We slept in a little this morning and then headed out to go hiking at Kingdom Come State Park. We went on a pretty cool hike to the top of (That’s so) Raven Point up a flat rock mountainside. The view was gorgeous and there were lots of rocks around the area to explore. After a picnic lunch with our duck friends by a lake, we went to the Kentucky Coal Mining Museum. After a week of seeing what a big part of this culture coal mining is and talking to the locals about their connections to coal mining, it was really cool to go learn about the history and science behind coal mining. On our way back home, we also stopped by a Union-Confederate cemetery for a bit. For dinner, we took Bobby’s recommendation and went to the local Dairy Hut for delicious burgers and ice cream. All in all, it was a great free day spent exploring the area we’ve been calling home for the past week!
