Wednesday, May 19, Day 13
Breaks Interstate Park to Hindman, Kentucky (67 miles)


Not much to say about this day. Another day of hills…much hard climbing. We passed through showers as the day progressed. Saw tons of coal trucks as we traveled the roads we classified as really “tough.”
We left Virginia and are in Kentucky.
We stayed at a Bed and Breakfast in Hindman run by Dave…$25.00 for the night…4,000 feet elevation.

Hindman, Kentucky, was named in honor of James P. Hindman, Lieutenant Governor when the town was founded in 1884. Hindman is the birthplace of Carl D. Perkins, the Knott County Congressman known for working to better the lives of Appalachian residents.
