We went on a one night getaway with Darrin's parents to Kentucky last week. We dropped Granny & Pa at the AirBNB and went to the Louisville Slugger Museum & factory tour on the first day.
It was really interesting and there was a lot to learn for baseball lovers.
Carson was not happy when we said no to a customized wood bat.
Then he was all smiles when a little boy that had just come out of a tour gave him a mini bat because they had an extra.
The factory keeps track of the current standings with mini baseball bats.
The boys got to hold bats used by MLB players.
Miles chose Acuna's bat. You weren't allowed to swing the bats and I'm pretty sure it took everything in Miles not to swing out of habit.
The second day we drove to the Ark Encounter in Williamstown, Kentucky. The size of the Ark was something to see.
There was a lot to learn and read. We each were intrigued by different things along the way. I can't believe that there were almost 7,000 animals on the Ark.
We did a virtual reality ride that was a big hit with everyone.
At the end of the day, Carson got to ride a camel. He had to wait in line almost 45 minutes and never complained. He's come a long way!
He loved it and smiled the whole time. As soon as he got off, he practically ran to me and told me that he had to wash his hands because the camel smelled like "camel poop". I caught a whiff and he did indeed smell like camel poop.
We had a great time with Granny & Pa. We played cards, laughed, and ate snacks on our quick getaway. I'll leave you with this little gem.
