Owensboro Travel Guide: 18 reviews and 14 photos

When first going online to research what to do in Kentucky and Indiana, I did not find much. Actually, going to this area I found I needed more time to do other stuff I wanted.I didn’t want to leave so soon. There were other things to visit in KY and IN such as the caverns, wineries and the Mounds Indian Exhibit. Owensboro hosts a yummy BBQ festival in mid-May, which I wish I could go back for. I just missed the battle of the bands which occurred the ending of April.
