Read about an excursion to Frankfort, KY to see the Ziegler House, Daniel Boone's gravesite and tour Buffalo Trace Distillery

Built in 1910, the "Prairie Style" Ziegler house -- also known as the "Fireproof House for $5,000" -- is the only Frank Lloyd Wright structure in the state of Kentucky.  And although it is a Wright design, the plans for it were actually drawn up in Chicago while Wright himself was in Europe.  Construction of the home was architecturally unsupervised, yet the plans are relatively detailed. See photo gallery below.
