Little Fox here. After hiking 36 miles my roommates told me my next adventure involved exploring the great state of Kentucky. I don't know much about the state except they are known for their fried chicken.
Speaking of Colonel Sanders apparently he didn't start out his career in the fried chicken business. During the 40s he had a restaurant and a motel in Corbin, KY.
According to this sign, this location is the birthplace of a legend. I will say that the colonel does fry up a good piece of chicken.
Here's an overview of the motel and the cafe.
Colonel Sanders is looking relaxed.
Wow, the prices have gone up in the last 40 years.
Fancy silverware and recipes cards highlight this showcase.
Colonel Sanders was a good cook and his food was known all over town. This is a sample of the kitchen where he worked and maybe even developed his famous chicken.
I decided to stay in Kentucky for a while and visit a distillery. Kentucky is known for it's bourbon and other distilled beverages. This is an urban distillery so they are able to produce lots of different beverages in town. First bottles are gin.
Something called Rye Mash
The distillery is located right next to a big liquor store. Location is everything.
Little fox, big bottle of alcohol.
A great trip to Kentucky. So much to do and so much to see this little fox is tired. No, I doubt my tiredness involves the large amount of fried chicken and alcohol I consumed today.
