Folks, while in Kentucky one should try to make a trip to the "Kentucky Horse Park" near Lexington. Here they show the depth of love for horses that many Kentuckians share. We got to see all sorts of horses from Work horses to Thoroughbred racing horses. They also have a museum dedicated to horses throughout history. One very famous horse buried here is Man-O-War (1917-1947). He was born near Lexington and won 21 of the 20 races he ran. I was touched by the beauty and honor of his final resting place which overlooks the park. He's buried here with his son and Triple Crown winner "War Admiral" along with many of his other sons and daughters.
Here are a few of my shots as I quietly walked around his beautiful grave.
