Tuesday began with a tour of the Corvette assembly plant (no cameras allowed).  After lunch, we toured the Lost River Cave. 

Lost River Cave is a return to bygone highway attractions before interstate highways.  Because of its cool "natural air-conditioning", it was a popular night club in the 1930's.

Heads ducked, we explored the Lost River Cave.
