Pipestem State Park - Pipestem, WV

Drex keeping some workmen company.
This is the first day of our Fall Trip.  Our plan is to explore the culinary delights of Kentucky with a dash of fly fishing.   Kentucky is more than a day’s drive so we are stopping at an old haunt in West Virginia.  The last time we were here, we avoided the gourmet restaurant at the bottom of the gorge in favor of the completely packed Blue Mountain restaurant on the top of the ridge which was serving an all you can eat seafood buffet (so wrong on so many levels).  This time we opted for the gourmet restaurant only to find that it closed during the week.  We had dinner back at the Blue Mountain.  It was not crowded and we got a nice table with a lovely view of the sunset.  We ate West Virginia appropriate cuisine (trout and chicken), drank West Virginia craft beer and even brought a small sample back for Drex.

Tomorrow the Kentucky adventure begins in earnest.
