Thank you for “Tuning In” to the Red River Gorge Vacation Destination Hello and welcome to the Red River Gorge area and thank you for picking up our Gazette. The Gazette is your ultimate Family Fun Guide to Adventure, Gorgeous Scenery, Amazing Venues and Total Relaxation.
The newest attraction to hit the gorge is now open!! Kate has traveled all over the state finding the friendliest animals there are! Many of the animals have been bottle fed and hand raised in her home (no literally in her home). The love and care she has shown her furry family makes them sweet and cuddly for everyone to enjoy. Our petting zoo offers many different personalities for the whole family to enjoy. What should you expect when walking through the gates? Copper, the Scottish highland bull, Maisie the bottle fed mini panda and highland cross, Millie and Milo the bottle fed Nigerian dwarf twins, Ali and Etta the alpacas, Dolly the bottle fed Juliana mini pig, Daisy and Delilah the miniature donkeys, Salt and his family of rams, and Squirt and Jolene the mini ponies. The barn offers all the rabbits, ducks, chickens, and all the current bottle babies. There are many upcoming plans including playgrounds, duck ponds, and exotics. Follow them on facebook @kateskritters to stay informed on all the new happenings at Kate’s Kritters.
Brought to you by the folks who have conceived Family Venues Designed to Exceed your Expectations. Welcome to The Gorge Area!
The Fun Forecast for May calls for pleasant quiet evenings followed by extended periods of days filled with increasing wondrous discoveries. This will be followed by 100 % chance of serious excitement and widespread joy. Some category five levels of adrenaline pumping thrills are predicted as are unique opportunities for awe inspiring vistas. Adventurous conditions are expected to be tapering off to the serene evenings of total relaxation followed by scattered periods of fireflies and twinkling stars in clear mountain skies. Low, whispy mists will be gathered around the majestic mountains above the valleys and gorges in the early mornings. Those will be followed by sunny skies and warming trends each day. The rest of the week promises to bring west winds heavily laden with the scent of honeysuckle leading into a cloudburst of butterflies, humming birds, honey bees and myriad pollinators. Sunrise tomorrow will be announced by trees full of birds. Sunsets will occur accompanied by a chorus from croaking frogs, and chirping crickets. Our forecast could not be any more accurate unless we told you more because there certainly is more to the Gorge. Lots more! Find them at your own pace and believe us, you will be pleased. Get up early tomorrow so you have time to explore all the possibilities. After all, as one famous Southerner said, “Tomorrow is another day!”
