    Nice peaceful winery in Winchester! Lots of wines to choose from! I decided to try the red flight…read more($12) with a charcuterie board for 2 ($20). I sat inside to avoid the heat and bugs. There was a cat chilling in the shopping area.

    Girls day out! Decided to visit Harkness Edwards Vineyards after searching for Fall activities and…read moreit was a hit! We visited on a beautiful Saturday afternoon and enjoyed the scenery as we sat outside sipping our wine. Located just a short drive from Lexington, Harkness Edwards is checks all the boxes for a fun day out. Atmosphere, check. Views, check. Affordable, check. A variety of wines for every palette, check. We prefer our wine on the sweeter side so we went with the best sellers flight. For just $10 we received a flight of 5 different wines, These were generous pours and we presented beautifully. Once we got settled, we decided to add a charcuterie board for two. At just $20, that was a great price! It included grapes, multiple cheeses, crackers, meat and chocolates. I would've liked a bit more meat, but I understand that additional meat may have driven the price up. In addition to our flight, we also enjoyed a glass of seasonal apple cider sangria. It was light and refreshing, topped off with champagne for a bit of effervescence. Since it was such a nice day, we opted for outdoor seating to enjoy the weather and beautiful views. The atmosphere is very relaxed and casual. We brought personal activities to entertain ourselves, so we colored , journaled and did some reading during our time at the vineyard. Before leaving, we settled our tab and browsed in the retail area. They have many items for purchase including local honey, candles, soap, lotion and of course, wine. We purchased a bottle of our favorite wine from our flight. In addition to tours and tastings, they offer a variety of different classes. While we were there, there was a floral class going on. I would like to come back and take a class in the future. We had a wonderful outing at Harkness Edwards. The staff was very friendly, the wine and charcuterie were delicious and the atmosphere was delightful!

    Interesting site with lots of actors, most of which are friendly and all of which are…read moreknowledgeable. The orientation video is informative and sets up the experience nicely. Enjoyed the blacksmith demonstration, and the numerous artifacts and posters combine to form an intimate narrative of the place. The fort itself seems a little run down, and a few of the employees seemed standoffish and irritable on the day that we visited, especially the woman in the first cabin with a person. I didn't really understand why she seemed so agitated at another person near us asking a very simple question. Bizarre. We got the heck out there. The monument in front of the fort easily had a hundred bees buzzing around it, so beware if you have bee sting allergies.

    We stopped at the Fort when we saw a sign on our way to Corbin, KY. We hadn't heard of it before…read moreand we had some extra time so we figured we'd give it a shot. We were definitely pleased with the accuracy of the fort replica and the knowledge of the staff. We learned about how they made wood tools, how they spun linen into thread and how to use a loom. They had some more exhibits that were unmanned at the time like making soap and a traditional garden. They also had a gift shop but I wasn't all that impressed and thusly did not purchase anything. The grounds were very nice and very well maintained. The fort was peaceful and not crowded at all, the only downside was that the kids were horribly bored. I can't really blame the museum too much for this....it WAS near the end of a long hot day, but the place really isn't geared towards younger kids. So it's up to you if you think your kids would enjoy long in depth detailed and historically accurate descriptions of the tasks I listed earlier.....is so then you will be pleased. In our case the kids were not, but that didn't stop us from having a great time, 4 Doubledays for you....and nice work!
