On to Paducah, KY

We had such a nice relaxing time in Cave City. The campground was so nice, but yesterday it was time to move on to Paducah. We have been here and through here many times, although not in a while. The big Spring AQS show is here in April and it's impossible to get a place to stay at that time of year due to the thousands that come each year to attend the show. This year the show that used to be in Chattanooga moved to Paducah in Sept and it was just held here last week. We purposely planned to miss it due to the traffic and numbers of visitors in town. We did hear that the show was not as big as the Spring show with fewer vendors and attendees. I'm sure AQS is disappointed.

What we did want to go to in Paducah is the National Quilt Museum and Hancocks of Paducah. The Quilt Museum holds many of the Best of Show Quilt winners from previous years. When a $10,000 or $20,000 prize is given for a quilt, the winner gets the money and the museum gets the quit. The exhibits change regularly so there is also something new to see. Hancocks of Paducah is a huge fabric store and it's always fun to walk through and see what they have. I don't need anything,but it's always fun to look.

The campground we are staying at is mediocre at best. The gentleman checking us in could not have been nicer. The campground seems older, not well laid out or well kept and we are rather cramped next to some trailers. The WiFi, electricity and water  works so I guess we are good.


On a sadder note I got a text from Ryan yesterday. They still do not have power at their house which means no A/C in Florida, UGHHH. So they went to Pam and Randy's to get a decent night's sleep since they have A/C. Trevor fell out of bed, hit a table and broke his collarbone. Poor boy, but he is still smiling.
I love that face.

Leaving the hospital with his new dinosaur sling.
