day of work. And we had to stay. So here we are, deiced to take kids somewhere...this is what we did. There is a soft drink only known in KY. Ale81. So Pete called the company, asked if we could have a tour, and so we went. See this website:

It is a delicious drink, made out of ginger. Small company, but we were impressed by the new equipment. It has been around since 1902.
Lil Pete always hungry, we went back out so Maribel could make Pico de Gallo (fresh salsa). She is also cooking a venison roast for dinner.
Thank you for the emails, but please leave your comments on here. To answer the question, Big Pete was with us at Jill's the other night, mainly he stayed in doors watching football. He did ride the 4 wheeler at some given point. I took no pictures that day. Most were taken by either Big Pete or Heather.
We plan to head towards Asheville tomorrow morning. Then Sycamore Lodge on Wednesday in NC. It is near Jackson Springs. Will be there for a few days until we head for New Bern, for the South Bound Cruisers Gam. As we will be on the road, we will update when we can, so come back often and don't forget to leave your comments on here.
