5/19 Danville to Berea KY

It is funny how a day that was supposed to be an easy 36 miles ends up going 44 miles with 2,000 feet of climbing with a head wind.  Still, it was one of our easiest days as we meandered over the hills enjoying the beautiful landscape and arriving at the hotel at 3PM.

I am always amazed that almost everyone outside of the larger towns lives on a hill with a very large yard.  I know I am overstating this but it is like no where else I have seen.  Also, you can see a large estate home and landscape next to a run down shack that people live in or do not live in.

Then there are the slave walls that must be shown, but represent a terrible time in the country's history.

At about 4PM Glenda and Stan arrived to take us to dinner at the Boone Tavern Hotel on the Berea College campus where we had drinks and an amazing dinner complements of Glenda and Stan.
