July 4th - Corbin, KY

​Cathy met us at our campsite for a hike at Laurel Lake with our dogs. We found a really cool boat-in campsite with about 30 sites of which only about 10 were occupied. There was a big, sandy beach where the dogs enjoyed some swimming before the humans decided to seek respite in the coolness of the shady forest.

We returned to our campsite for a cool drink before meeting Todd for lunch at Cracker Barrell. We continued our visit at Todd and Cathy's home, where they graciously offered us access to their laundry room. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Todd and Cathy are interesting and gracious people and we were all eager to learn more about each other and our respective nuclear family's history.
