Is there any dress code or expectation for the nice dinner places? Also, I assume that nothing requires Kentucky Derby type clothing.

Not really. They are both pretty nice and I'd say many people dress up some (like coat and tie for men), especially for the place Friday night. Not necessary, though.

I am heading to ORD in a couple hours. See you in LEX. PM sent with a few details including my phone.
I will have a car the whole time and should be able to provide rides, though I am not staying at the 4 Pts.
I am going to the Icelandic farm Saturday morning, then back to LEX to shop for Saturday eve. Can give a lift. Also thinking about a bourbon tour Friday. Maybe Makers Mark? Been a long time since I was there.
Have not heard back from Stella's. Maybe my contact is no longer there. Will stop by there tomorrow to confirm Sunday brunch.

About 50 miles, should be less than an hour. 65-70 mph interstate almost the whole way.
I am showing up around 10. HPN-HRL likely 11:30 or so I think.

North Lime Donuts (575 North Limestone) at 9 and then Makers Mark distillery (with Dale Chihuly exhibit). I may not be able to go to Makers. Might be able to go to one of the closer ones.
rxgeek and wife and I think cocobird are at 4 Points.

I have a $1 off per gallon at Kroger I am going to get this weekend. If one of you guys needs a fillup, join me and you can share. Kroger not far from 4 Pts.
