Best Kentucky Travel Destinations
Has the pandemic ruined your travel plans? Quarantine has made people scared to leave the state. I can totally understand that fear and it has made traveling hard. One alternative, is taking the opportunity to travel close to home.
As Kentuckians, we sometimes take for granted the beauty that surrounds us. With this in mind, Melissa and I have traveled around Kentucky to check out some of the Best Kentucky Travel Destinations close to home!
