Who doesn't love a good distillery tour in the rain?

While the Nashville portion of our summer travels was mostly about spending some quality time with Grandpa and KK, we still managed to squeeze in some sightseeing.  Our first adventure was to the George Dickel Distillery.  Let me tell you it was in the middle of no where, but after a few wrong turns we made it to the distillery that also happens to be a functioning post office.  Who knew?
 
Grandpa and Matthew enjoying waiting out the rain.  Apparently they don't like to take people on tours with giant golf size umbrellas when there is lightning.
 Of course they don't let you take pictures in their top secret areas, but the parking lot was nice.
 Matthew spent the entire tour trying to help out the tour guide as well as chat it up with all of the other folks on the tour.  He's such a know-it-all.  But the other tourists and the guide seemed to think he was entertaining.  I guess that's the difference between a disruptive happy baby and a disruptive screaming baby.  I personally found both types annoying when I was sans child, but I'll take what I can get and he was having a blast.

Here is Matthew making a drop off of moonshine.
Afterwards we needed to stop at Matty's new favorite restaurant.  Well, he likes the atmosphere of McDonald's as a backdrop to his formula and baby food purees.  He hasn't actually consumed any of the imitation food that they serve.  Mommy, however, has probably consumed her weight in their iced coffee!
