Summer Traveling to Arch Park – KY

The Natural Bridge in Slade, Kentucky – the Red River Gorge is a surprise to the many that never realized the number of natural bridges in eastern Kentucky.

It’s summer, which to me means late evenings spent outside. My husband and I drove to Kentucky in the fall to visit the Red River Gorge area. What we found in the forest was unexpected -many natural stone arches. They cut across the sky, and were conversely, hidden in brush. What we uncovered in that trip continues to feed our enthusiasm to travel into nature’s forests.

We stayed in a remote cabin that could only be accessed by foot.
