Day 55

A short walk from the hotel is the Jack Daniel’s Distillery so we booked a “dry” tour (ever the driver) for 10:25, and popped back to the hotel to pack the car.

I’ve always assume that Jack Daniel wouldn’t have liked the thought of people mixing his drink with Coke, but apparently he used to mix it with things too.

The charcoal that’s used to filter the whiskey is made on site too, and the fuel to light the fire is… whiskey. All Jack Daniels is made in Lynchburg.

A short couple of hours drive and we’re across the border into Alabama, out 25th State.

On the Interstate as we drove through Huntsville we saw the large Space Rockets at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center. One of which, the Saturn 1B rocket, has been there for forty years but is in a state of repair and it’s reported that it may have to come down.
