Our local Honey Dew Donuts has put together some decorate your own donut kits. I have been doing Donut Fridays with Allison and the kids. I run over there to the drive through get a couple of coffees and some donuts and bagels. A fun way to start the day. The kids really enjoyed them.
We had a good day today. Lots of online things happening here. We started off with our morning welcome from the kids’ principal. Then I had a 40 minute chat with folks from my Krav Maga class led by our Sensei. Then I did my livestream and we also had a family Zoom session and we were joined by my grandmother, too. Earlier this week I sent her a webcam so that she could participate in the Zoom sessions. She was thrilled.
On our second day of vacation Tara brought up to Hi-Five Doughnuts for breakfast. This place was very cool. As with most places we visited not only did they have their storefront location but they also had a food truck. One of the things that Hi-Five Doughnuts does it they do make your own donuts. Well, they make the donut but you get to choose the glaze and toppings. They also had a variety of specialty fresh doughnuts that were already made. I selected a Homer donut, Allison one with bourbon and popcorn, Eva a Reese’s Peanut Butter one and Andrew did make your own with a bacon glaze and sprinkles. They were all very good.
We left Hi-Five and then went searching for the Idlewild Butterfly Farm. This was a very cool place. We took a tour and got to hold all sorts of insects and learn about them. We also were able to see the butterflies that were being raised. We all liked the Prickly Leaf Insect because it did some adorable things with its hands. You can see in the video below.
I thought that there would have been more butterflies but we may not have been there at the peak time. There were certainly a bunch of cocoons that were being hatched but not as many butterflies in the outside enclosure.
After the butterfly farm we went in search of the grave of Col. Harland Sanders. Eva had done a paper or research on things to do in Louisville, Kentucky. One of those things was to visit that particular grave. So we did. We also learned that many famous people were in that cemetery including the woman who created the Happy Birthday son and Muhammad Ali.
