Day Trip: view from atop the Rockhouse arch

A breathtaking view of the Cumberland River can be found by those who follow the paths upward over the Rockhouse Bottom natural arch. Spring break visitors Tom and Tillie were my guests for lunch at the newly opened Campbell's Creelsboro Country Store and afterward enjoyed a hike at nearby Rockhouse Bottom, photographing this amazing scene. As we traveled back to Columbia, reviewing favorite moments, Tillie pronounced that she would call Hailey and tell her, "I ate a peanut butter chocolate ice cream cone on top of a cliff today!" - LW Comments | Permalink

The Day Trip to Creelsboro, KY takes about half an hour from our public Square in Columbia. From Jamestown Street, take Highway 55 south, through Glensfork. In about two miles, turn right on Crocus Road, KY 1313. You'll pass one of Adair County's most beautiful, ever, homes on the right as you pass through the community of Crocus, KY. The next main intersection is Bryan, KY in Russell County - bear right on KY 1058 to Creelsboro. On this trip, driver Tom Waggener gave place reminders to his backseat crew, daughter Tillie and me. - LW Comments | Permalink

Among the old fashioned treats and crafts at the Creelsboro Country Store is down home cooking served by new owner Kathy Campbell. Food being served up the day we visited included a daily special plus generous sandwiches on homemade bread. And for dessert, we decided on big scoops of Chaney's hard ice cream (a Bowling Green company) in waffle cones. Comments | Permalink
