A PETTICOAT JUNCTION TOWN........GLENDALE, KY

About a month ago, Hubby and I took a little venture to Glendale, Ky.  It's such a quaint little town.  Very small with a train running through it's downtown.  I think it has a "Petticoat Junction" appeal to it.

Look at this precious farmhouse.............I LOVE it!!


                                 Look at the old bicycle..........Oh, what a lovely porch!
I will miss a porch when we move to "the cottage"......but I've got something in mind for that!



We ate at the famous "Whistle Stop".  Good Food!  It was adorable inside........the building sits next to the railroad tracks.......the tracks are to the right of the pole


                                  Neat old buildings with lovely shops inside


                                                  VINTAGE and ANTIQUES galore!


               So many pretty houses.........this one grabbed my heart too!  It's sooo SWEET!
                            Look at the log cabin to the left in the picture


A simple house..........but look at the beautiful fretwork/gingerbread detailing the house.  And who can't love that green metal roof!


This is one of the oldest buildings on the main drag. (Main st. on the right of building)  This front faces the railroad track.
There were many more pics I could have taken.......one was a Bed and Breakfast called Petticoat Junction!  It sat next to the RR tracks....just like the old t.v. show!

I hope you enjoyed your little tour......hubby and I enjoyed our day there!!  Blessings and a wonderful week~~~Roxie

  12. Hi Roxie, I loved tagging along on your day trip. This town is so charming. I can almost hear the train whistle blowing as I sit on one of those front porches gently swinging and sipping lemonade.
    Here's to simpler times and laid back afternoons.
    Thanks for sharing your photos with us.
    Your blogging sister, Connie :)
