WHERE? LaRue County, Kentucky · find us on the map
Last night's accomodations: Comfort Inn · Cave City, Kentucky
After an early breakfast-and-goodbyes with Jerry and Ella, we could hardly wait to see more of this remarkable state. Our next destination was only a one-hour drive away - the Abraham Lincoln Birthplace National Historic Site:
- Sinking Spring Farm, where the 16th president was born in 1809
- The old homestead: Lincoln's Boyhood Home at Knob Creek
- Exhibits in the Visitor Center, including the original Lincoln family Bible
- The Memorial Building, which features a reconstructed symbolic birth cabin
- And an extra treat - The Nancy Lincoln Inn, a nearby museum listed on the National Register of Historic Places
