It's a beautiful Saturday and 13 days 'til Christmas. Venture to downtown Paducah for a unique shopping experience or pick-up a delicious lunch from one of several restaurants available to hungry diners. And the caveat…A FREE CARRIAGE RIDE! A generous sponsor has made it possible for all wanting to experience a little nostalgia may do so with a horse and carriage ride. 

John's PASS Carriage Service will take a tour of downtown Paducah with music, a beautiful horse, white carriage, and a driver with a sweet puppy dressed in red velvet attire. Now until 2 pm, catch the carriage at the gazebo in front of Doe's Eat Place on Broadway. 

While taking pictures, Paducah City Commissioner Brenda McElroy arrived with her grandchildren in tow. All were very excited to take a ride on the horse drawn carriage. The horse's name is Patton, 'like General Patton' explained one of the associates with John's Pass. A wonderful day to shop downtown!
