Lastly, where can we eat that features a nice sized parking lot?

Sorry for all the questions... you're the local though.

RP,

I will call and get the details confirmed and post the information in this thread tomorrow. I didn't mean to let it slide, I was just waiting to see how things were going to shake out.

I called Buffalo Trace this morning and confirmed that they do have tours on Saturday, Feb. 4th from 10 AM to 3 PM. They request that we try to give them a head count so that they will have adequate tour staff present to accomodate our group. We can meet in the parking lot or in the gallery area just outside the gift shop to socialize and wait for everyone to arrive. If we arrive at 11 AM, we can catch the 12 PM tour and then go to lunch afterwards. Please post any questions and I will attempt to answer them.

BIG BLUE and ROCKPICK, if they are going to meet at 11:00 at we better move our meeting time up at the rest area. Say 10:30a.m. ???? That will still give us a half hour to get there with a 1hr buffer if we run late. Just let me know doesnt matter to me.
Since RED LARIAT is coming in the night before, we could crash his hotel room and order room service for breakfast!!

kd4crs -- thanks for checking on that. I'm sorry... I didn't mean to seem like I was 'dumping' on you. I hope you didn't feel that way.

saleen -- I concur. 1030 at Simpsonville?

RP, always glad to help. The last tour at Woodford Reserve is 3PM on Saturdays and they charge $5 per person if anyone is interested in doing that one after lunch. It is located about 5 minutes out of Frankfort.
