Wandering in the woods is a lot more fun when it's not scorching hot. We got a break in the rain on Sunday so we sallied forth in search of trees.
Made our way down to Bernheim Forest in Clermont, Kentucky. You bourbon drinkers may have heard of Clermont, that's where Jim Beam comes from.
Bourbon is the reason Bernheim Forest exists. Isaac Bernheim was a distiller, started the I.W. Harper brand. Later on he bought up a bunch of land that'd been strip mined and started hisself a forest.
For a former strip mine it's really starting to grow on me.
Not sure why a forest needs a missile silo.
Maybe it was to protect the interstellar communication portal.
All the signs for this called it a prairie but we always just called'em hay fields.
For a forest there sure were a lot of lakes.
Reflected well on the place though.
Just watch out for the forest giants. Narcissus, he said his name was.
