An Inside Look at Wookin’ Overtime

The only stop on the way is for a 24-pack of Ale-8-One, the commonwealth's glass bottle specialty. The 200-mile drive back to Illinois is all too familiar. As you approach Exit 130, the city skyline fades into the rearview. It’s a straight two-lane road lined with corn fields as far as the eye can see from here. Look out the window, hypnotized by the pump horse's never-ending motion. They don’t have those back in Kentucky. The landscape in the distance begins to deepen and darken as you come up on the remnants of the Pattiki Coal Mine. Things begin to feel a little more like Kentucky.
