I write like it's my job - because it is! I have a Master's in English and love words: crossword puzzles, Scrabble games, Wordle, and, of course, good, old-fashioned books.
I'm a writer and editor at OnlyInYourState, and a contributing writer at Cincinnati Magazine. I love the Great Outdoors and am endlessly awestruck by this beautiful country of ours. Coffee keeps me going, yoga keeps me sane, my kids keep me grounded, and my writing keeps me inspired.
The holidays have come and gone, and winter’s setting in on the Bluegrass State. This post-holiday season can feel like a total *mood* — and not in the merry and bright kind of way. But winter in Kentucky is nothing short of magical, even without the twinkling lights and holiday pizazz. The landscape of the Bluegrass is breathtakingly beautiful in the coldest months of the year, and there’s no better way to experience this quiet beauty than the old-fashioned way: aboard a train! My Old Kentucky Dinner Train offers a scenic winter train ride that’s absolutely delightful, and a wonderful way to embrace winter in the Bluegrass.
My Old Kentucky Dinner Train is pure nostalgia, offering scenic rides and dinner service aboard rustic, restored 1940s train cars.
Located in the heart of beautiful Bardstown, My Old Kentucky Dinner Train offers passengers the opportunity to immerse themselves in the beauty of the Bluegrass State's acclaimed bourbon country.
This experience highlights Kentucky's amazing culinary chops, serving passengers a four-course dinner prepared fresh onboard by a team of incredibly talented local chefs.
And of course, no Kentucky meal would be complete without bourbon, and the Kentucky Dinner Train boasts an extensive selection sure to please the bourbon imbibers in your party.
But while the on-board menu and ambiance of the Kentucky Dinner Train are wonderful, it's the views outside the train that really put this experience over the top.
As the train ventures through Kentucky's renowned bourbon country, the expansive, rolling blue hills -- painted white with fresh snow, if you're lucky! -- will completely take your breath away.
There's nothing lovelier than the Bluegrass during the winter; it's a quiet beauty that's simply perfect. And it's something you can experience this winter aboard My Old Kentucky Dinner Train.
Wow — what an amazing adventure in the Bluegrass! For more information on these scenic winter train rides, visit My Old Kentucky Dinner Train’s website.
While you’re in Bardstown, be sure to stop and explore; it’s one of the most delightful downtown districts in the state!
