Are You Ready for the 16th Annual Homeplace Pickin’ Party?!

May 29, 2014 by Joi Sigers Leave a Comment

The Homeplace (Land Between the Lakes)
This event has expired, but you can find a list of up to the minute Kentucky Events as well as an entire page about Things to Do in Kentucky!

I LOVE this time of year! Baseball, chocolate sundaes, grilling out, trees in bloom, hummingbirds, more chocolate sundaes… and Kentucky events. Lots and lots of Kentucky events.

I could, literally, write 6 hours a day – 7 days a week – about all of the outrageously cool Kentucky events coming up.

And that’s just the month of June!

Here’s one that I get a special kick out of sharing with you. As you know, I’m wild about everything related to the Land Between the Lakes, so I jump at any opportunity to head in their direction.  The Homeplace is one of my favorite places in the world, so this event announcement is especially exciting.

It’s that time of year again – time for the Annual Homeplace Pickin’ Party! This will be the 16th Annual Pickin’ Party and it just won’t be the same without you. Below are the details – commit them to memory. There may or may not be a test.

Enjoy good old-time country music as it fills the Homeplace farm in the beautiful Land Between the Lakes. After a fun day in the sun, be sure to go to The Willow Pond Catfish Restaurant in Aurora for some of the best catfish, white beans, coleslaw, potatoes, and hush puppies you ever ate.

Kentucky State Parks

We have a special passion for Kentucky State Parks, so you'll find many articles and reviews centered around the beautiful state parks in Kentucky.

A personal goal is to visit, photograph, and enjoy each and every one of our state parks and eat at each of the state resort parks. Make no mistake about it, we're well on our way!

Bird Watching in Kentucky!

One of our greatest passions is birds and bird watching is an absolute favorite pastime. If you love our feathered friends and want to learn more about bird watching and attracting birds to your own backyard, be sure to check out our section dedicated entirely to Kentucky birds.
