dALE HoLLow LAkE VISIToR’S guIdEwelcome! It’s hard to believe this is our 6th year to publish our annual Dale Hollow Lake pu-

blication – the Dale Hollow Lake Visitor’s Guide 2009! Every year as I sit down to write this — a smile comes across my face. The memories of all the new businesses, people, and events that we have had the opportunity to experience and all the fun we have had while exploring our area races through my mind. It is an absolute joy and privilege to be able to compile this visitor guide for you as you in turn look for ways to more thoroughly enjoy the Dale Hollow Lake region. I especially enjoy sharing this information with our visitors, and the families that are looking at possibly relocating, investing, or retiring to this awesome, scenic destination. There are far too many treasures awaiting discovery at Dale Hollow Lake without a little help in finding them.

Dale Hollow Lake has had a challenging year with the unexpected downturn in the economy; however, millions of visitors made it their destination of choice for 2008. Who can pass up the 27,000 acres of pristine shoreline, awesome trophy fishing, swimming, hiking, golfing, or just nestling in at one of hundreds of cabins available for rent throughout the year. Most people think about Dale Hollow Lake as a destination for their summer vacation or weekend getaway. Even more are discovering that a weekend in the winter, spring or fall can be just as satisfying. During the winter, the fishing is at its best. Hiking, biking, horseback riding and other such activities are extra special. You can see the lay of the land clearly and know what lies beneath the green jungle that surrounds the lake during the summer months. In the spring, when the trees are budding and the abundant flora bursts with vitality in the warm sunshine and spring rains, life is at a wonderful peak. In the autumn, the vibrant reds, yellows, purples and golds explode across the rolling hills of the countryside. Festivals and events dot the region. The region is also an excellent place to look for a bargain. Many shops of all kinds make the region their headquarters. Plus, be sure to check out the Hwy. 127 Sale (www.127sale.com) in August or the Rollercoaster Yard Sale (www.RollerCoasterFair.com) in October if you love to yard sale.

Looking for a place to retire or relocate? Want a better quality of life, less stress and a simple lifestyle that will add quality to your years? Come to Dale Hollow Lake and take a look around. This is the best time to invest in real estate, property, or that larger tract of land or the farm of your dreams. That perfect vacation or retirement home is waiting for you. Check out our local realtors who specialize in Dale Hollow Lake properties and maybe put your home on their rental program if you won’t live here year round. Most rental programs have very high rental occupancy, which helps to defray the cost of your mortgage. Check out the locally owned and operated rental programs operated by West View Lake Properties, The Rental Station at Dale Hollow, Elder Real Estate or Davis & Associates. You can find their contact information in the business directory listings at the back of this guide.

Staycation is a relatively new buzzword in the travel industry. We at Dale Hollow Lake have also seen many more folks from Tennessee and Kentucky sticking closer to home and enjoying the many day trip options, weekend, or week long getaway destinations found around our re-gion. Camping at Dale Hollow Lake is superb, with options offering either full hook-ups (refer to camping section on page 19) or primitive camping areas depending on how much you want to “rough it”. The campgrounds are quite busy. Reservations are recommended even for the free primitive campgrounds. Permits are required for any type of camping. You can make your campground reservations through their reservation portal on www.recreation.gov. For primitive camping permits, please call the local district office at (931) 243-3136.

There have been many new businesses and happenings around the lake in 2008. You can read more about some of these in the Annie’s Favorite’s section and the other stories scattered among the pages of this guide. We have even been fortunate enough to host 2 national fishing tournaments this past year with hopes to host more in the future.

Annie continues to travel around the region searching for those off-the-beaten track places and people that will enrich your stay while you are at Dale Hollow Lake, such as Darren Shell and his gravedigger tours (www.dalehollowgravedigger.com); or Jesse Walton, who can take you on some amazing guided kayak tours or rent a kayak to chart your own explorations. These are just a couple of ideas of how your family or group can enjoy Dale Hollow Lake from a diffe-rent perspective. There are many more within the pages of this guide!

We love Dale Hollow Lake and continue to thank God for the beauty that he has created, but more importantly for allowing the Burckhard family to be blessed by the best place on Earth to live, and allowing us to meet some of the nicest people in the world. We hope that you enjoy the Dale Hollow Lake Visitor’s Guide 2009 and find lots of things to plan for in the coming year.

We hope to see you at our lake soon and often.

Star Point Resort is one of the oldest on Dale Hollow Lake and has been

known as a family friendly fishing resort since its beginning in 1948. Speaking to owner Nathan Copeland, he recalled how the original fishermen coming to Star Point would fish in the fall, winter and spring, and the summer months would be considered the off-season. To-day, Dale Hollow Lake welcomes every-one throughout the year, catering to the families in the spring, summer and fall months and welcoming the fishermen any time. Star Point Resort was pur-chased in 1974 by Tommye Copeland. She was considered a maverick and a very determined young lady. She took the chance, against all odds, including spiraling interest rates and working in a man’s world, building up one of the most successful and profitable marinas with her hard work and vision. Star Point Vil-lage was one of the first developments on Dale Hollow Lake. It continues to be some of the most desired real estate on Dale Hollow Lake. Ms. Copeland passed away in 2005, leaving her footprint and memories with so many. Nathan, her nephew, worked with Ms. Copeland since his high school days and was the natural successor for the business. He loves the business and attributes their continued success to maintaining a family environment, long serving trained team members — including legendary Frog who works down at the gas dock, the friendly atmosphere and hospitable service.

The families that have been coming to Star Point Resort have been doing so for generations and feel like they are “coming home” when driving down Star Point Road. Star Point Resort has over 215 boat slips, with new docks being built every year. They have 31 rental units, including the Star Point Lodge, condos, private homes, and cabins.

Star Point Resort is known for its fishing knowledge and angler friendly environment — hosting several tourna-ments each year, including the Wal-Mart

BFL and the Boys and Girls Club charity fishing tournament in May. The annual Dale Hollow Bass Classic is shared be-tween Sunset Marina & Resort and Star Point Resort each October.

Fishing at Star Point Resort and Dale Hollow Lake is generational with many sons and daughters learning how to fish from their parents or grandparents. They in turn pass the passion on to their children. Dale Hollow Lake is known for its smallmouth and largemouth bass; however, it also offers excellent bluegill, crappie, and muskie fishing opportuni-ties. Fishing is a family friendly sport with many fishermen fishing competi-tively on tournament trails which offer prize winnings, fame and a special ca-maraderie on the fishing circuit.

STAR PoINT RESoRTNathan and wife, Michelle are

proud parents of three sons. Their old-est son Lance has just been accepted to Belmont University to attend phar-macy school. Sons Trevor and Corbin attend Pickett County Schools each with a very bright future of their own. Nathan enjoys his quiet time with his family during the winter months and loves to attend sporting functions. He also takes time to enjoy family vaca-tions with his parents Ernest and Nelda Copeland and Michelle’s family. Visit Star Point Resort’s up-to-date website for more information on upcoming fish-ing tournaments, accommodations, slip rentals and plan your memorable vacation today!

ARouNd THE dALE HoLLow LAkE AREA

FERRy TALESIn the fast paced hustle and bustle of our busy inter-

states, it’s hard to imagine a time when speed was just not of the essence. Years ago, travelers of our roads and highways encountered many obstacles standing in the way of their roadway progress. For instance, during spring rains, swollen creeks became a ford of a small river, making travel difficult if not impossible.

In still other places, modern bridges were built to han-dle the heavy traffic of a few dozen cars a day. These new-fangled and fancy iron structures were usually only one lane, forcing oncoming cars to wait until the first ve-hicle passed and again left the bridge open for travel.

But perhaps the most interesting and unique mode of river crossing was the ferry. Although there are still a few of these antiquated structures functioning to this day, ferries in rural areas have almost become a thing of the past.

Ferries around the Dale Hollow area, by most measur-able means, were a small floating barge capable of haul-ing one or two vehicles over the water to the far shore. Usually there were cables fastened to each shore that the barge was fastened to, allowing it to be pulled through the currents safely and quickly to its destination.

Of course, some of these early models varied in their building much like the men who built them. Some were vast and heavy steel structures with heavy cable systems for navigation, while others were little more than wooden boxes tied with gangly hemp rope.

obey River Ferry near Sunset Marina, 1920

There have been several sites where ferries op-erated within our Dale Hollow area. The earli-est was the Obey River

Ferry located where the Byrdstown water plant is now. It was here long before the lake and only operated a few years until a bridge was constructed. Abutments from that first bridge still lie beneath the lake surface.

Another ferry location was the East Port Ferry which crossed the West Fork of the Obey at the East Port Marina location. It was maintained many years after the building of the lake.

Yet another ferry was the Eagle Creek Ferry, also known as the Midway Ferry, that crossed Eagle Creek. Locally known as Keisling Bottom, this location still has a bridge beneath the surface near where the ferry crossed. A gravel road and launch ramp are still maintained in this location. Although many others were in charge of it over the years, Billy Sells and Clyde Taylor operated this ferry through the 1960s and shut it down in the very early 1970s.

The old wooden ferry building that stood along the road is still in existence. It’s been hauled up the road and now houses chickens rather than ferrymen. It’s still in the care of the Sells family, just as it was so many years ago.

There is yet one other ferry that has operated on Dale Hollow Lake. In fact, it still does. It seems unlikely that such a high maintenance item could be in use in a time when machinery of all sorts makes our lives easier. But there is one here. It is the Trooper Island Ferry Barge. Day in and day out the Kentucky State Police operate a shuttle between Trooper Island and the State Park Marina. It’s a labor of love that keeps the Trooper Island Camp as remote and beautiful as it is. That one motorized barge is the only way to and from the island. No road connects this special place to the outside world. It is what it has always been—a separate island entity, in and of itself.

Some days I take a long drive down to Keisling Bottom or maybe even out to the old East Port Ferry site. I reflect on a time I never knew, where cars sat patiently waiting on the river ferry to cart them to the far shore. These days, this antiquated mode of travel would be a nuisance, but maybe, just maybe, it would be worth the wait. Maybe we should slow ourselves down a bit and take a look around. Maybe we should chat with the ferrymen who make their living on the slow road, the Road Not Taken. For in a ferry world—the rush of life doesn’t get in the way.

On this day, I’ve taken the road less traveled, and that has made all the difference!

Tim and Diane Mowers of Dale Hollow BBQ work very closely together to offer several events during the year, including an antique car show in the spring and the Sgt. Wesley Tucker Memorial Ride in the fall. Wesley gave his all for his country. They have

established a memorial bike ride to commemorate his service. In 2008, 92 bikes from all over the southeast participated and rode along Dale Hollow Lake’s beautiful windy roads enjoying the fall colors and camaraderie as they rode for a great cause. Registration took place at 9:00 AM with t-shirts for all of those who participated. Tim and Diane had a fabulous feast and music for all who returned in the afternoon. The proceeds from this ride were set up to honor Sgt. Wesley Tucker’s family and to give back to the students in Celina, Clay County, TN in the form of scholarships. The Sgt. Wesley Tucker Memorial Ride takes place next October 10th, 2009. Tim and Diane invite all to participate. Bring your bikes down, stay in one of the local cabins, motels or campgrounds that are around the lake and enjoy fall at Dale Hollow Lake. Come visit the businesses on the “Top of Cedar Hill” and enjoy the warmth, friendliness and the delicious food. Bon Appétit!

How to gauge tHe weigHt oF FisH . . . iF You Don’t Have sCaLes.

Measure the fish from tip of nose to fork of tail then measure around the fish in front of the Pectoral fins. Now take the girth measurement and square it, then multiply this by the

length measurement and divide the sum total by 800.Example: Girth of fish = 12” : Length of fish = 30”

12 x 12 = 144, multiply by 30 = 4320 and divided by 800 = 5.4 pounds. THE WEIGHT OF YOUR FISH!

when the weather is right, my favorite thing to do is to go fishing. There

is nothing more perfect than launching a boat into Dale Hollow Lake and smelling that clean cool air that comes off the water. I always stick my hand off the side of the boat just to feel the water. To me, Dale Hol-low Lake is sacred. I have been searching its depths for fish since I was old enough to hold a pole. My favorite memories are fishing with my grandfather and my father.

There is a difference between fishing with my father and fishing with my pa. When I fish with dad, it is like hunting for fish. We jump in his bass boat which looks like something out of Star Wars because it has so many gadgets. I get nervous about breaking things because his boat is nicer than my car. I feel like a circus clown be-cause he gives me polarized sunglasses and a hat to wear that’s big enough for a sack of potatoes. Then we actually scour the coves for bass. When you add a silly hat and superman shades, it causes you to develop x-ray vision and you can see down in the water. It is like watching fish television because you can watch them go about their usual routines. Then it is up to you to pick the correct bait to entice the fish. With Dad’s method sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. I think my fa-vorite thing is seeing his face after I have caught a fish. He looks so animated, so

boat it is like comparing a Ford Pinto to a Mercedes. Actually, pa’s boat is a really nice Pinto because I think it is the only jon boat with a depth finder, bucket seats, and an engine almost as big as the back of the boat. I don’t mind my pa’s way of fishing, I think I actually like it better. When I was younger I never wanted to bait my own hook. Now, I love grabbing an earthworm, ripping it in half, and sliding it onto the hook. I feel as if I have conquered a fear. It doesn’t bother me anymore to have worm guts on my hands. Pa and I always catch plenty of fish. They may not be bass, but I have just as much fun. When I was little I would always get tickled when pa would say we are fishing for crappie. My pa is a man of few words and it is the same way when we go fishing. The thing I love the most is watching him jump up when I get a big fish. It is so funny how he thinks I will have trouble reeling it in the boat. He still sees me as a little girl. That is another priceless moment.

I guess I owe Dale Hollow Lake my memories. I know I owe it my fondest, most priceless moments. Dale Hollow has a healing power. No matter how bad life may seem at times, I can always sweet talk pa or dad and we can head out to the lake. All the stress melts away and I am just there enjoying something that can never be purchased.

happy that I have caught a fish. It seems as if it gives him greater joy for me to catch a fish than when he catches his own. Mo-ments like that are priceless to me.

With my pa, it is a different story entirely. We buy some earthworms and jump in his jon boat and troll around hoping for luck to be on our side. I’m not saying that pa’s boat isn’t nice, but compared to my dad’s

dHL FISH HATCHERy & dAMT he Dale Hollow National Fish Hatchery is a huge asset

not only to the Dale Hollow Lake region, but to our nation. They fill a vital role in the management of our nation’s fishery resources. In addition to this aspect of their duties, they welcome more than 50,000 visitors annu-ally to view the hatchery, aquarium and visitor center in Celina, TN. They provide off site presentations throughout the year, as well as maintaining a walking area and exer-cise road. There is also a public fishing area with plenty of space to view nature.

Each year, the Dale Hollow Lake Fish Hatchery plays host to a Kids Fishing Rodeo. What better way can we inspire our young people to connect with Dale Hollow Lake? Bring your children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews to the DHL National Fish Hatchery on June 6th for a fun morning of fishing and great prizes. They are sure to have an experience that they will not soon forget.

Andrew Currie, Hatchery Manager, welcomes everyone interested to stop by to tour the facility. He and his staff enjoy meeting their many visitors. They are open daily from 7:30AM-3:30PM (CST). Each tour includes a visit to the aquarium, visitor center, short film and a hatchery tour. They are located at 145 Fish Hatchery Rd., Celina, TN 38551.

T here is a lot to know about Chef Zoom of Sunset Restaurant on beautiful Dale Hollow Lake. He has been turning out some won-

derful dishes over the past few summers, and always likes to turn it up a notch with his Cajun cooking — one of his specialties. What’s not to like about Chef Zoom? He is always happy, strumming his gui-tar, and serving visitors a wonderful meal. Not every restaurant has a personality and soul like this one; Chef Zoom at Sunset Restaurant creates a unique atmosphere.

He was born in Ft. Benning, GA and raised in Ohio. After he turned 18, he joined the military and ended up in the south on the Gulf Coast and in the Carolinas. Cooking was a hobby at the time, but at age 40, cooking became his life. He attended a cooking school in Louisville and began cooking with Chef Jim Bonan at Escofier in Bardstown, KY. Jim, an accomplished chef himself, traveled and cooked extensively in Europe and has published a quintessential cookbook. Following that experience, Zoom worked with John Hall in Bardstown at Dagwoods for 9 years. John taught him one of the most important lessons in cooking; sight, smell and taste are the fun-damentals. Bringing personality into a dish is an art that chefs spend hours perfecting and Chef Zoom is excellent at his craft. Zoom has graced Dale Hollow Lake with his passion for cooking and serves up some of his favorite dishes like his award winning “Shrimp Baton Rouge”, “Shrimp Elisabeth” and a “Gulf Coast Enchilada” that he is sharing here with our readers and on www.Go2DHL.com.

Cooking should be fun and is a form of entertainment and socializing for many. Zoom endeavors to create a memorable expe-rience for his clients’ taste buds and he loves to see their reaction when they take that first bite of food. He revels in their feedback.

CHEF “ZooM” - Lakeside dining at Sunset RestaurantZoom loves Dale Hollow Lake and feels blessed to be able to “move it up a notch” at the lake. He regularly offers his Cajun and Creole specialties on the specials board throughout the summer. He cred-its the vision of Sunset’s owner and manager Tom Allen for hiring him when he did, and for allowing him the leeway of expanding the menu, and to cook with no boundaries. Of course, every restaurant needs good management and an excellent serving team. Sunset Restaurant is known for great service, friendly and professional wait staff, and quality food.

When he isn’t cooking and working at Sunset Restaurant, Zoom loves to visit “mom and pop” restaurants and experience their south-ern cooking. He loves sitting on his porch, sipping bourbon and playing his guitar. Sometimes you will find Zoom strumming outside the kitchen door at Sunset, if he can take a few moments, to enjoy the lake view and play music — his other passion. When asked what his biggest accomplishment has been at Sunset Restaurant on Dale Hollow Lake, he feels like it has been in his ability to offer his unique style of cooking and culinary atmosphere to the Dale Hollow Lake region. His repeat customers from Nashville, Knoxville, Fairfield Glade, Florida, New York and the Midwestern states have been visiting Dale Hollow Lake for generations and obviously love the experience. Sunset Restaurant opens the first week of April and closes towards the end of October each year. Visit Sunset Marina and Resort’s website for up-to-date restaurant hours, houseboat and cabin rental rates, catering, special events, a peak through their webcam and more!

If you happen to be in Byrdstown on the first Saturday of the month, from March through October, be sure to stop

by Dale Hollow Shell. The Byrdstown Kountry Kruisers (www.ByrdstownKountryKruisers.webs.com) will have congregated for their monthly Cruise In. Johnny & Janice Sells, Robert & Joyce Bond, Darrell & Lisa Huddleston, along with some of their family and friends decided sometime in 2006 to start a local car show/cruise in. They all LOVE their vintage automobiles and wanted to share that passion with other like-minded individuals. So, they visited some of the other automobile events around the area and found that no one else was meeting on the first Saturday of the month. That became their date.

For those of you that don’t know what a Cruise In is, it is a gathering of folks that want to get together to have a good time, show off their prized autos, listen to some vintage music and visit a while. You don’t even have to bring a vehicle to display. Just come and hang out with everyone. Everyone comes and goes as they please. You can bring a car, truck, motorcycle, or whatever. The weekend of the 4th of July, a group of speedboaters came up from the lake to show off their machines. They have also incorporated a Swap Meet to add to the Cruise In, so if you have anything automobile related that you want to bring to swap, bring it along. They have seen a fairly steady growth in turn out for the event. People come from all over with many from Indiana and Ohio. On average, around 35-40 autos show up each month with that number expected to increase as word gets around. Even the high gas prices of this summer

haven’t kept people from coming.

Cruise Ins are plentiful around the area. Most are monthly gatherings from March through October, while others are once a year. A listing of those that we are aware of follows. However, we realize that there are most

likely others around the region. We invite our readers to let us know about those, too. As we receive this information, we will try to list what we can on our website events calendar: www.Go2DHL.com.

C hestnut Hill Winery opened in the fall of 2007 and has been offering visitors a fun day outing with tastes

of Tennessee wines and cheeses with great hospitality. Harold, Nancy, Darrin and Trudi Stryker are the current own-ers of the winery, conveniently located at the East Bound Entrance, Exit #322, off of I-40. They have had a lot of fun with this new venture, and thank everyone for making their dream become a reality and an overwhelming success.

The Stryker’s moved to Cumberland County in 1977. Since that time, they have operated a 525 acre farm, opened the Farm Pantry Restaurant serving beef raised on their farm, and have opened their real estate office United Country Town & Country Realty in Crossville, TN, home of Fairfield Glade. They acquired “Chestnut Hill Winery” in May of 2007. After “combing its hair and brushing its teeth” (as Harold describes it) with extensive renovations, they have extended the wine selection and added a great gift store. Chestnut Hill Winery is a desti-nation for wine tastings, window tours, and gift shopping with an amazing restaurant next door, The Brass Lantern, that will tantalize your taste buds with a gourmet menu of veal, seafood, lamb or steaks. Pastry Chef Netti will

tempt you with daily homemade desserts that are the perfect touch with coffee or tea.

The Chestnut Hill Winery Gift Store is a very unique gift shop where everything is wine related with many items specially produced for the winery under the “Chestnut Hill Winery” label. There is also a great selection of items “Made in Tennessee” such as their signature cheeses, hand crafted items, and works by Tennessee authors. Their Tennessee cheeses are produced at Tennessee dairy farms and are proudly served at their wine tastings. There is a special coffee roasted in Maryville, Tennessee, Grandpa Yoder’s Amish-made jams and jellies, Tennessee River BBQ Sauce, and locally produced honey. Chestnut Hill Winery’s wine is produced on site and their “WINE MAKER” Marty Hoover brought his expertise of 12 years to Chestnut Hill Winery. Marty is confident to expand the wine selection over the next few years to come, and loves to talk to anyone about wine. Visit Chestnut Hill Winery and meet their friendly staff and enjoy a taste of the Cumberland Plateau! Wine tasting is free and window tours are available at any time. Bus and RV Parking is available! www.ChestnutHillWinery.com.

ITEMS YOU WON’T FIND ANYWHERE ELSE!


Robert and Shirley Sturgill retired to the Dale Hollow Lake area many years ago and love

the outdoors. They love to fish, hunt, and boat, have family over, and spend time with their grand-children. One of their greatest passions is collect-ing arrowheads. They have collected arrowheads for over twenty years in the Dale Hollow Lake re-gion and have a knack for finding them. Robert’s eyes just light up when he starts talking about them and he is proud to show off his collection. Now I’ve never had the good fortune of finding an arrowhead, even though I am always looking down for something special when I am hiking. My belief is that hunting for arrowheads is somewhat like hunting for a four leaf clover, it takes a trained eye, a bit of luck or talent or a special gift from God to find that special arrowhead or that four leaf clover. My late Oma from Germany or my niece Delaney

could/can look down at a field of clover and find a four leaf clover almost immediately. These arrowheads date back hundreds of years and have been resting all around us

waiting to be discovered. The best time to collect arrowheads is after a rain, or when a field or area has been freshly plowed. Plowed fields along creeks and rivers, as well as river banks and dry lake beds are the most popular places for hunting relics, since early inhabit-ants built their villages and hunted in these areas. It is a great love/hobby of the Sturgill’s. They spend many hours per month trying to find that special treasure to add to their collec-tion. They have collected antique fishing lures, tools, buttons and weaponry from the civil war era, stirrups, old money, indigenous people artifacts and lots and lots of arrowheads.

Displaying the arrowheads is also an art. Those who do collect often trade out their ar-rowheads for others among the wide network of collectors around the world. Most folks have special wood cases made to display their special treasures. You can find several craftsmen in the region who construct these cases out of special wood, such as oak, cherry and pine. Now what constitutes a great arrowhead over a mediocre arrowhead? The thin-ner the arrowhead, the older the arrowhead is. The indigenous people used arrowheads for weaponry, knives, tools and many other uses. The different tribes had different forms and different colors, due in part to the different materials available to them to create the arrowheads, and what region of the world they were found in.

There are reference books that will allow you to learn more about arrowheads, or points as they are called in the professional world, such as the seventh edition of Overstreet’s Indian Arrowheads, by Robert M. Overstreet. This reference book will explain to you the 8 forms of arrowheads and how to classify an arrowhead. Folks who collect arrowheads treasure each day following a rain, as they know that their treasures are just waiting for them in that field or bank somewhere.

There are displays of arrowheads around the region such as at The Farmhouse Res-taurant, Bailey’s Moodyville Country Store and the Sturgills. Some points to make your arrowhead hunt successful and enjoyable; make sure that you ask permission before going on someone’s property and keep in mind that collecting artifacts off of Corps of Engineers property or other public lands is not allowed. Happy Hunting!

T his Park is one of the true gems in the State of Tennessee. Ms. Robin Peeler,

Park Manager, has been very instrumental in creating some projects and completing oth-ers that make this a great destination for an afternoon of fun.

The newest addition to the beautiful park is a period correct Kitchen Garden as part of the park program. A small group of volun-teers along with the park staff planted the garden in May, and then attended to it regu-larly throughout the growing season. Period fencing surrounds the kitchen garden and you can find plants from the era that depict

the way it was in years gone by complete with a scarecrow to help deter pests. During the Cordell Hull Festival in May of 2008, Judy Stearns dressed in period attire and tended to the garden, answering questions from some of those in attendance and lending authenticity to the exhibit.

Bunkum Trail continues to be a hit and the complete trail encompasses about 2 miles with the shorter trail being about 1.5 miles. These well groomed trails are an easy to moderate hike and will take you down to Cordell Hull’s father’s cave, where it is alleged that he made moonshine to support his family and his son, Cordell’s, education. There are beautiful benches placed all along the way. The hiking trail is open year round and some of the best hiking is in the fall and early spring. In the fall you can enjoy the brightly colored foliage and crackling of the autumn leaves on the forest floor, and see through the vegetation to the world that lies beneath and beyond. In the spring as the soil begins to warm, you can enjoy the first blossoms bursting forth, such as the indigenous May apple, jack in the pulpit, cardinal flower, fire pink, tooth wort, Christmas ferns, Redbud, Dogwood and more along the route with the new vegetation seeming to grow before your eyes.

Make sure to visit the Cordell Hull Website, www.friendsofcordellhull.org and check out their spring wildflower walks, guided by park staff. If you visit in 2009, you might see a major addition being made to the Cordell Hull Museum. They will be starting an addition to house the artifacts in a new state-of-the art facility, with storage, a research area and climate control area for these valuable artifacts that Cordell Hull willed to the citizens of Pickett County which are managed by the non-profit “Friends of Cordell Hull” group.

Another noteworthy item of interest, famous singer/songwriter Mark Elliott was so inspired by Cordell Hull’s life and accomplishments following a visit to the museum in summer of 2007, he wrote a song called “Cordell”. It is now on his latest CD — “GOOD LIFE” released by Cub Creek Records and on a fundraising CD for the Friends of Cordell Hull that will be available for purchase through their website in the near future. Mark’s goal is to increase the awareness of Cordell’s work in the world, especially his role in the United Nations. Also, the Cordell Hull State Park was recently invited to speak at a chapter of the United Nation’s Association luncheon in Nashville where Park Manager Robin Peeler gave a speech about Cordell Hull and his role in founding the United Nations. This partnership between the state park, the Friends group, and this United Nations’ Chapter will allow a greater outreach to share his story, his great works and touch the lives of school groups and citizens of this country and the world.

Cordell Hull was appointed Secretary of State by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1933 and served until 1944, longer than any other secretary. He was given the sobri-quet “Father of the United Nations” by Roosevelt. In 1945 he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace for his role in establishing the United Nations.

The Cordell Hull Birthplace and Museum loves to host school groups, church groups, women’s groups and more. They can also accommodate small meeting groups, wom-en’s retreats and family reunions. Please call ahead and let Park Manager Robin Peeler know that you are coming, to insure a guided tour! The park hours are 9:00AM-5:00PM April through October and 9:00AM-4:00PM November through March, 7 days a week. Tel: 931-864-3247 or website, www.friendsofcordellhull.org

THE CoRdELL HuLL BIRTHPLACE STATE HISToRIC PARk

In the late 18th Century, around 1780, Daniel Boone came through the Cumberland Gap

and found abundant wildlife and fertile fields. He went back to North Carolina and told the folks of this wonderful place he had found. Many of the Revolutionary War soldiers followed him back to Kentucky. There, with the help of land grants, they were able to start a new life.

These pioneers worked hard and other than working hard, worshiping was a very important part of the lives of these families. Worship started out in their homes, but with the number

one of the Burckhard’s favorite things to do in the spring or fall is to pack a lunch and

head over to the Pleasant Grove Family Day Use area and cross the swinging bridge. It is really cool crossing the bridge and hiking around the island. The Pleasant Grove Recreation Area is located on a peninsula on pristine Dale Hollow Lake. It is a perfect place to fish, have a picnic, skip rocks and just hang out. Grant, Blake and I love to bring Austin, our dog, who needs to be on a leash, to the area and just enjoy the scenery. In the fall, the majestic foliage is fantastic about mid to end October. If we time it just right, we can be part of “Top of Cedar Hill’s Wesley Tucker Memorial Ride” and eat at Dale Hollow BBQ! The

BBQ in Celina is awesome, making it hard to choose which barbecue to eat. Dale Hollow Barbecue has been around the longest and is known for its sliced shoulder, slow roasted barbecue and homemade sides. Dale Hollow #1 Stop BBQ is known for its succulent hickory roasted pork shoulder and their homemade desserts - perfect food for a picnic. If you are in the mood for something more exotic, try JuJu’s paninis, wraps, salads and smoothies. You can order ahead of time and bring your picnic over to the island and just enjoy the fish jumping, the occasional eagle flying overhead, or the waves lapping on shore. This is a perfect afternoon trip with the family or your friends. Don’t forget to visit the Dale Hollow Dam and the Dale Hollow Fish Hatchery while you are in the area, they are just minutes away.

This dream and vision became a reality in 1804, with the building of what is now the second oldest log meeting house in Kentucky. It has 12 corners and is in the shape of a cross with three doors symbolic of the Holy Trinity. It was built during a period of the religious revival known as the Restoration Movement in the South. John Mulkey was the first preacher of record at the Mill Creek Baptist Church with about 150 people attending service regularly. In 1809, a controversy arose over the teachings of Pastor John Mulkey. He struggled with some of the beliefs in the Baptist doctrine and was tried three times for heresy. Finally, it was decided that it was time to choose sides. He told his congregation that those who believed in his teachings to go out the west door and the others to go out the east door. Those who went out the east door went a few hills over and continued building the Mill Creek Baptist Church, which is known today as the Mill Creek Missionary Baptist Church. Pastor John Mulkey’s church became The Old Mulkey Meetinghouse. He continued preaching until 1856, delivering over 10,000 sermons in his lifetime. The Old Mulkey Meetinghouse was taken over by the Kentucky Parks in 1931 and has been restored. Today, it is a well visited state historic site, located minutes from several of the Dale Hollow Lake marinas on the north east side of the lake.

The Old Mulkey Meeting House is open to the public year round and is open 7 days a week from 9-5 PM CST. There are picnic shelters and playgrounds to enjoy. It is a very popular place for weddings, family reunions and group pictures due to the beautiful, rustic, and historic setting. Ms. Sheila Rush, Director of the Old Mulkey Meetinghouse, loves to give tours and really appreciates a call beforehand so that she can lead the tours. There are also lots of events at the park including the Monroe County Heritage Festival which takes place each spring. It has a Civil War Interpretive area, crafts, quilts, period clothing and so much more. One of the most unique events is their Easter Dog-Gone Egg Hunt. Dogs and their owners “sniff out” hundreds of treat-filled Easter eggs and the dogs paraded their best “Dog-Gone Bonnets.” This is a very unique one-of-a-kind event in the nation and one of the most unusual on Dale Hollow Lake.

For more information about the list of events, to reserve a family or school function, or just visit The Old Mulkey Meeting House, call Sheila Rush at (270) 487-8481 or Bob Greer at the Tompkinsville Inn, (270) 287-9228.

Another really neat event at Dale Hollow Lake each September at Standing Stone State

Park is the National Rolley Hole Championship. This is a great event for serious marble players and enthusiasts. Players from all over the region, the country and sometimes the world come to play Rolley Hole marbles at this national event. There are pitches for Tennessee Square, Ringer, GA Rolley Hole and British marbles. This event is world renown and is sponsored by Honest Abe

Log Homes, the premier log home builder/manufacturer in the country, with its national headquarters located in nearby Moss, TN. The event crowns the champion per category. You can feel the intense concentration in the play going on throughout the day. It is really fascinating to sit and watch these gentlemen, bend down on their knees and using that perfect, handmade marble that they have specially chosen to play the game.

In addition to marbles, families can enjoy live bluegrass music, children’s activities such as marble making, clay, flint and glass demonstrations, and children’s marble games. One of my favorite activities is watching Paul Davis, whom I met at the Rolley Holley Marble Dome in Tompkinsville, Kentucky, make marbles out of flint. We were fascinated by the precision and skill required to make that perfect marble. He demonstrated taking a piece of flint, grinding it down until it became a round marble shape, repeatedly measuring the marble for its circumference until it was perfect. The last step is smoothing it out before it sits in a marble player’s hands as he is ready to become the world championship marble thrower.

Tennessee has many excellent parks dotted across the state, and the Dale Hollow Lake region is fortunate to have several parks within minutes or less than an hour away that offer hiking, camping, cabin rentals, swimming, boating,

bird watching and so much more. Standing Stone State Park and Forest covers nearly 11,000 acres of hilly terrain and the geology and natural diversity are very significant. The wooded forests encompass oak and hickory hardwoods, with the more densely wooded areas offering some excellent and abundant spring and summer wildflowers and a wide array of wildlife.

The park was developed during the Great Depression of the 1930’s by the federal works program that this area so much benefited from. It was constructed by the CCC, the Civilian Conservation Corps. Standing Stone has three types of cabins — rustic, timber lodge and modern, and has a great, full hook-up

camping area. Standing Stone State Park also offers an Olympic size swimming pool, tennis courts and over 8 miles of hiking trails. There are picnic pavilions, playgrounds and group lodges. Standing Stone State Park is minutes away from the newest marina and restaurant on Dale Hollow Lake — Mitchell Creek Marina and Restaurant and is also close to Horse Creek Marina and minutes from Celina or Livingston, TN.

T op of Cedar Hill at Dale Hollow Lake has become the “fun” place to be with

Dale Hollow BBQ and GT’s Sports Bar and Grill teaming up to offer several events throughout the year. Both offer excellent food and entertainment within walking distance of several marinas. Diane Mow-ers and her cook, Rick, have been serv-ing up delicious BBQ on Dale Hollow Lake for over ten years —succulent pulled and sliced pork, chicken, and an amazing BBQ ham that is out of this world. Locals and visitors order the BBQ ham for family re-unions, weddings, holidays, and picnics. The taste is amazing and gives Honey Baked Ham a run for their money! The sides are all home made and generous, in-cluding coleslaw, baked beans, potato sal-ad and more. Rick is known for his amaz-ing carving abilities. He won first prize at the Monroe Co. Watermelon Festival this year! He carves fish, baby carriages, fire trucks and decorative watermelon fruit bowls for special events, family reunions, weddings and competition. Dale Hollow BBQ loves to cater. They have done so for several years, including business func-tions, family gatherings, weddings, com-pany events, and have had a lot of fun over the years setting up at the Putnam County Fair. Dale Hollow BBQ is the original BBQ at Dale Hollow Lake. It is within walking distance of Dale Hollow Marina and Cedar Hill Resort. (931) 243-2297

Bailey’s is one of my favorite general stores in the Moodyville communi-

ty. Original owner, George Rich started the store in 1955 offering the staples needed for the Moodyville and Clark Mountain residents for many decades. The store continues to be a part of the fabric of this community. Today, Bailey’s Moodyville Country Store is owned and operated by Delilah Bailey and family from Ohio. The store offers a full line of Amish cheeses, meats, dairy, honey, homemade jams and jellies, and spices along with homemade fudge and can-dies — all perfect for a gift basket or for

a good home cooked meal. I love going there and stocking up on spices, grains, and other popular bulk foods found at many Amish and Mennonite stores. They also have antique collectibles, gift items and a full line of popular cook-books that make perfect gifts and are a must for your cabin, vacation home or houseboat galley. Take a drive over from Jamestown, Albany or Byrdstown along Hwy. 325E and experience a beautiful drive with amazing scenery.

Stop in at Bailey’s to get a steaming hot cup of coffee and a biscuit along the way and make sure that you tell Delilah that “Annie” sent you. They also offer home cooked plate lunches which may include soups, chili, catfish, BBQ or many other delicious specials. A couple of my favor-ite meals are their catfish dinner and the yummy chicken n’ dumplings. Bailey’s Moodyville Country Store still offers your general staples like milk, eggs, tomatoes, potatoes, onions, butter and more for those last minute items. You can reach them by phone at (931) 864-3697.

Owner, Catlyn Thomas and girls, Dakota and Sky, have “poured” their love and passion into what started out as an enchanted garden center offering a wide variety of plants, herbs and shrub-bery; adding a charming café and coffee shop. The choice of Panini’s, fresh salads, soups, espresso drinks and smoothies are excellent and the latte that Catlyn prepared for me was superb. My taste buds were smiling when I took my first bite of my por-tabella and provolone Panini dressed with red onion, fresh spinach, tomatoes and zesty wasabi mayo. Most of the vegeta-bles and all of the fresh herbs come from their garden. Fresh meats and cheeses are used to compliment every sandwich and salad. I was so excited to hear that the choice of fresh soups that day included an Indian vegetable soup with a hint of curry, ginger and coriander. There was also a delicious andouille sausage and vegetable soup. The choice of soups varies day to day. Some of their popular drinks during the summer are their juju glacial drink and their groovy smoothies. They have some awesome flavors including the Caribbean colada, peach, mango and the popular a.p.b, which is an acai, pomegranate and blueberry smoothie made with a fresh fruit base. This is the perfect place to hang out and sip your coffee, read the newspaper, check emails and have a bite to eat. Oc-casionally on a Friday or Saturday evening, The JuJu Bean Café offers acoustic musi-cal entertainment. Come on down. They are located in the Brickhouse on 812 E. Lake Ave. in Celina, TN.

Main Street Deli has a new owner — the owner of Wolf River Grill. The

business has recently undergone major renovations that reflect the ambience that Wolf River Grill is known for, plus a great expanded menu. Owner Fred Almeyer and Pansy are offering delicious sandwiches that have big city taste and creativity, but at small town prices. Main Street Deli of-fers delicious Reuben’s with hand carved corned beef on delicious rye bread, topped off with just the right amount of sauerkraut, Swiss cheese and Thousand Island dress-ing. One of their best sellers is the Italian focaccia sandwich made on a sun dried tomato focaccia topped with salami, ham and turkey with a slice of red onion, Swiss cheese and special sauce. Their Philly Cheese Steak sandwich is loaded with Philly steak, onions, green peppers, mush-rooms and provolone cheese. Excellent! Fred claims to be a pizza connoisseur and Main Street Deli’s pizzas are made with fresh ingredients; cheeses and toppings are piled on and then cooked to perfec-tion — an excellent meal for the family or office. My favorite is the “Maui”— a per-fect blend of ham, pineapple, onions and cheeses. They also offer appetizers, hand formed beef burgers, chicken tenders and much more. They offer some of the best lunch options around even on Sunday af-ternoons. Call in your orders to Main Street Deli and pick up lunch to take to your boat, cabin, office, or on your way home or be-fore enjoying a Friday night out on the town. The porch is also a great place to have a birthday party, special event or just enjoy the relaxing atmosphere while you take in the local scenery. Main Street Deli can be contacted by phoning, (931) 864-DELI.

overton Restaurant has been serving some delicious home cooked meals

for many years. Pat and Bill Clark owned and operated the restaurant from 1958 until their recent retirement. New owners, Valerie Kingery, her brother Richard, and her grandma have been in the restaurant business for most of their lives. They love cooking and serving quality home cooked

meals. Some of their specialties include hamburger steaks, cheeseburgers, cat-fish dinners and sirloin steaks. They are really proud of their fried chicken, which uses her grandma’s secret recipe. Pa-trons from near and far come regularly for their fried chicken and all the fixings. They make homemade cobblers daily, including apple, cherry, strawberry and my favorite peach, served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. They serve breakfast all day and are open 7 days a week from 5:00 AM to 8:00 PM. Valerie and her team invite you to share a meal at the Overton Restaurant and let them serve you with a quality meal and great service with a smile. Overton Restaurant adjoins the Overton Motel and is at the junction of Hwy. 52 in Livingston. (931) 823-4964

T he Parkway Family Restaurant in Liv-ingston, TN is a special place that of-

fers authentic, home cooked meals lov-ingly prepared by Joann and Kelly Jones. Jo has been in the restaurant business her whole life, working for Ms. Emma Stover, previous owner of the Parkway Restau-rant. However Kelly, Jo’s husband, never worked in the restaurant business until he met the love of his life and moved from Canada. The couple met playing cards

on-line and started a friendship that turned into a relationship which led to their mar-riage on July 14, 2007. 9 days later they jumped in with both feet and bought the Parkway Restaurant. We all love to have our comfort foods, especially when we are sick, feeling blue or just in the mood. I can tell you that their breakfast is superb. Kelly made me an absolutely delicious western style omelet that hung over my plate. Kelly grinned when he served this one up to me; he knew that I would love it! I never had an omelet that I liked more than my own before, but I have now. Grant, also a lover of all things breakfast, dug into his delicious French toast. Blake, who is not a breakfast fan, ordered a hand formed, Angus burger that came loaded with all the fixin’s. This put a big smile on his face, too. The Parkway Restaurant is known for their weekend catfish dinners. Folks drive from all over to enjoy their scrumptious catfish. Their coleslaw is very good — not too much mayonnaise and just the right tangy ingredients to compliment the fish and hushpuppies. They also have a rib eye steak special on Friday nights and breakfast all day long.

Jo and Kelly believe in quality food, good service and hospitality and it shows. Their customers continue to come back for the excellent food, wonderful hospitality and great service. The Parkway Restaurant caters to businesses and functions in the area and also has a side room, perfect for parties, reunions, baby showers and other family/business functions. They are open 6 days a week — closed on Mondays. The restaurant business is demanding; however, Jo and Kelly love the people they serve and love being in the business. Stop in and tell them “Hi from Annie” and make sure to have one of their delicious omelets, burgers or their catfish dinner. (931) 823-9414

uncle Jacks B.B.Q. is the new home of the award winning Rocking “C” Bar-

becue team. They offer some of the best beef briskets on Dale Hollow Lake. They are conveniently located on Hwy. 127, in Static (on the state line between Kentucky and Tennessee). Clifton and wife, Sherry, moved from Texas several years ago after Clifton inherited his Uncle Jack’s home in Tennessee. They opened Uncle Jack’s in December 2007. Clifton and Sherry know how to cook Texas BBQ and had been winning a lot of cook-offs and participat-ing in many fundraising events feeding 50-1,000 people at each event before relocat-ing. They decided to buy a small house in Static, which they have lovingly fixed up to be one of the hottest BBQ spots on Dale Hollow Lake. The secret to any BBQ is the sauce and the way the meat is cooked. Theirs is slow cooked to perfec-tion in a specially made smoker; mesquite and hickory are their magic ingredients that give the Jack’s meat its smoky, suc-culent, tender qualities. Several times a year, Clifton and Sherry go to Texas to pick up a load of Mesquite. Their beef brisket melts in your mouth. The other meats are also very delicious, topped off with their special mild or spicy BBQ sauce, which is ketchup based with an excellent blend of spices. They offer sliced shoulder, pulled pork and chicken, BBQ ribs and lots of homemade sides. Some of my favorites are their tangy homemade coleslaw, baked beans, and Texas Toast. Clifton cooks the meat for 8-12 hours or more, and is often seen behind the restaurant at his smoker lovingly tending to the meat. Uncle Jack’s also offers breakfast Wednesday through Sunday, but they are closed on Monday and Tuesday. Uncle Jack’s loves to ca-ter, do special events, reunions or be part of festivals and events around the region. Uncle Jack’s can be contacted by phon-ing, (606) 387-4005.

The school that he painstak-ingly built upon his return still stands ad-jacent to the York Institute in Jamestown, TN. It is the only state funded school in Tennessee. The first annual Sgt. York Day 2008 celebrated his 90th anniversary by unveiling the bust sculpted by Mr. Barnes, speeches made by many dignitaries and veterans, and the unveiling of the com-memorative knife that is now on sale on the website, www.sgtyork.org. Sgt. York Day offered many craft vendors, music, food, military artifacts, and tours of the old home place, museum, the gravesite and much more. Sgt.

Sierra Hull, Dale Hollow Lake’s childhood prodigy is now a senior in high school.

She has dazzled the bluegrass world since an early age. Recently nominated for the International Bluegrass Music Asso-ciation’s Mandolin Player of the Year, she continues to be one of the top mandolin players in the world, delighting bluegrass fans with her beautiful voice and remark-able talent. Sierra recently toured Japan after being invited to play for passionate bluegrass fans from Tokyo, Nagoya and many other Japanese cities. The Japa-

nese liaison to the International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA), also represent-ing the famous bluegrass “Moonshiners” magazine, acted as their host, interpreter, and scheduler. Sierra and her Hwy. 111 band, which includes brother, Cody and several other gifted musicians, enjoyed this cultural experience and were honored to have so many enthusiastic fans listen-ing to their music.

Sierra started playing the mandolin at age eight and quickly stood out as be-ing a highly gifted and talented musician. She has toured with Allison Krauss and recently recorded and released an album with Rounder Records called “Secrets” with accomplished musician Ron Block.

Sierra Hull is a very humble, beautiful young lady who is looking forward to ad-ditional touring, perhaps in Europe and other parts of the world. She just wants to share her passion with everyone. Si-erra Hull and Hwy. 111 were recently honored to play at the famous Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, TN and have a couple of concerts booked in Oregon and New York at the beginning of 2009. I have been following Sierra’s success from the beginning and I must say that she is extremely blessed by God as a gifted musician and wonderful human being. God is an important part of Si-erra and her family’s lives. She recently had the honor of playing Billy Graham’s sister in “Billy: The Early Years”. Awards have flooded this talented young lady. For more information on her concert schedule and more, visit her website, www.sierrahull.com, and don’t forget to purchase her latest CD “Secrets” avail-able at the Shell in Byrdstown, her web-site, and at Amazon.com.

In March 08, I found out I had breast cancer. In April 08, I had both breasts removed. About 2 weeks after surgery, I was at my mother’s sitting in her yard, thinking about life and all the things I’ll miss and things I love, if I don’t beat this. And this butterfly landed on the lilac bush beside me. So, I thought of the song: Love is Like a Butterfly! Now, I’m taking chemo for the rest of the summer. So everyday, I think of this butterfly and the things and people I love. Thank you for your time

Each year we receive hundreds of photos, all of which we thoroughly enjoy. We know that by sending your treasured photos, you are sharing a portion of the wonder of Dale Hollow Lake that lives within your hearts. These are your

special memories that you are sharing with us. Most of the time, all we receive are the photos. On occasion, someone takes the time to also share in words what their picture means to them. They are wonderful happy memories that have been made around the lake. This year, we received a special letter from M. Thomas. Her letter touched our hearts and we would like to share it with you along with her photo. We didn’t use her full name to help protect her privacy.

My name is M. Thomas. I want to tell you the story behind this picture.

FAMILy RAILRoAD ADVENTuRE

T he Big South Fork Scenic Railway allows passengers to experience one of the last remaining company towns, with

an operational railroad and reconstructed coal camp that was originally built during the early nineteen hundreds. The Scenic Railway is located in the National Historic District of Stearns, Kentucky, located on the northern end of the Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area and west of interstate I-75. Your family will enjoy the 16-mile round trip upon the 100 year old, Kentucky & Tennessee Railway known as the “Route of the Painted Rocks”. This ride is full of spectacular vistas, lush vegetation and free flowing mountain streams as it descends 600 feet into the river gorge. The Big South Fork of the Cumberland River and remnants from the communities that once lined the railway now serve as reminders of days gone by.

Regular departures, April through October, upon the K&T Special take 3 hours and include a new section of track through the mining camp of Worley. Worley was the largest mining community along the K&T. Today, a few foundations are all that remain. The National Park Service has installed in-terpretive panels that can be viewed from the train. The train makes a stop at Blue Heron Coal Mining Camp, a National Park Service outdoor interpretive site. Blue Heron was built by the Stearns Coal & Lumber Company in 1937 and oper-ated until 1962. The coal camp contains “ghost structures”, which display visual and oral history exhibits. Visitors to Blue Heron can walk into the face of the mine as well as cross over the river on the tipple bridge. The Railway offers additional experiences by taking a Cab Ride, Caboose Rental, a Rivers & Rails Package, and a new Saturday Pass for those folks that would like more time to hike and explore Blue Heron.

Your ticket aboard the K&T Special also includes admission to the McCreary County Museum (www.mccrearymuseum.com) which is located in the Historic District and is within walking distance of the Depot. The Museum focuses on early pioneer life through the boom times of the Stearns Coal & Lumber Company. You should allow 1½ to 2 hours to spend touring the Museum as well as shopping in one of the many unique craft and gift shops in downtown Stearns. The railway has live bluegrass music in the depot half an hour before each train departs.

The Big South Fork Scenic Railway (BSFSR) has special event trains in October and December. During October, adults can enjoy the Haunted Hollow Express the last three Friday and Saturday nights at 7:30 p.m. The Trick or Treat Train for Tots departs on the last Friday and Saturday at 6:00 p.m. and the kids will also enjoy treating with the Merchants in Historic Stearns. The Santa Express runs the first three Saturdays of December. The new nighttime excursion, Painted Rocks & Twinkle Train, departs the first three Fridays and Saturdays and showcases the natural formations along the railway as visitors have never seen them before.

The BSFSR excursion cars range from enclosed to open air and passengers are seated on a first come, first serve basis. Passengers should dress accordingly for the weather. The Railway operates rain or shine and all trains depart on Eastern Time. For more information or reservations on Big South Fork Scenic Railway, go to www.bsfsry.com or call 800-462-5664.

What I love about Cedar Creek Cattle Company is the crew! Jo and Mike,

owners of Cedar Creek Cattle Company are laid back and you can tell they love what they do. What started out as a Black An-gus Farm, where Jo raised and sold her fine cattle, turned into something more grandi-ose. Mike, who has a full-time corporate job during the day in the telecommunica-tions industry, has a love for giving back and helping children. This big piece of land that his mom, Jo, bought was just the right land and the right area to cultivate his vision for a camp for underprivileged children.

Jo, the money manager, has had to hold the reins so they could build this up — step by step. Then Dallas arrived. He was hired to help them clean the land, build trails, and break horses. What they found in Dallas was an innate ability to show guests a good time and to introduce novice riders to the horse and to get them comfortable with riding. Dallas is gentle, sweet and has such patience with all riders. One day that we were there, we met Paul from Florida. He owns a second home in the Big South Fork region and had always wanted to herd cattle. So they let their cattle out

CEDAR CREEK CATTLE CoMPANyand gave Paul the experience that he always dreamed of. He came back from the pasture and trails with a boyish grin on his face hav-ing fulfilled his dream. Though he was tired, he was so happy. He came back from the ex-perience with a memory to last his lifetime to share with family, and a story to tell his grand-children and colleagues back in Florida.

Cedar Creek Cattle Company will give you the experience that you are looking for; whether it is a one hour trip, half day, a full day or a weekend ride along their trails, at East Fork Stables, or at Dale Hollow Lake. They have the horses for lease, the cowboys and the gear to make your ride an enjoyable

and memorable one. Want to camp out, eat a meal along the trail? They can make it happen. How about a cowgirl’s get-away? Let them create a weekend package that fits the cow-girl’s pleasures. Bed and breakfast, chalet, teepee or rustic cabin, Cedar Creek Cattle Company can organize a weekend of fun for anyone. Cedar Creek Cattle Company is conve-niently located off of Hwy. 127, about thirty minutes north of the I-40 exit in Crossville.

MAI FEST AT BACARASK urt Schlegel at Bacaras con-

tinues to prepare and serve some outstanding authentic Ger-man cuisine at his charming and cozy restaurant tucked away minutes from Pickett State Park. Growing up in a German family makes me appreciate Kurt’s au-thentic Wiener schnitzel, sauerbra-ten, red cabbage and his famous

iron pan dish —a big juicy steak slow cooked to perfection, fried potatoes and steamed vegetables.

I recently met a few gentlemen from Chattanooga that were on a guys’ weekend getaway, centered on Bacaras Oktoberfest and hiking at Pickett State Park and the Big South Fork. I visited with them, had a big Oktoberfest special “sampler Teller”, listened to the German music, the cowbells and some of my favorite tunes. The musician from Gatlinburg entertained us while several couples enjoyed doing the German polka and waltzes. I even played the cowbells alongside him for a while. It was truly an entertaining evening and the food was so good. Bacaras is a must either after your hike or a day trip to Pickett State Park to enjoy the many well marked trails in the area. In 2009, Kurt plans on adding another event to his repertoire, the first annual “Maifest” to be held on May 2nd, 2009 with live music, entertainment and of course lots of Ger-man delights. Reservations are recommended, (931) 879-7121.

QuILTING ARouND DHL


Quilts and quilting are as much a part of life in the area as hunting and

fishing. The need for quilts came with the first settlers who had to “make do” with whatever was available. Worn-out clothing, feed sacks, fertilizer bags and any other scraps were used to make the 3-layer coverings that kept families warm in the cold and damp winters of the Up-per Cumberland. Usually families grew, picked and hand-ginned the cotton they used for stuffing the quilts to provide that extra layer of warmth.

The quilting skills have been handed down through the generations where the activity of quilting provided educa-tional and social opportunities. Youngsters might crawl around on the floor underneath the quilt-ing frame, thread the needles or take a few stitches. Over time, they would absorb the skills they would later need to take their place at the quilting frame.

Children might also learn math and design techniques in the pursuit of their favorite quilt. Quilting bees were the social gathering of several women who would sew the decorative top, the stuffing and the back-ing together all across the body of the quilt to keep the stuffing from shifting. This was often an all-day affair with chatting and singing, lunch at midday and lots of iced tea. The piecing of the top was usually done by the host-ess and her friends would come to help finish it up. This could be likened to a house-raising.

Sometimes the quilt was a communal gift to a new bride-to-be or for a new baby. Quilting was a creative outlet for

the women whose daily activities had more than their share of drudgery.

With the development of technology and sewing machines, quilts have been replaced with blankets to keep our beds warm. Despite this, women continue to quilt because it is a creative outlet. They may machine stitch the pieces and ma-chine quilt the finished product, but the real satisfaction comes from the design process. Often communities will have quilt shows that feature both old and new quilts. As a part of the show, some of the women may have classes to teach newcomers the skills of quilting. Invari-ably these shows bring out family stories

that speak to everyone. Such stories as the names of the quilters or families em-broidered on the squares, or an event the quilter wanted to commemorate would make the quilt a family heirloom.

A young girl might be given several pieces of fabric and told to design a quilt around them and, in the process, would learn the craft. A school class might take scraps of fabric leftover from student’s

dresses and use them to inspire a de-sign. The quilt would then be auctioned to earn money for the school. Quilts to commemorate a graduating class or to honor a special teacher might also be used to raise money for the schools.

Quilts guilds have formed in several com-munities of the Upper Cumberland. These provide both social interaction and chal-lenges to learn new techniques. Cookeville, Algood, Jamestown and Fairfield Glade all have guilds and through these sponsor an-nual shows, festivals and exhibits around the region. Often these events are fund-raisers for community services. As people who come to the shows visit with each oth-

er they often reconnect with family members and friends or discover new bits of their family story. But in the end the real value today of quilting is the way the many piec-es that go into a quilt parallel the many pieces that make up a family and its history. It is a connection to the past and an inspiration for the future.

In 2008, The Friends of Cordell Hull decided to add a Grandma’s Quilt Contest to add to the Cord-ell Hull Folk Festival. The partici-pation was outstanding. There were hundreds of entries, each with their own story. There were

2 categories, ‘1950 and Before’ and ‘1950 and Up’. It was obvious that each was a treasured possession.

Some of the older quilts, even though necessary for survival, were works of art. These artists had used their precious re-sources so well. The newer quilts were often made for the love of the art. Each stitch created with love and proudly dis-played.

QuILTING – THE FABRIC oF CoMMuNITy By: Betty Eliassen and Janice Neal

The Algood Quilt Festival has recently received a makeover and has been

put on the map, so to speak, through the leadership of Ruth Dyal, the new Up-per Cumberland Tourism Director. Ruth got the momentum going by organizing the quilting ladies in Algood and helping them to market and promote their an-nual quilt festival to a broader audience.

This annual cultural event showcases the quilt and needle arts of the region and provides education and a meeting place for experts in the related fields. This is a major fundraiser for the Algood Senior Center which has recently expanded and included in the Cumberland Quilt Trail. Monroe County, Kentucky is also put-ting a Quilt Trail together. Their map can

be accessed at the Tompkinsville Inn in Tompkinsville, KY. These are events that will showcase the region by taking you through the picturesque roads of the re-gion and sharing with you more about the historic and cultural fabric of the region.

Dyer Drug Co. in downtown Albany has recently been purchased by pharmacist Arica

Conner Collins and her husband James. The oldest established drugstore in Albany needed some fresh ideas and new owners, Arica and her husband felt like it was time to come “home” and take on this challenge. Dyer Drug Co. today invites you with bright lighting and a store full of wedding and baby gifts, a full line of Hallmark

cards, gift wrapping, Case knives, a full line of seasonal table wear, home decorations, and gifts. I was amazed to see a full line of Noritake fine china and wedding crystal, perfect for a gift registry or a great gift for any occasion. They have the “Gund” line of baby items, plus other great baby shower gifts. They offer free gift wrapping service everyday. Arica and her team pride themselves on having excellent service and will continue to expand their offerings in to 2009. They offer free delivery service within the Albany, Clinton County area and sometimes make occasional deliveries outside this area. When you are in downtown Albany’s square, make sure that you visit Arica and James at Dyer Drug Co. and buy an old fashioned Coca-Cola glass bottle soda and take a peek at some of their great new merchandise. Make sure that you tell Arica that “Annie” sent you.
