8 Nov. 2018 Belle Meade

We went to Radnor Lake Park to walk a bit. It’s a pretty little park with a trail that goes all the way around. The lake was built in 1905 to supply water to the railroad and was subsequently turned into a city park. We did not walk far but it was good to get out and stretch our legs. We had time to kill before heading for the restaurant Greg told us about. So naturally we went looking for a winery! We stumbled across the Belle Meade plantation (which just happened to have a winery). As we toured the plantation they were preparing luminaries along all the pathways for a Christmas celebration complete with Mr. and Mrs. Claus. The Plantation was responsible for breeding some of the Kentucky derby champions. It was also a major dairy for the local markets. After we enjoyed our tour (and some wine) we went to Midtown Café, and had a wonderful dinner.

Of course we found a winery!
