Cookeville & Golden Corral Trip
Linda and I decided the mowing was done and the mums were tilled, so we would take Stacey and go to Cookeville. Linda wanted to eat at a restaurant called 'Golden Corral'. We had ate at one in Somerset, so I looked at the DeLorme Street Atlas on the Dell laptop and found it, I made it the first destination on our trip. We loaded in the HHR, fired up the GPS and off we went. Between Byrdstown and Cookeville we drove through some downpours, but when we drove into Cookville it was clear, sunny and hot. We ate at the Golden Corral as planned, then went to several other stores where Linda wanted to shop. I had plotted those on the Street Atlas and it worked great each time, taking us right to the exact location without missing a turn. There was only one problem, Linda wanted to return to a store we had visited on a previous trip, but she couldn't remember the name or where it was located, so we were unable to find it. After making our last stop, we headed back to Burkesville and drove through a few showers on the way. Back at the house, we had received no rain at all and it was hazy, hot and humid, just like most August days in KY.
