Some Cracker Barrels this is what you see as you pull into the Parking Lot...the back of the store. This store is very well kept, although I can tell it is not one of the newer Cracker Barrels. I did a search and found out it is Cracker Barrel #8, opened in 1971, in Corbin KY. Today we must have seen a dozen Cracker Barrels along our route. Lebanon TN, the headquarters for Cracker Barrel, is around 100 to 150 miles from any spot we were driving along I-75 today. This corridor is one of the first areas they focused on as they started opening new stores after the first one opened in 1969.
We faced a good amount of traffic today, but the traffic was much heavier headed south. We had just a couple of minor construction areas, and for the most part the drivers all acted reasonable today.
As spring nears, some of the Redbud or Dogwood trees are starting to bloom. Don't know which one it is, don't care to know...I just know they look nice. Another couple of weeks and this area is going to look very pretty.
Tomorrow...off to another Cracker Barrel, this one will be close to Cincinnati, where my youngest lives with his family.

ReplyDeleteThank you...did not know that.
DeleteI love Cracker Barrel! Haven't stayed there, but I do love their food!!
ReplyDeleteFive out of Seven nights of Cracker Barrel, and I have had the same dish each night! I will try and put that in Tuesday nights blog.
DeleteGreat places to stay. Generally quiet and people leave you alone.
ReplyDeleteHave had quiet nights all five stays so far. Not sure about Tuesday night (tonight), close to a hospital and there are lots of sirens so far...
