Kentucky trip, day 12

April 27, 2007 day 11

Tunnel en route to Cumberland Falls
This morning we headed for a campground west of Stearns, Stearns is in south east Kentucky, in the Appalachia country.

On the way I spotted Cumberland Falls State Park. It's east and a little north of Stearns. Since we want to go to both Stearns and the Cumberland Gap this seemed a better choice. En route we came to a tunnel which was quite something. It was a single lane
through and you hoped no one was coming from the other direction. Fortunately the tunnel isn't very long, but I felt I could reach out the window and touch the edge of the tunnel.

After arriving at the Cumberland Falls State Park we settled in, had supper and drove over to the falls. They are quite spectacular. Tomorrow we'll go to Stearns.
