Days 11 and 12: Kentucky Continues

I’m doubling up for this two-day post since there was a lot of mountain driving (low volume shooting) and crummy weather.

This Colonel Sanders statue is in Corbin inside the Sanders Cafe & Museum:

Abraham Lincoln at the Middle Creek National Battlefield in Prestonsburg:

Holcomb’s Custard Stand in Isom:

This closed movie theatre in Columbia is tucked into an alleyway off the main square:

This theatre is in Russell Springs:

The Lane Theatre in Williamsburg:

This former gas station is in Lawrenceburg:

A former Pure Oil gas station in Prestonsburg:

A former Tastee-Freez in Burkesville:

I believe this place in Harrodsburg has been closed and for sale for a while — but this sign remains:

This roller rink is in Corbin:

This sign in Somerset was such a beauty — StreetView 2019…:

… but by 2025 StreetView, the neon had been removed and it was cheaply covered up for the Makers Mill furniture/crafts/gift shop:

… and now it’s been adapted again for this bar inside Makers Mill:

This sign is in Corbin:

A “Happy Bear” sign in Corbin – more about these signs at my website here:

This sign is in Jamestown:

And this one is in Burkesville:

More Kentucky coming up soon!

Happy Trails,

  1. There was a Lighting Center sign identical to the one you found on the southwest corner of 38th and Lafayette Road in Indianapolis — until recently, when the business closed. “Indiana Lighting Center.” Inside the circle portion of the sign was a logo with a stylized K and the name Kichler.

    • Ah yes — it looks like a few others out there that are gone. There’s one still in Vegas but I think the biz moved so probably won’t be there much longer: 36.1441008,-115.1441682

      and another still there in Leesburg, FL: 28.8051426,-81.8876925
