Alice and I went down to the river after noon to walk through the Jeffersonville BBQ and Blues cookoff Festival. It's the second largest in Indiana now. I saw competitors there from Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, Tennessee and Georgia. Now that I've learned how to cook amazin' BBQ ;), I wasn't inclined to pay $7 for a pulled pork sandwich or $10 for ribs. That seems a bit overpriced to me...
From there we decided to ride out to Leavenworth and eat at the Overlook Restaurant, probably the best view on the Ohio River. We both had the Chicken Cordon Bleu, which was very tasty and worth the 45-minute drive, and before we left town we stopped at Stephenson's General Store, which was very clean and had a lot to choose from, or at least to browse through...
She wanted ice cream, so we stopped at Culver's before we got back home. I'm trying not to eat sweets this month but I had to give myself a day off, okay, another day off, so I could order a Snicker's Concrete Mix-In.
We got back in time to catch Louisville's first College World Series game in "Omaha!" this year. Looks like Vanderbilt may hand them their first playoff loss...
The girls are worried we're not gonna know what to do with ourselves when the nest gets empty. That's assuming it's considered empty when Kelly goes to college in a couple of months. I'm inclined to think we'll manage somehow...
