I saw several of my Yelp friends recommend a stop at the Museum and I was all in. I could hardly contain my excitement, seeing the iconic bucket marquee. Outside, in the perfectly manicured lot, stand petroleum artifacts from the Sanders early days as a gas station owner. A historical plaque describes the site. The Museum stands where Harland Sanders (the Colonel) once owned a small neighborhood restaurant, called Sanders. Here, his famous fried chicken took root. Inside, is a modern KFC counter. I be placed my order and was given a beeper. The Museum is filled with artifacts from 1940's to present including Sanders furniture, kitchen ware and an evolution of KFC logo packaging and trinkets. My favorite part of the exhibit was a video of Sanders describing how to prepare his chicken. I was truly inspired by his story as an entrepreneur. My lunch was fresher than any KFC that I had ever had. The chicken was crispy and flavorful. The coleslaw was so brightly colored that I knew it was made within the hour. And the potatoes took me back to my childhood. We spent about an hour total at the museum. There is no charge, except your meal. Restrooms are clean. The museum is fun and interesting. I highly recommend a stop, especially if you're a KFC fan.

Kentucky officially declared its neutrality at the beginning of the war, but after a failed attempt by Confederate General Leonidas Polk to take the state of Kentucky for the Confederacy, the legislature petitioned the Union Army for assistance. As a border state, it had several significant battles between the two armies. The marker is in front of a memorial "In memory of all Laurel countians who gave their lives and in honor of all who served in all our wars to preserve our freedom." Which could possibly include the Civil War if you wish. It is marker number 560, "500 CSA cavalry led by Colonel J.S. Scott attacked 200 USA troops and 98 convalescents under Colonel L.C. Houk here Aug. 17, 1862, killed 13, wounded 17, captured 111 men and 40 wagons. CSA lost 2 killed, 4 wounded. Houk forced back to Gen. George W. Morgan's main USA force at Cumberland Gap. Cut off from supplies, Morgan began his retreat to Ohio thirty days later." It was erected in 1962 by the Kentucky Historical Society and the Kentucky Department of Highways.

Well kept and a recommended visit if you are in the area- or if you aren't from the area. If you…read morelike walking trails then this place is for you. But be warned it's hilly, VERY hilly. Beautiful landscape, no urban sprawl. What you see is 1862.. trees are where trees were and open fields are where they were. I've been to many battlefields and I think this one is where the books don't do the terrain justice.. you really have to see it firsthand. The State and Trust have done a good job preserving the battlefield. If you look, you can see new land that was bought and about to be handed over. Recommend

Some of the markers were a bit beat down, but other than that, it's an interesting and beautiful area.
