Venue # 2
Step Back in Time

If you are intrested in the antiques of early Kentucky, Tennesee, and Virginia; then gather at the home of Joe Carr for wine and cheese in the garden. Also, you will be given a private tour of his collection of furniture, paintings, and silver. Practically everything in the house is from the "Upland South" and dates before the War (you know the Civil one).

The house itself is a remarkable survivor. The wall papers, drapes, and door hardware make it seem as if you are stepping back inot the 1840's.
