The reason I can not make it BTW is because my wife is with me and horses and bourbon are definitely not her thing.

Sadly, no Lexington IHG properties on the newly released PointsBreak list valid through October 31st.

Looks like I can get there late afternoon Friday. As a rookie and more interested in bourbon than horses, I'd be interested in the bourbon tour on Saturday - hope to have others for a Saturday tour??

Yes, it's common for us to split up into multiple smaller units.
