NYT piece on the Bluegrass 



There's a good article in the New York Times about this area. It describes it thus:

Start your trip in Lexington, a leisurely university city with antebellum houses and hip new restaurants, which calls itself the horse capital of the world. Justifying the slogan are hundreds of horse farms out in the surrounding countryside, many carpeted in the local bluegrass - so called because it blooms a purplish blue.

Worth a read.
