I've been told US Route 60, Shelbyville Road, is the gateway highway for drug trafficking throughout Kentucky and the USA. In walking from Louisville to Shelbyville it did appear to be true after speaking with a number of individuals I'd encountered along the way.
Midland Trail: The early routing of the Midland Trail, from east to west, began in either New York City or Washington, D.C. and continued through Richmond and Clifton Forge, Virginia to Charleston, West Virginia and passed on through Morehead, KY to Lexington, Kentucky; Louisville, Kentucky; Vincennes, Indiana; Salem, Illinois; St. Louis, Missouri; Sedalia, Missouri; Kansas City, Missouri and Topeka, Kansas; to Limon, Colorado and then on to Denver, Colorado.
From Denver, the original routing split several ways to cross the rockies via Berthoud Pass, Tennessee Pass, Cochetopa Pass, and Monarch Pass. All routings converged in Grand Junction, Colorado and continued into Utah through Green River, Utah and Salt Lake City. Past Salt Lake City, the routing moved southward across the Salt Lake Desert on the same routing as the Lincoln Highway through Iosepa, Utah, Orr's Ranch, Fish Springs Ranch, and Ibapah, Utah.
This part of the route was never popular, the state favoring the Victory Highway routing to the north, which is the basic alignment later followed by Interstate 80, and is now largely inaccessible as it is part of the Dugway Proving Grounds. In central Nevada, the highway continued across the Great Basin Desert through Ely and Tonopah then turning south at Goldfield in the Amargosa Desert and then west into California at Lida and over the Inyo Mountains and White Mountains through Westgard Pass.
At the junction in Big Pine, California in the Owens Valley, the original routing then split into four options:
The first through Mammoth Lakes, Mono Lake, Yosemite, and Stockton to San Francisco.
The second through Bridgeport, California, Lake Tahoe, and Placerville to Sacramento and then San Francisco.
The third south through Independence and Mojave in the Mojave Desert, and then west through Tehachapi Pass to the San Joaquin Valley, and then northward through Merced and Modesto to San Francisco.
The fourth continuing southward from Mojave through Willow Springs to Los Angeles. By the time the Automobile Club of Southern California had prepared their 1917 map of the state, the fourth routing, through Mojave and Willow Springs to Los Angeles, had become the main routing for the Midland Trail in California.
Following a major realignment of the route and assumption into the state highway system around 1922, the main Midland Trail alignment in California bypassed early stagecoach-era stops at Freeman and Willow Springs and at the Neuralia railroad siding, and now routed through Red Rock Canyon to Mojave. The earlier alignment took a high line route to the west in the Sierra Nevada and Scodie Mountains foothills around it following the Los Angeles Aqueduct route past Jawbone Canyon, thence following the Southern Pacific railroad tracks through Rosamond and Lancaster and on to Los Angeles, following the route that was later assigned to U.S. Route 6—the Sierra Highway) in 1937.
Various alignments of this portion of the trail followed the late 19th century Twenty-mule team roads built to haul gold from the Cerro Gordo Mines across the Mojave Desert. and roads built for the early 20th century construction of the Los Angeles Aqueduct.
The title of each photo in this series is a translated line from a poem found in the Chapel of Bones. See the full poem in the original language here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capela_dos_Ossos#Poem .
From our tour guide - the Franciscan monks who used the bones of approximately 5000 corpses, built this to send a message to the nobles that in death, no one can tell the difference between the rich and the poor, royal or common.
盼我瘋魔，
還盼我孑孓不獨活。
想我冷艷，
還想我輕佻又隨便。

It was a beautiful Fall day today as we watched this particular fisherman bring in a few fish - one which resembled a Walleye - there were a number of small boats out there. I was stunned there were any fish remaining in the Ohio near Louisville as polluted as it is. The runoff from Indiana as you will see in a following photo teems with surface oil with a reddish tinge. The "beach" itself is litter infested with plastic bottles, jugs, tires, drums and oil containers. What humans, the power companies and industries upstream have done to this river, future generations and the people who live along it and downstream is an abomination and criminal.
Cheltenham Wetlands Park was once part of the U.S. Naval Radio Station, Cheltenham, Maryland. It was commissioned in 1939.
“The original antenna fields, comprising creosoted wood telephone poles and metal antenna towers, were located in the acreage surrounding the buildings. All metal antenna poles have been removed from the installation. Some abandoned creosoted wood poles remain in the wooded and swampy sections of the installation.
Established as a radio receiving station before World War II, the installation's mission evolved to administration during the Cold War era.”
There was some type of other animal in this cave but I wouldn't let Pancake go in too far - she makes a particular noise when she spots a sick or wounded animal, which she did.

The Haunted Tunnel In Louisville That’s Not For The Faint Of Heart
Posted in Louisville August 01, 2017 by Myan Mai
Editor’s note: an earlier version of this article stated the cave is open for exploration. This is incorrect. The cave is closed to the public due to safety concerns.
If anyone brings up a haunted tunnel in Louisville, they’re most likely referring to the infamous “body chute” found at Waverly Hills Sanatorium. It’s been covered by many paranormal experts and television shows, and is available for exploration via paid guided tours. Famous as it may be, Waverly Hills isn’t the only haunted tunnel around here; there are plenty of other locations in Louisville that are rumored to be haunted, one of which is an extremely creepy tunnel. It’s nicknamed Sauerkraut Cave and is hidden in the middle of E.P. Tom Sawyer State Park, completely unknown to most of the visitors who jog right past it. Of course, as with most hidden tunnels, Sauerkraut Cave comes with a dark, hidden past…
E.P. Tom Sawyer Park was once known as Central State Hospital, or the "Lakeland Asylum."
Built in 1873, this property was constructed to accommodate a maximum of 1600 people, but by 1940 the hospital housed over 2400. These cramped, understaffed quarters had horrible living conditions for the patients, many of which were mentally ill, elderly, and even just the impoverished left with nowhere else to go. Sadly, crude and often fatal treatments such as lobotomies occurred and the death count was high. Today, a wooden fence has been rebuilt around the old cemetery to remember those who suffered and passed here, which is estimated to be around 5,000.
By the 1960s, the attitude toward the treatment of mental illness began to shift and the Courier Journal published several articles criticizing the conditions of the hospital.
As people began to focus on more effective short term care, the hospital lost funding and eventually went bankrupt. Central State Hospital was demolished in 1997, as the interior had become badly deteriorated and dangerous.
Today, Sauerkraut Cave is the only remaining portion of the old hospital.
This "cave" was built by the hospital and used for food storage. The unit is said to have gained its name due to the great amount of sauerkraut that was once stored here. Some believe that patients used this tunnel to hide and escape from the hospital, while others have more sinister theories about what may have happened here.
Unfortunately, the cave is not open to the public due to safety concerns.
This tunnel is incredibly creepy, even without the backstory of the asylum. Since the cave is inaccessible to the public, you'll want to check out this spooky video by YouTube user Artificial Mayo that shows just how creepy, dark, and damp this tunnel really is!
