I've had an exciting day!

I went to waverly with my friend Laura and Sweatone. It was so surreal, not the sanitorium, that is just a sad spooky building on a hill. No, I'm talking about Dixie Highway.  First of all, in Kentucky you cannot trust the mapquest.  Things are too wierd here. So my directions from my friend Yevla and my stepdad were "Go on dixie highway, its on your left, you will see it from dixie highway".  I overshot by 10 miles and ended up at the last liquour store before Henry County. It is a totally wierd liqour store painted pink and I went through the "drive through" in my SUV with my kid to show Laura that the drive throughs exist and in fact, nothing flusters the attendants. The whole drive through window is covered with chicken wire on the inside and it is behind a river levee.  I got some smokes and directions to Waverly. Here they were: "go back, when you get to the dairy queen the next right go right. You will see it from Dixie Highway." Then he said "Yall come back now hear". Seriously.  Then we went back up dixie highway, with strip clubs next to churches next to bait stores and next to taxidermists. Everything has animals on it. There is a place to buy concrete statutary.  Finally we got to the dairy queen, but were still lost. We found a sonic, but no one to ask without ordering from the sonic people. Then we found a dude who was vacuuming his minivan and it had a christian sticker on it next to a Number 8 Dale Earnhart sticker. He gave us perfect directions, but then we got lost again. finally, guided by the chick at citgo, we went through the golfcourse up a hill bearing left and found the sanitorium. We took pictures, but did not see any ghosts :)

Later.
