Seeing the Birthplace of KFC

Yes, we stopped by the Sanders Cafe in Corbin, Kentucky, to see where the Colonel started it all. After a variety of jobs during the Depression, Harlan Sanders decided to add a little chicken to the offerings at his gas station. Soon, his station was a regular stop along the highway. He expanded his business to include lodging and had quite a little business going. Then the bypass is built and he sells the Sanders Cafe and Court. Undaunted, the Colonel hits the road and finally gets his chicken on tables across the country. It's quite a story, mostly after retirement. The KFC website has a nice timeline of the events.
