We stopped at Abraham Lincoln Historic Park, the birthplace of Abe. They had a huge structure, something like the Lincoln Memorial in DC. In side of which was a reproduction of a log cabin as Abe would have known it. It was interesting in that the cabin was not built as log cabins were built in New England. These had been squared so were long rectangles and each had as much caulking between each log as the size of the log.
The perpetual spring which had drawn the early settlers here is still going strong and the lovely mossy edges were covered with ferns. I bet it was a cool haven on a hot summer's day.
We went on to My Kentucky Home campground in Bardstown, KY.
